Just Got my hair colored. I will hear how nice my hair looks but I know it's only hairdresser hair. One wash and it's back to Mamie hair.

how they always proclaim how easy it is to do yourself
Enjoy it while you can. 
prefers Kghia hair to hairdresser hair, although these days they are pretty equivalent (I'm getting bossier at the salon)
I can never get my hair as smooth as it gets at the salon with all that blowing on the round brush. I get all twisted around on my own.
Did you do the Henna?
I didn't. I've highlighted my hair for decades, so I fear doing it unsupervised. I'm girding my loins to shell out $250 for the salon.
Ow - that would seriously make me reconsider
I have gone to the same salon for more than 10 years so I get the regular's rate...$85 for color, cut and styling.
I feel lucky...although sometimes I think about going to someone different the price keeps me in line!
