Nadine, Jamie C., Sydne, me at a friend’s surprise birthday BBQ
It was time. I laughed, I cried, I get my Hair Dreams hair extensions taken out. You might remember my last update back in March, where I got “touched up” a bit and was told that I could keep my extensions in for another two(ish) months…I was elated. Well it came to a point where they were way grown out and sadly, it was that time. I never thought that I would’ve grown so attached to someone else’s hair but ladies, I did. I can’t reccomend them enough and a big part of that was also my experience at The Doves Studio, who was amazing at matching the exact shade of blonde that I wanted, helping me with my questions and just having overall amazing customer service. (Make sure to ask for Chris Rosario!)
But I digress, it was time for them to come out and yeah, I was definitely nervous about how my natural hair was gonna look after five months of having the extensions in. The result? Well it was certainly a shock to see how my natural hair didn’t look or feel the way it had with the extensions IN…but overall, my natural hair stayed extremely healthy with almost no breakage! I immediately needed my highlights touched up and The Doves Studio was nice enough to give me a slightly darker blonde shade for summer (in the above photo). I thought it might be fun to go slightly darker during the summer months and my colorist actually lightened my entire base color before putting the highlights in, making maintenance a bit easier. What do you guys think?
