Hello everybody! As you could probably tell, I'm at the hair salon right now. I've already chopped off a lot of my hair and my stylist is mixing some colors so that I can dye my hair. So I decided that I'm going to get a balayage and that will brighten up my hair color for the summer. I'm very excited. I've got my cape on, my pillow. I'm very comfortable and just ready for a new change. So something like this, I still want it below my shoulders but where it's like a blunt cut, and then maybe longer face framing layers. But for length, maybe a little bit below the shoulders because I feel like my hair is kind of thin. I just read that maybe a blunt cut can kind of give it a little bit more volume. I'm nervous, but I guess it's time for a change. I've had the same haircut for quite a long time, though I'm ready for short hair girl summer. It was really dark, and I really didn't feel like myself. When it's too dark? Yeah, it was like so dark, like black, and I didn't feel like myself. I already feel lighter. I think I need this haircut to survive Korea's humidity. I always get a little bit nervous, but I always try to keep the perspective that it can always grow back. Hey, get out of here. Don't show the gray hairs. So I always blame my dad for my white hairs because his side of the family got white hair very early in life. So we're starting our own business, so We just kind of wanted to go somewhere to get away from everything because in Seoul we're quite busy. So I've got all the color in my hair now and I'm just letting it marinate. It looks like I can talk to aliens with all this tin foil in my hair. I'm so excited to see what it's going to look like at the end. I love when they put in the shampoo and conditioner. So relaxing. We've been working on my hair for 3 hours now. It's a lot of hard work trying to be beautiful, but I know it'll be worth it in the end. But I had to stand up and stretch. Do I look like an elf with my ear covers? I don't want dyed ears. Now she is trimming my hair. Blow drying it, and styling it. I feel like as I get older, I really try to take care of, like, my hair and my skin. Like, when I was younger, I never really took care of it much. Now it's really, really important to me. I said it takes her 5 minutes, it takes me an hour. I feel like a new woman. Feels so good. My hair is so soft now. I wish I could get this every day. It's not too short, I think. I know, but I didn't think I was going to cut any this morning. I feel like a brand new person after this hair appointment. We touched up my roots, we did a balayage to brighten up my hair, and I even got a spontaneous haircut, and I feel amazing, and I'm very happy with the result. My hair is even nice and styled now, so I think that I should go on a date today. Thank you all so much for watching.
