DON'T CARE HOW I WANT IT NOW

 ( Images via: breathenakedart )

I've been to almost every salon on the upper east side and no one will take my blond.  Some have even suggested doing blond highlights instead.  I absolutely cringe at the thought.

I don't care what it takes!  I'm going blond MA!


...and the search continues....

Exactly.
