One good thing about the BlogHer conference is that it prompted me to get off my ass and actually remember the whole Hawtalucion.
So I went on a journey of hair proportions. I asked your advice and the majority said EXTREME MAKEOVER DAWN’S BLOGHER HAIR EDITION.
I did NOT want the Rachel.
The entire time in the chair, as I watched hair fall, I had two thoughts that jump to and fro.
1. Whoorl is gonna kick. my. ass. for not listening to her.
2. OMG I can’t wait to text Victoria when I get the fuck out of here.
I got home and was less than pleased to see the hair already beginning the mid summer mid west hair fro.
After a while I was able to tame it into some nice mommy hair.
But after a scant 30 minutes outside. Dun dun DUN!
The mother fucking Rachel flip. Again.
So I let it go curly. And was much pleased. As was Miss Sarah, who is totally beautiful in person (and in her pictures, but she passes muster up close too.)
She says she thinks it still need to be redder, but the blonde is fun for summer. I completely agree with her and can’t WAIT to go get some more red in mah hairs.
THEN, this wonderful unknown to me photog named Josh Hallet took this insanely hot picture of me.
Damn.

My hair is probably my dominant physical feature. It’s long, thick, wavy, and very blonde, standing out even more than it would on a different person given my small frame.
I’m a skinny boy with very long hair.
Nearly two years ago now, I went from having it mid-back length to shaved.
Since then it’s reached my shoulders, but I’ll never forget the shock with which people responded to my move back in 2006.

Oh and now I feel stupid because the commenter before me said the same thing. But because both of us said it, it must be true!

I think everyone looks hotter in the screen glare of Mac. It brings out highlights, cheekbones, and makes you look smarter. Seriously.
That’s why I want a Mac.

Well, I will be an echo in the chamber and say “hawt!” Also love the curls (but then, I am partial to curls since mine does the same frizzy/curly thing as yours)

You and your hair are totally hot in person. (Although, maybe not quite as hot as Christine getting pissed off at her credit card company. Neither one of us could compete with THAT. Hee!)
Love your guts you sexy woman, you.

Good god girl – you are HAWT! I wonder if I put your picture on my site I could convince people that I had the most awesome-est makeover in the history of the world?

I was nowhere in those professional photos. Not even the back of my head made it. I’m not sure what that means, but I think I need a makeover.

Wow, just wow, and not just the totally hot photo of you at the end. You gets around, don’t ya?
Glad you had such a bitchin’ time at Blogher 08!
stephanie
Ok, so I’m trying to catch up on some blog reading, and I had to come by and see if you had cut your hair yet. And yay! You did! Looks fabuloso! Yeah, curly hair does what it wants to do – I think you should just go with it. Looks great, so why fight it?!
I cut mine last week too. And I’m very happy about the change. But it’s not like I have photographers following me around or anything like SOME people… 😉
