Stress Management


(My new pixie - what do you guys think?)

I was at my cousin's salon this weekend getting my hair done when I was told that I was losing a lot more hair than was normal. No new medications, no weird changes with my hair routine... it turns out that stress is the cause. What a slap in the face. I've been trying to hold myself together and put a smile on my face and my body has to go ahead and out me. I haven't been sleeping, I've been having anxiety attacks at night, and now my hair is proving it. I'm using a new tension aromatherapy oil and trying to breathe more. For now, those are the only changes I can make. To hide some of the damage, I went for a pixie. I've wanted to go short again for months anyway, but was thinking of waiting until I went darker so it's not a huge issue for me. In fact, I love it. 

Breathe deep...
