In preparation of my upcoming trip to Italy (just two weeks away holler!) I decided I should spend the weekend pampering myself to ensure I have that pretty American glow when I'm abroad. I was going to spoil myself with a new hair cut and color, mani and pedi, and perhaps some teeth whitening. I figured why not, I deserve it.
And then I remembered that in preparation of my upcoming trip to Italy I have no money. None. Thus enters the White Trash pampering session.
How to pamper yourself WT style:
Hair color: Check.
I'm quite sure the orange gloss it left behind is going to fade quite nicely into a very beautiful yellow any day now.
Teeth Whitening: Check.
Baking soda doesn't just freshen your fridge, it whitens your teeth, as well. So if you ever notice a line of white powder hanging on my bathroom sink, well now you know why.
Mani/Pedi: Check. Thanks Harlow!
Kidding! I actually used a real nail clipper this time I swear!
Spray tan: Done!
Jergins + me applying while watching Dance Moms=
American glow.
And then make sure to treat yourself to a fancy meal after all is said and done:
There's not a lot I haven't gotten used to while living Chris. We're pretty comfortable with each other, sometimes too comfortable. But the one thing I can't shake, the thing that I refuse to let him be around while I'm doing, is self coloring my hair. If you've ever done such an activity you know what I'm talking about.
My previous girl roommates have all seen it, and they agree it's not pretty. With just my roots all dark and slathered in hair dye, and my ends completely dry and blonde looking- I transform into a very scary Joe Dirt-esque looking woman.
Pretty sure I look something like this.
It was a quick fix. Most likely I'll end up paying to have it dyed professionally in a couple of weeks when it is full blown hay-yellow.
Happy Monday. We're just four days away from Friday... ugh.
