How to stop your ability to change hairstyles with two simple words…




I do. Yep, that’s it. Once you are married there is a strange, unexplainable phenomenon that occurs that your hairstyle does not change easily from then on. Ever seen someone who gets married, they are so cute ant trendy for the most part and then 5 years later, they still have that same haircut/style and it’s now not so trendy and falling off the cute wagon.
Some may scoff and say no, that’s not a real thing but oh contraire mine amigos, it is so true. It is a real thing. This morning, I experienced it.
Every morning I rise reluctantly from my soft, pillowy bed snug in the arms of my sexy as all get out husband and trudge to the bathroom. I am a night showerer, which has its ups and downs but mostly ups because I get to sleep in the knowledge that all of that days dirt and grime have been cleansed from me and I am free to sleep carefree. Although, my hair does get the rougher end of it all.
Anyway, there I was, trying to focus on my own reflection and get some inspiration for a new style. Half up? All Up? More of  Duffy style: i.e.


 However, try as I may, the hair was not working. Everything just looked…unnatural is the best way I could describe it. Before I got married, I could try tons of different styles and they all looked like they fit. However, no longer can I do this. I am trapped in my own pre-marriage style! What am I going to do in 5 years and this no longer works? My mom managed after several years to break out, but that took years !What if I’m not as lucky? I guess time will only tell. Until then, I guess I hope the new retro works well for me and that low buns never lose their charm.
