crazy colors and a perv..

So I haven't posted to this in forev.. Let's see work is going alright.. finally getting caught up on all the quotes.. it's been crazy busy.. everyone is shopping their rates.. Which is to be expected with our economy.. Oh yeah.. I got some extensions done, they fell out after a week and a half.. still dealing with that stylist trying to get some of my money back. Then my friend Shaylee at school did them again this week.. she has never done them before and they are way better.. some people are just naturals.. I wish that I was with hair.

I had a girl come in tonight for a color of platinum blondish and also some red purple dark brown color.. (what I used to do sometimes.. kindof miss the crazy colors..) let's just say that it was such a challenge.. I was the last one at school tonight except for my friend Megan that waited for me.. Oh and that brings me to another story of tonight.. My friend Megan got a guy in there tonight that wanted his hair colored.. well the color card that we keep track of clients on said do not leave your color bowl or brush with him.. well that was an understatement.. so she starts coloring his hair, and he just keeps telling her to leave some extra dye for him??? she asked if he wanted her to touch up his mustache or beard.. not understanding.. finally she just came to the cosmo side and was talking to the instructor Rayma and said that this guy is freaking out and wants the extra color and so on.. well come to find out he likes to take the color bowl and extra color and go to the bathroom to color his eyebrows.. yeah right.. so Rayma the instructor went over there after he freaked out and made Megan cry (she is a tough girl) cause she rinsed out her color bowl and didn't give him any.. well Rayma went over there and asked him flat out what the deal is, and he said that he wanted to color his eyebrows, and also his "cookie" seriously??? what a perv.. needless to say Megan just stayed on the cosmo side and helped me with my crazy color.. and to think before lab she said that we should just sluff and not go.. on nights like this I wish I would have.. but I haven't missed a night of school this whole semester..

So yeah.. that is my crazy drama at school.. and trust me there is some drama.. I am in beauty school full of women with a few men.. I hear so much every night I am not sure where to put it all.. too much sometimes.. Well I better get going got to TRY to fall asleep for another day.. can't wait for this weekend.. to spend time with all the family.. yay! ;)

What a mess..

This week hasn't been my best week.. no surprise there.. So I had some pretty long gorgeous extensions put into my hair.. oh yeah.. I paid a pretty few too many pennys to get it done, and here it is exactly a week and a half later and yeah I no longer have any extensions.. they were all falling out.. It's ridiculous.. I honestly don't think the girl that did them knew what she was doing, first of all she put newspaper elastic bands in my hair, and also used blonde thread to sew in my brown extensions.. what a mess.. then she just suggested that I have someone take a black marker and color the blonde threads.. can we say ghetto.. So I went back to the salon yesterday and she had to cut out the extensions, and re-braid the bottom row and then sew them back in.. which was great.. it took an extra hour out of my time.. then the next day the middle row is falling out.. seriously.. I am fed up I work full time and go to school full time, and I don't have time to keep going back to Tangles Salon to have her sew them back in every other day.... so freakin retarded..

Anyways my instructor at school saw it and she called the stylist for me too since she was taking my calls (how convienant) until I call from another phone.. then magically she answers.. anyways my instructor told her that she should give me all of my money since the service wasn't done in a professional manner, and that her customer service sucks basically.. well now I have this girl keep calling me and arguing with me about the refund.. seriously I do understand that she did spend some time on my hair, but the service I requested and the service I received sucked.. extensions are supposed to last in your hair up to 3 months.. mine is barely making it past a week.. Then I tried to call the owner of the salon and they said that I most likely will not be getting any of my money back, and they didn't even listen to my complaint.. Then my instructor said tonight that she just heard that like 10 girls just wanted out of that salon and quit.. oh yeah.. I know how to pick em'.

So needless to say I was all excited to have long, beautiful, flowing locks of hair, and now I have nothing, all the extensions have been removed, a stylist that won't give me my money back, and oh yeah the date from this past weekend has gone psycho on me and won't leave me alone..

