It never ceases to amaze me how long it takes to get your hair colored and highlighted - AND that I continue to do it!
The lady next to me was getting 'threaded'. She was lying back a bit and the cosmetologist was hovering over her, her hands doing an intricate dance in front of her face.
They do quite a few things at the Day Spa I go to, but this looked like she was summoning spirits to depart, and that isn't listed in the treatments offered. Looking closer - I noticed the thread she was holding and the customer periodically wiping away tears. Then I figured it out: 'threading'. I had read somewhere about this ancient practice for hair removal.
I was curious, and I needed my brows whipped into shape - so added this to my 'day of vanity'.
The cosmetologists were impressed with my lack of tears saying I must have a high pain threshold - but I'm thinking: whats a pile of hair being ripped out of my brow to my morphine?
Got home from my 'vanity' appointment, took some silly hair photos, read some mail and here I am: 4:00pm and that is all I have to show for the day.
Pathetic ...

Pathetic, what? That sounds fabulous! I have been threading since 1995 (yes, I remember when. Senior Prom.) It is the best way to go. Your hair is just as awesome as usual, so I can see why you keep doing what you are doing.
Your hair looks amazing. I would guess that it does not take me as long to get my hair colored and highlighted. You have a lot of hair, lady! Gorgeous hair, which I am jealous of.
Threading is not in the cards for me. I have a low pain tolerance, and would probably be crying like a baby before I was done. Unless I had some of your morphine....
I so miss threading. People here just look at me like I'm nuts when I ask about it.
Threading is fabulous! But I have to take motrin before I go in, otherwise I'll burst into tears. I have, like, no pain tolerance. At all.
Can you tell Kimberly and I are related?
Laura - yes - you seem to posess some of the same genes I've noticed!
