Margarita hair
This afternoon, I have a date with a feisty and funny friend named Dana. (No, not the funny and feisty blogger friend named Dana. Although the two do have lots in common which is probably why I love ‘em both!) It has been decided that we will do a little something called “margarita hair.”
Margarita hair: Your beloved friend who used to “do hair” (or “hahhhrrr” as some say around these parts) for a living will highligh/color your “hahhhrrr” at her house while you both drink margaritas and your kids run amok and eat junk.
I’m looking foward to the experience, as is “the boy”. (He loves her kids. And her trampoline.)
Being that I’ve been a blondy-girl all my life, the decided color is far different– a warm brunette. Been wanting to do it for awhile now. (Yes! All of you super hot brunettes have truly inspired me. )
So by 6:30 tonight, I’ll either be laughing, crying, or both. Will I bemoan the color I chose? Is combining alcohol with hair color a bad idea?
Stay tuned…
Have a little review of The Zula Patrol’s “Explore Space!” dvd on behalf of the Parent Bloggers Network at Midwestern Mommy today. Go ‘head. Have a looky-loo. There’s a virtual margarita in it for you!

At first I envisioned you dumping margaritas in your hair and walking away with green, salt-rimmed hair. What you have planned sounds much more fun.
Can’t wait to see pics! Which reminds me, I need to call my stylist–damn roots.

I have a hair color appointment tomorrow and was thinking of going a little darker, too. I was blonde until college and have been highlighting ever since, but I’ve been told my “natural” color is light brown. I tried going darker a couple years ago and I did get some reddish tinges here and there after awhile. I was told hair color “oxidizes” and can do that if you go from blonde to darker. Overall, it was a good experience, but I am once again (naturally???!!!) blonde! Have fun and drink a margarita for me. Will be you sharing photos? :o)

How exciting! I can’t wait to see it.

ooohhhhh…lala!
I was blonde for 25 years, Lisa, and I cut my hair and changed to brunette about three years ago.I must say I love it! I hope you have the same positive experience I did.
And it goes without saying….photos are a must.

That sounds fun! You had better share the results!

Photo, photo! I’m sure you’ll look fab.

Oh ho, rock on MAMA! I can’t wait to see!

Since she was doing the “hahhhrrr,” I hope she had fewer ‘ritas than you!
So how’d it turn out?
Loved MammaLoves’ comment!

My friend and I have done that a couple of times, although we usually have beer instead of margaritas. But for some reason “beer hair” doesn’t sound quite as appealing. New hair color is always exciting. You’ll be sharing pictures, right?

As a brunette, I say go for it. But maybe Dana should hold off on the margaritas until after the coloring is completed.

sounds like too much fun! I think I’ll have a margarita in your honor and hope for the best.
