New Look


After a few weeks of threats from Jill's mom, Terri the ladies at Ziggy's Hair Salon in Ingersoll (Terri's salon) finally got their hands on me to fix the mess Katrina Miller made of my hair at the last round of the World Cup in Schladming. I have been putting the whole event off since I knew it was going to take hours. Sure enough...3 hours, 50+ pieces of foil and three different colours of hair and voila- a new look! After sitting still for nearly 2 hours while Tabitha put the foils in, I had to take the opportunity to amuse myself and everyone into the salon and turn my foil covered head into a Knights Helmet! After all our playing around the colour turned out great!
Unfortunately Terri couldn't just stop there. After discovering that I have never had my ears pierced and have chickened out of the event quite a few times in the past, she jumped at my suggestion that I might want them done now. Without a moment to question myself we had the gun out and next thing I knew I was trying hard to sit still. I am proud of myself....Terri said I didn't flinch nearly as bad as the 2 year olds she normally pierces! Thank you both Terri and Tabitha for all the laughs today.
