My niece Carlee took a job as a hair dresser on a cruise ship.  Her training takes place in London anywhere from three weeks to three months.  She moves on November 8th.  Then, she’ll be working on the cruise ship for nine months. I may not see her for the next year or so.

I have mixed feelings about her taking this job.  I’m super excited for her and I think it’s a great opportunity, but who’s going to dye and cut my hair for only $20 for the next year? Unfortunately, no one.

I had her cut and dye my hair one last time yesterday.  She dyed it a little darker than my natural color, but it will fade and hopefully create a smooth transition as it grows out.  I guess the good thing is that since I have such short hair, it’ll only look weird for a little bit because the colored ends will just get cut off.
