What in the world was I thinking?
What are the biggest beauty mistakes that you've made? Things that you initially thought were good ideas, but then you look back on them and question your sanity.
I have a few
1. During my senior year of high school, I began dying my hair. First, light brown and then, bright red. The red dye starting washing out and lightening right after I had it applied. The combination of the two colors left a burnt orangy brown color on my hair. Here comes the mistake. The night before my debutante ball, I decided to get a weave. The only color that matched my "new" hair color was this bright orange shade of brown (#33 for those of you familiar with weave hair color). I didn't really think anything of it at the time. I was supposed to be getting twists in the front with long layers in the back. It probably would have been pretty if it was a normal color. But, because of the color, I came out looking like a bright orange poodle.
2. In Philly, every little nail salon has a lady who waxes eyebrows. I miss it now that I'm in Florida because everyone down here shaves them. Anyway, my normal lady was backed up and there was about an hour wait. I was going to get my senior picture taken so I decided to go to another nail salon. The lady there told me that my normal person was shaping my eyebrows wrong and that she was going to have to fix it if I wanted them to look good. Me, being sixteen, I told her to go ahead. Well, she shaped each eyebrow differently than the other. The right was much higher than the left one. In my pictures, I looked I was questioning the photographer the entire time.
