fill in the blank friday.

Hi friends!

It’s Friday and it’s Fill in the Blank time!  Today’s theme is every woman’s crowning glory:  her hair.  Today’s blanks will cover the good, the bad and the ugly.  If you want to play along, fill in the blanks over at your blog (or in the comment section) and then copy your link into the linky at the end of the post. Enjoy!

1.   My last haircut was       I think in February.  I’m probably due for a trim, but I don’t have a stylist!  Brandi – come to Portland and make me pretty!  .

2.  My most daring hair moment was       when I had my hair braided with extentions when we were in Kenya. (don’t judge the gaucho pants – it was 5 years ago and I only thought they were cool for about a month before realizing how ugly and unflattering they truly are.)     .


3.  A hairstyle I’d never be brave enough to try is       a pixie. I think it’s SUPER cute on some people, but I’m pretty sure my face is too chubby for that     .

4.  I’ve always dreamt of being a (blonde, brunette or red-head)   red head.  I absolutely LOVE red hair…super red hair like Christina Hendricks   .


5.  My go-to hair do is       curly and down. I just let it air dry, although until 2 years ago I straightened my hair EVERY day. It’s much healthier now. Here’s the proof since I don’t think any of you have ever seen it straight before     .


6.  My biggest hair disaster was      the time I tried to highlight my own hair at home. The highlights started overprocessing and turning brassy and I started crying. Craig was there and had to help me fix it. It turned out ok, but not my finest hair moment .

7.  A hairstyle I am dying to try is        the braided crown. Actually. I did try it on Wednesday. Here’s the tutorial I used over at Mucho Mucho Bueno Bueno. It was even cuter in real life. Go try it for real. It’s so easy and cute!    .


8.  My best hair day was       my wedding day hair.      .


9.  The worst hairstyle I ever had was   in the 5th grade. My mom dropped me off at the salon, the stylist flipped my chair around and then chopped my hair off completely, despite the fact that I’d just asked for a trim. It was horrible and the week before I started middle school. My mom bought me some cute earrings so I’d look more like a girl. Thankfully photo evidence of this is most likely buried in a box somewhere  


10.  My hair is       an unruly beast that I am finally learning to tame and slowly but surely growing to love.      .

Excited to read about all of your hair joys and sorrows!
Have a great weekend!

  1. Oh I LOVE your braided crown Lauren! You look gorgeous and I love the red lips! LoL on the gaucho pants! EVERY girl/woman I know had these at some point! I think I had like 6 of them. I won’t lie, I still think they’d be great comfy pajamas if I find any of my old ones. Happy Friday!
