The story of my Snazzy Hair-Do and Jacket...

So had a few people asking me about my hair and my jacket I did not expand on the pictures that I posted, I guess now is the time. The hair-do was a free deal. There was a sign outside one of the many hair salons in Taradale reading "Looking for Hair Model." The girls in the salon told me they were needing someone that would not mind getting their haircut and styled for a final exam. The day of the exam I showed up at a salon in downtown Napier and met the girl that would be cutting and doing a perm on my hair. This was the first perm in my life. There were approximately six other girls that were there taking the test and six other girls getting their hair re-shaped. The feeling in the salon was tense, but my stylist was great and she passed the test with flying colors. It is pretty weird having curly hair but this style is pretty fun and easy to manage so it will be my New Zealand look.

The jacket was an early birthday present to myself from Anne S. a cool designer that is from New Zealand and hires New Zealanders to make her clothing designs. It reminded me of my mom as well. Maybe we will make a pattern off this one and make one for her. :)
