I decided to deal with "the crisis" after my son was born, my hair had darkened to an ugly brown, my blond highlights were gone and I finally gave in to my hairdresser to color my hair. I had let my hair grow long, so she cut it (didn't want to dye my full head of hair - which is no longer the case), then colored it. When my husband arrived home, he noticed that I had gotten my hair cut, but not that I had become a blonde, Men, go figure.
