This is Beth. And it’s February.
1. The Do—Dark. Very dark. Inspired by famous females with shadowy tresses:
New this month: inspiration from closer to home—friend and colleague Andrea generously gave me permission to share her image:
(Pics of others I know who have very dark hair to come in future posts.)
I’ll be doing my take on a very dark do soft & wavy most of the month, if the hair cooperates.
2. Music (what was playing at the salon during the doing of the do)—Note: music plays all the time at Bang, I don’t get to pick do-appropriate songs. This time what I heard, noticed, remember: Marvin Gaye Let’s Get It On and Al Green Let’s Stay Together. Like.
3. Drink (what I sipped at the salon during the doing of the do)—Note: I do get to choose the do-appropriate drink—I bring the mixin’s and mix. This time, Black Russian, the tall/dirty variety.
Ice/Kahlua/vodka. A splash of cola makes it tall and/or dirty. Yum.
4. The Theory—Mysterious. Exotic. Stereotypes include: stormy, intense, angry.
5. Reactions—I’m pretty sure I can’t pull off exotic, we’ll see…
P.S. Title song: Led Zeppelin’s The Girl I Love She Got Long Black Wavy Hair (I do declare, yeah, she’s got long black wavy hair).
Changing the Locks 
Wow! Love it. I mean, I am biased to dark hair but really– this looks great on you! Such fun! I’m getting inspired.
YOU are a dark hair beauty! (This is fair warning that I’ll be asking to use pics of you.)
Fantastic!!
Very nice! And…you look very different! A little like Bono’s sister. Does he have a sister? Regardless, you look like her.
Ha. I’m just going to say thank you because that’s gotta be a good thing!
Definitely
You can TOTALLY pull of exotic! I’m flattered, and think we should go out as two stormy exotic brunettes and see what sort of fun we can find!
