Checking in

It’s been a while since I have updated my blog. Partially, because I am just busy, but mostly because I am finally getting settled with my new look and new attitude towards life. I have been so happy lately, and I have been having fun with my new super short platinum hair. I was walking in a hip part of town yesterday and saw at least 2 other people sporting the same locks so I felt at home. It’s weird because no one has really ever commented on my hair before. I swear I get like 3-5 compliments a day. It’s amazing because I am not in love with it myself. (In fact while I was writing this someone approached me to say they loved my hair. ;)

I am decidedly obsessed with Whole Foods. I am pretty sure they have everything I need there for my complete beauty regiment. Essential oils in health care like grape seed and jojoba are there, and they are reasonably overpriced. I have been using the grape seed oil there on my face and scalp and my skin has never looked better. The oils have been giving my scalp a touch of acne. My doctor prescribed some Retin-A for it and it helps a lot.

It’s been about 3 months. My hair is gaining some pigment in some spots but it’s mostly fine. It’s thicker on the top of my head than the sides. I put the squaric acid compound on my head every other day. I won’t change anything that I feel is working. Meditation continues to be an important part of my mental health and happiness, lots of exercise too.
