I got back from St. Louis last Wednesday, sadness.
I've been busy with work and school. I cut Vinta's hair, it looked sexy. But of course it did, she is hot.
Too bad you can't really see the cut there, though, haha.
It's amazing, I was freaking out last week coloring her hair, when I feel more comfortable with color... but cutting it I only just got the teacher to double check a few times to be sure I was doing it right, just to be safe.
I need more guests, though. I just hate going up to people and handing them my business card. I feel like I'm saying "Hey, your hair looks butt-ugly." When it's really "Hey, I need guests"
I cut Rob's sister's boyfriend's (haha) hair when I was in St. Louis. I got rid of 11+ inches. He then dyed it black because he's a moron and doesn't realize you don't have to have black hair to have a haircut, just because it was on an emo kid.
Don't get me wrong, I want to dye my hair black, and I have a weakness for emo hair... but when I graduate I'll hopefully be making 20k a year, and someday I'm hoping to make 80k (my boyfriend's grandmother makes 50k, so I know it's totally possible to make that much as a hairstylist in St. Louis, and I've heard of a girl set to make 80k in Tuscaloosa, AL), I doubt Zeke makes even 8k a year and in three years he might just finally be making 10k a year, Jessie doesn't have a job and they have a child they can't afford without the help of their families.. like Jessie's grandma paying for formula. If they were making money and doing their job and taking care of shit, I don't care if they dye their hair green with their initials shaved in their head... but they need to find real jobs, and they need to save their money. Choosing to keep their baby and not give her up to somebody who could properly care for her was their decision, now they should try their hardest to give her everything she deserves, which means they forfeited their youth and the dying their hair stupid colors or at all when they can't afford food for her. But I'm letting it go, because at worst they'll have to give up Lyla and I hope if it comes to that it'll be after I've moved up there so I can adopt her... or they'll finally realize they need to grow up and take care of her. All I can do is when I move up there and make good money, buy her loud presents and take her all these cool places her parents can't afford to take her, and be the cool Aunt Sadie.
I tried showingZeke how to blowdry it and he just gave me this look, finally I said for him to try and he was like "...I don't know how to blowdry my hair." I wanted to be like "Oh, it's about as simple as using a condom... oh right, you couldn't figure that out, either." But seriously, you take the fucking blowdryer, and you point it at your head. Other than the swoop bangs, there's nothing to it. It would've been easier for him than me, as he is 5'10" and I am 5'7" and he was standing, so it was hard to reach. I actually had Rob's grandma finish the cut 'cause my arms got tired after 3 hours (I used her scissors which are three inches long from top to bottom and had to do my one-length to get the basic shape, then my layers). He was sitting for the cut, but I still had to raise my arms high to accommodate the length of his hair.I'm still a bit slow, don't get me wrong... but I just started cutting hair, it's to be expected. Plus, I'm a perfectionist. Rob's grandma kept saying how she could never be so precise, haha.
I was going to cut Rob's hair, but I didn't get the chance to... and I didn't want to cut it at the hotel even though I had my scissors. I like the way his hair is cut, it suits him... so I figured his grandma could cut it for him again as the way he has it cut now is how I told her to cut it two years ago, haha. She did the back different than what I wanted, but for Rob it works on him, so I left it. We visited the sister school to mine, it was embarrassing bringing Rob in as he hadn't shaved before I came and he looked like a hobo, haha. It's alright, I love him.
Oh, and I am now engaged, yay. I don't have a ring, or a really sweet engagement story. It suits Rob, Vinta even said it sounds like him, haha. The ring I knew I wouldn't get as he had to wipe out his savings to get us a hotel. But yeah, I'm looking at rings and I'll tell him what I want and let him get it when he can. I want a ring that is so simple, and not a traditional engagement ring, so I can't find it. I want the smallest diamond set into the band, haha. But I'll probably just get the traditional solitaire.
And now, photos:
My (future) niece, and her mom. Haha, Rob got this photo while I was cutting Zeke's hair.
Rob and I in the hotel!
I always love photos of him and me kissing, maybe I'm a whore like that.
He took this one, haha.
I stole his glasses :3
I also cut my nails after the visit :/ They were so long, I felt uncomfortable touching people, so I never actually held the baby because of it

And then I went to a bachlorette party and wedding after I got back, haha.
Her sister gave her masks to give us based on our personality, I got "tease". I don't think she was going by personality, but it was fitting, haha... Zach has told me that I'm one enough times.
Haha, I'm not posting my friends from the party as they're good people and I don't think they'd approve or appreciate being placed on a porn site, lol.
Yay, my marcell iron burn is almost gone!
