And The Verdicts In

After receiving a few comments that the brown makes me look older...that's all I needed to hear to make up my mind!LOL

OLDER!

That is worse than the 4 letter swear word...it's a 5 letter nightmare! But I definitely appreciate the honesty!

So I will stay blond, dread doing my two step process but will suffer through it not to look older. Don't get me wrong, I'm the happiest I've ever been in my life, wrinkles and all. My 40's have brought me confidence, peace, love, fulfillment and a sense of finally feeling...good enough.

Good enough for what? I don't know, but just GOOD ENOUGH. Women in general have this issue I think of always needing to please- friends, family, boyfriend, husband, kids...we are in search of perfection. Always waiting to feel good enough.

Well I finally reached the point now to know that I was ALWAYS good enough. I was just too focused on everything that was wrong with me instead of everything that is right!

Know that no matter what you look like, hair color, weight, flaws, career, friendships, love life or lack of one...YOU ARE SPECIAL and GOOD ENOUGH!

You've made the right decision - to stay blonde. It's known as a fact that dark hair color makes one look more mature, and what woman would like that? Besides, your husband fell in love with a blonde chick not with a dark-haired one. So, that's one sure way to preserve his love for you.
