Ashley's Ponytail

I realize that this might seem like a very odd thing to blog about, but isn't that the point of a blog? To just talk about whatever you want?! So today it is going to be my hair!

I got the title for this blog from this really cute children's book called "Stephanie's Ponytail". The book is about how much Stephanie loved her ponytail, but she didn't love the fact that her classmates were copying her. Every day she would wear her hair to school a different way and the next day the whole class (even the teacher) would have copied her creative ponytail style. Well, I got the idea to blog about this as I was running tonight and for the first time in YEARS I felt my ponytail swinging! It was such a strange feeling, but let me just say... I LOVE MY PONYTAIL! I thought it would be fun to take a little trip through my many hairstyles over the last couple of years. Now if you want to copy my hairstyles, that is fine with me. Unlike Stephanie, I will not be upset, but you should probably go ahead and make friends with your hairdresser because I can never make up my mind about my style. Until now at least...

This is probably the longest (and "blondest", if that is a word) that my hair has ever been...

And then it turned into this wonderful long curly look...(do you sense the sarcasm here?!)

 And then I got bored with the long look, so it went to this short look.


And then I got bored with the blonde and it went to a brownish redish color...


 And for those of you that call yourself my friend...YOU ARE WRONG FOR THAT. Why did nobody tell me that my hair looked like it was on FIRE?! Thank you mother for trying and eventually talking me out of this!

And this brings us to the longest most grueling part of the story...the growing out process. I have successfully gone from that spectacular style (HA!) in the above picture to a much different color with a longer style in less than a year. I have wanted to cut it SO many times, but thank you Emma (my fab hairdresser) for not allowing me to! I am just like Stephanie! I love my ponytail! :)  For now....but I do have a hair appointment tomorrow. Who knows what will happen when I get in that chair!?
