Dear chlorine, we are not friends.

A couple weeks ago I went to the pool with a blue hair elastic in my hair and it dyed my hair blue. No joke. It stayed like that for a while and didn't wash out until I used baking soda a couple times (so weird, I know. But it worked...thanks Heather!). By the way, the baking soda feels so weird in your hair and makes it seem like your ponytail is 5" in diameter. 

I went to the pool again today and it happened AGAIN! Except I wasn't wearing a blue elastic, so that clearly wasn't the problem last time either. I thought I was so clever and would never have that happen to me again. Wrong-o! 




I'm not sure what's going on with that pool, but there's either a serious chemical imbalance, or the blue sides of the pool are infiltrating my hair. Back you fiends! 

And it's time for a baking soda wash now. Perhaps it's bad for your hair to keep washing it in sodium bicarbonate?

In other news, here is Jenny doing sit ups. Pretty funny. Love her.

  1. Brooke! I'm so happy I found your blog by stalking you through facebook! So happy to see you doing well. I haven't seen you for so long and would really love to sometime. Any chance you're coming to Iowa any time soon? :)
