But can you have teenage rebellion when there’s no one to rebel against? I mean sure my parents disapprove of many things I do and what I have done of late I am very well aware of the fact that my parents would disapprove, but it’s not like they can ground me anymore. So is it rebellion if you can’t be punished for your behavior?
Well, whatever I am going through right now, midlife crisis or teen rebellion, I am really going wild. Of course I shaved my head 4 months ago, but that was for a good cause. It was definitely drastic and life changing though. A few weeks ago I got a tattoo. Well, it was my 3rd, so not unheard of for me although it is my largest.
And now that my hair is growing back I decided to dye it. I have dyed my hair before or done highlights, but I went really bold. Blonde bombshell bold! I warned my family before hand that there was a good possibility I would be a blonde and they all objected. Maybe it is rebellion, I am rebelling against my husband and kids, ha. Because I did it anyways. After much discussion with my hairdresser I made the choice to go blonde. I considered red, but it was just going to be too close to what I already have and I felt that if I was going to do this, then I needed to go all out.
So blonde it was and I think it works for me. My husband said it looks good, my son kept staring at me then said, “It looks like gold, I love it!” My oldest said I look like Pink or Miley Cyrus (which I’m not entirely sure is a seal of approval, but hey maybe I’m hip). My other two daughters haven’t had much to say about it.
I figured with my hair growing in, now is the time to have fun with this. It won’t be as hard to change back if I had it. I don’t hate it, but it is taking some getting used to. I have to go back in 6 weeks to touch up my roots. Right now I’m thinking maybe I need to make it a smidgen darker. But six weeks I just might be good with this shade.
Who knows what other wild and crazy things I’ll have up my sleeves. I think I’m good for now though.
What crazy wild things have you done lately?
