New Year, New Thoughts, New Mindset

 I can't believe how long its been since I have even made a blog on here & being on my social media outlets made me realize how long its even been since I decided to log into my blog. 

For a while I have had a mindset on moving into a different field of service & beauty has been always in the back of my mind. I have always been interested in cosmetology since I was in high but I always had something that was in the way. I love making others feel at their best even if its the outer shell that gives that glow. My mindset during my work days have made me realize how much I want to do something a lot more fulfilling to my mental state as well as my heart. Getting back home frustrated over what the management wasn't happy about no matter how much I tried also didn't help my day to day life knowing that I had to go back to the same place only knowing that the guests I had prepared drinks for were my only good times there as well as the people who I worked for through the years I had gotten to know. Looking back & at those times only makes me realize even more how I would have rather been catering to people even in a different way. Sure, walking all over the place plus lifting all the gallons of products I had to restock sure kept me fit, I know that working out at home, biking, hiking & the gym are also what I love to do. Working at a University also made me realize how much I would rather be doing something for what I want to do like the many students that I met there not just as my guests but also as my workers. 

This mindset has been taking off in a way like applying to different beauty schools but I do have one in particular that I want to go to: The Salon Professional Academy! I have been even working on my own hair posting pictures on my social media accounts but I will be sure to post videos & pictures I don't on my other accounts only to make this one a bit more personal on my journey even posting what I learn here & there. Here are my before when I had some very dark virgin hair & after where I am now with bleached, toned & colored Golden Blonde. 

It took me a while to want to dye my hair after many times of dying it for years prior but I always had a desire to get my hair to a lighter shade so I can get it to other colors like Rose Gold like I did have or even nice purple but more like lavender than the lighter color even if they were to fade since I can always redye it.

I really wanted to start with some very healthy hair so I didn't do a thing to it & started watching videos online about bleaching my hair so it wouldn't fall out 😬 I then saw a hairdresser based in California who had some nice hair & he had some videos about how to bleach hair & not to ruin it. 

This is the link to Brad Mondo's Video if you are more curious.

So for a bit I had some crazy color going on for a bit here so I felt like I needed to change this very much so with some conditioning & some in between time.

So after a few rounds of purple shampoo & and some conditioner along with some blue & purple drops, I had caught onto some silver hair which was toned down a bit by some dark blonde dye.

After a few weeks, I do my roots now & I decided to stick with the dark blonde but only for a bit, knowing how much I did & do like it.

After bleaching my hair this time around, my hair has gotten to this beautiful golden blonde hair but I do plan on putting in some pink for that rose gold but I also want to incorporate some purple, I am thinking of ideas & will be sure to post about it.

 

I don't know if anyone can see but I did do some front pieces with some wax green crayon type of tint, its supposed to be able to wash off unlike the one time I did do green & that was a bi*ch to get out of my hair 😖😆

 I just am looking forward to my journey in life more!

 

It’s been almost a decade!

Not Much to Update

As my title says, there's not much going on in my life today other than the usual... I'm looking into maybe going on the treadmill to get a workout in seeing that I am trying to get myself to want to do a marathon this year seeing that I wasn't trained enough last year. I want to be able to do a half marathon by the end of Summer and Early time Fall only because I'd like to think that those are the best types of weather for a first time marathon runner to run. I want to lose some weight and be fit in health as well as a physical way. 

Not much else to say so here we go...
