| TO BE OR NOT TO BE IMPULSIVE |


What are the reasons behind this hair change? A break up? New job? How well do you handle change? Some people can ride the tide of change and impulse works for them, and want to just do it before they change their mind. Others need to stew it over.

| HATERS GONNA HATE |


Everyone has an opinion and they are not always what you want to hear. Are you able to still love your look even if your friends and family are as a big of a fan? Or does their approval have a big effect on you? These are things to consider before making any changes. And honestly real love is if you love it I love it but that isn’t always real life.


| IF YOU GIVE A GIRL NEW HAIR |


How will this effect your make up and your wardrobe?
