I was getting really frustrated with my hair because it was so dry from bleaching and really hard to manage. Then I remembered this oil treatment that I used before (I will tell you more about it another time) and I put some on my hair last week. I have no idea why I stopped using it because this stuff is amazing. My hair actually feels like hair again! 

Oh yeah, and if you know anything about me then you probably know that it is really hard for me to keep my hair the same for any length of time. That's why I now have some bangs and a different colour. I really wanted to keep pastels but then I had a run in with some brighter pink dye. I didn't leave it on long though because I was hoping for a quick fade out and I really love the colours that are going on now after I have washed it/conditioned it a bunch of times. Will it be this colour next week? I'm not making any promises.

Ok, enough about my hair. I am so happy that I picked up this coat last spring. I didn't get too many changes to wear it after I got it but I have been making good use of it so far this fall. It fits so perfectly and makes me feel instantly fancy with it's big huge collar. Definitely a favourite in my closet.

Today is a holiday for Ivan because it is Canadian Thanksgiving so I'm off to enjoy the day!

  10. The bangs look great! And the colours in your hair paired with this coat is just too perfect.
    I know what you mean about getting antsy as far as hair is concerned! I've been growing mine out for ages now, but when it was short I felt no reservations about hacking a couple inches off whenever I felt like it. I called this feeling "snip-happy". Snip snip go the scissors and gone was my hair...

  22. Sounds like I could use whatever the oil is that you are using. I miss having "normal" hair, but I love my bleach blonde! :) Your hair looks beautiful. Love the colors!
