I Have Mom Hair

Every morning, I take a hair clip and clip my hair off of my face. My hair is thick, coarse, and somewhat curly so it's the easiest way to do it. It's fast, simple, and it keeps it out of my way. The problem is, while I don't have a lot of time to spend on my hair (nor do I want to spend a lot of time on it honestly), I don't want "mom hair" either!

A few months ago, I tried getting it cut by a new salon and I walked out of there almost in tears. Here is one of the pictures after I'd spent a few hours trying to figure out how to style it. I really hated the cut. It was way too short for me.

It's since grown out about three inches (my hair grows fast thankfully) so it's time for me to get a (hopefully better) hair cut. I am trying to decide where to go to get my haircut. Because my hair is so difficult, the right cut makes a huge difference in whether I can actually style it or whether it goes up in the clip seven days a week.

My four kids are in desperate need of a good shaping so I am looking at a salon franchise for their hair too. I could make it a spa day with my girls and really get pampered.

I just don't want mom hair anymore. Yes, I am on the run constantly with three of my kids in soccer and two kids in cheerleading. I am definitely a soccer mom, but I don't want to look frazzled all the time. Once in awhile, I'd like to look put together (and maybe a few years younger and sexier...you know, BK (before kids).
