Simple joys, entry 1.

I dyed my hair yesterday and followed a tutorial for headband curls, which needs neither hair products nor heat... Both things which my hair don't like!
It was very simple to do, even in my 1am zombiefied state. :) I went to sleep with it in and it was very comfortable and actually really nice not to have hair in my face/eyes/nose/mouth. (If you'd like to see photos of me doing this then let me know, but if you google "headband curls" it'll show you how to do it on various blogs and YouTube videos.)
I took the band off in the morning and combed the curls through with my fingers only... It looked really nice! I was impressed, my hair usually turns out looking the same no matter what I do. (So I usually do nothing with it.) Perhaps a little crazy and pouffy to start with but it felt very bouncy and very different to my usual boring straight hair, which is what I was aiming for. ;)

We went out to dinner in the late afternoon and I felt good, though slightly paranoid as it had rained a little on the walk to the restaurant and I couldn't for the life of me get the water to run clear in the shower last night so I thought I probably had pink streaks running down my face. (I didn't.)
Walked "the long way" home and got soaked, lost a lot of the curls even with my hood up but we did have a lovely day and I will certainly be trying the headband thing again very soon! Must try and get the excess dye out of my hair/head though as it'd be nice not to have to sleep on a towel for fear of everything looking like a blood bath. :D
Oh and I finished the latest Merbear this morning. I really enjoy making them!

Pop on over to my Facebook page (link at side --->) if you haven't already too, as I try and keep that updated as much as I can. :)
Thanks much for reading,
