Look Like Cinderella

By MJ

One of the steps to becoming a Cinderella aka Princess aka My Best Self is to “Look Like Cinderella”

“…Start with your hair and feet while your body catches up. Become a stunning blonde or a sultry brunette. Get your brows done. Your pores minimized. Your wrinkles eliminated. Treat yourself to the most fabulous shoes you can afford.”

Well I started with my hair, I try to do my brows regularly (so now I’ll won’t just TRY, I will do them regularly). I thankfully do not have to deal with wrinkles yet, at least not that I care about. My pores… well.. I’ll work on those soon. Shoes really aren’t my thing (I’m sure this will all come out as training starts) but I have bursitis in my left foot (plus high arches and wide feet) which makes shoe shopping a nightmare, so right now I’m going to skip the shoe step — but will reserve it for getting myself some good training shoes!

So that leaves my hair. Those who know me know that I don’t ever do much with my hair. Sure, way back when I’ve had my hair permed (once it came out ok!) I’ve done highlights, my hair turns naturally blonder in the summer and my highlights just kept that look into the winter. However for the last 3 or 4 years I’ve done nothing. I’ve let my hair go natural. I have however started noticing some grays popping out!!! (Did I mention I’m only 31!!) Anyway I decided to be daring and try something I’ve NEVER done, with a color that is pretty out there — especially conservative me. So check it out below — my before and after pics.

I plan to keep it red at least until the 3Day. =)