At least I am giving the opportunity to some gals at school to put in my extensions again.. but not until next week. :(

At least my head is getting rest of the headaches and no braids poking me in the head all night.

Still though what a waste of money, for me to end up with nothing in the long run.

I did learn tonight at school how many friends I have, and how many helped me out, and have my back. So I guess I can say that I have a posse behind me now.. lol..

Storm coming in..

So here I am waiting to fall asleep.. I can hear the wind blowing hard outside my window.. There is a storm coming in.. which means perfect sleeping weather if it isn't too rough. I am not too thrilled to see what this storm in bringing.. unless it is just rain.. I love the rain. I love when the wind blows because you know changes are coming.. I am going to go now.. I have soo many words running through my head.. I can't put them all together..

Maybe I will sleep now.

First date of 2009

Yep.. you heard right.. I went on a date tonight. We met up at Fat Cat's Bowling.. we played some arcade games, and did some bowling.. I suggested the we play HORSE while bowling.. it was alright.. not as fun or funny as the time that I went with Bryan.. The guy Kevin is very nice, he has been divorced and has a 3 year old son Jaxson.. It was fun.. I am not totally sure that the chemistry is there.. Does the chemistry come right away.. or after some time????

So I got extensions today.. I love them.. I so have missed having long hair.. not that mine was this thick and gorgeous.. but it is now.. the braids are killing my head!!!! Wow!! I am ice packing my head right now.. I told the girl I would try this, and she said that she has never heard of anyone ice packing it.. but it helps just a tiny bit.. ouchh.. I really hope this headache doesn't last for 4 days..

Here is the dummy with the up-do I did the first night 3 times over.. it turned out really pretty though.

HoPe It KeEpS GeTtInG bEtTeR....

Hooray! Hooray! Whoo Hoo!!! Things are turning around for me.. I am so excited.. come to find out they moved me away because they wanted to keep their eye on another girl, which the next day they cleaned out her locker with police in tow.. and then they kicked her out of school.. Crazy.. Crazy!!! I don't know the full story.. but I got my station back.. whoo hoo.. I am by my friends again.. Hopefully they just don't move them away from me now..

So I did a color on a woman from India tonight.. she had the most beautiful long shiny dark brown healthy hair.. never been colored.. well until tonight anyways.. she wanted a light brown hair.. why is it that we are never happy with the hair that we get??? So anyways I colored all of her hair, her roots at the end processed a little faster than the ends.. and well she is coming back in tomorrow to have it colored darker.. We didn't find the happy medium tonight.. but that is okay because I did my first official hair color at school finally... whoo hoo..

So Saba (the client) was telling me about her life.. and she said that she just moved here from India, because she got married in July 08' and has been here for only a month. It was a ARRANGED MARRIAGE.. yeah.. I didn't think that they did those anymore.. she said that her mom picked several guys for her, and then she got to choose out of those guys.. and his mom picked several women for him, and he had to choose the final one.. crazy!!!!! She said that she now lives here with him finally, and to top it off they live with his parents and grandparents.. I so admire her. I don't think I could just marry someone that my mom picked out for me, and then move to another country and live with all the in-laws.. I am sure she is having a hard time to adjusting or maybe not.. maybe that would just be me.. At the rate that I am dating.. maybe I should get an arranged marriage.. ha ha..

They seem happy together.. she of course wants to have babies right away.. he would like to wait 8 or 9 years.. they definitely have their differences that they need to work out.. but don't we all.

I am just way excited because I can honestly testify that with faith and alot of prayer things can turn around.. I know that Heavenly Father has blessed me in this life with a wonderful family, and the best friends that I could ever wish for.. I am not sure what is in the future for me.. I guess that is why they call it a test so that you can gain your testimony.. I would have to say that mine is growing with everything that I have been through in the past 6 years.. but looking back I know that Heavenly Father has been with me the whole time.. which is the best blessing of all.

I am off to bed.. hope to get some good sleep tonight... I need it.. So excited for Spring break.. yay!! no school all night week.. what a relief. Good night!
