So I’m having my hair trial this week and I’m a little nervous.  I’m going for something that I think is quite pretty, but it’s a little more on the casual side.  I’m keeping my hair mostly down, with just a little of it up off my face so I don’t play with it all night.

I’m nervous for a few reasons.  It still seems so far until my wedding, and while I purposefully booked the appointment early because I had never used the salon before, I’m worried I will change my mind or won’t like the stylist, or will, in a moment of weakness, cut my hair (I’m growing it out for this style to work, and it’s driving me a little batty lately).

I’m going in prepared.  I’m going to bring a picture of my dress, inspiration pictures of my hair and make up ideas so the stylist can get a sense of my outfit, style, and “look.”  But for some reason I’m nervous.  I feel like I am auditioning my ideas, not the other way around.

Because this is the first beauty appointment, I feel like it’s the first time something can go wrong.  It’s the first time a stylist can say, “Oh….” in just that way that makes you feel *this big* and suddenly your whole look comes crumbling down into a pile and you get bullied into a hairstyle you hate and isn’t you and makes you look horrible.

Ok.  I know I’m overreacting.  It’s a freaking hair trial for goodness sake.  It doesn’t even cost any money.  But it’s the first time I’m having a professional consider *me* for the wedding, instead of the other way around.  And I’m just a little sensitive right now… I still haven’t made it to my first dress fitting…

Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.
