Icon7 Before and After---Girls do I have a dare for you...

I think this would be kind of fun (don't ask me why).

But I was thinking we could each post a preshower-postshower picture of ourselves. You know bedhead verses just styled hair.

Are you up for the dare?

Now I must warn you I have major bed head most mornings and my eyebrows are in desperate need of a waxing....but I'll go first give me about and hour and I'll post some pictures.

I cheated just a little, I had to take a pic of my skin this morning to send to my esthetician friend so the before is me "undone" which is pretty much how I look straight out of bed anyways:


And here is me "after" doing my hair and make-up for the day. Don't ya just love the new haircolor? Just had it done yesterday!

I agree Chrissy - greats pics!

Shower - whats that? - I seem to have a vague memory of such things but absolutely no memory of what is like to get all doll up! LOL!

I haven't worn make-up since my teen age years (I'm too tomboy in my thinking - why do I have to spend my money and time and guys don't?) - out of the shower I typically put my hair in braids to avoid baby goop! I don't think baby drool and formula is the new suave hair treatment that all the celebrities are using! I'll enjoy looking at your pics - though!

Chrissy- You look GREAT and I love the hair color!

Ok, girls I almost chickened out because I didn't see much of an improvement once I showered.
I put on lipstick but all the other makeup is at the other house and well I need a haircut... but here goes nothing.

This is me as of 10AM this morning and I actually woke up at 6AM- typically I shower at like 4 in the afternoon right before L gets home, so can you imagine walking around like this all day long...SPOOOKKY!!!



Ok and here I am after my shower and after I did a little bit of housework. I haven't cleaned in like 3 weeks so the house was in desperate need of a cleaning. Sorry i chopped my chin off, I forgot my camera has a timer and I don't need to hold it in my hands anymore.



Who is next? Nicole, Ruby, Jenn, Mely, Marian, Tiffani, Amber... :

Thanks ladies, K, I think you look great too! Jenn, I am required by law to wear make-up (for work I mean) just in case I run into clients. Otherwise I tend to spend my day off (today) with little girl-type pigtails on top of my head and in sweats! This gave me a great excuse to get "pretty" today. DH will thank you all I'm sure!

Come on now, it's only fair.....

You all are brave. But, then again you are cute so you can do this. I on the other hand, I look about 60 in the morning after I haven't slept for more than two hours straight at at time. For the last 4.5 years. Maybe I'll remember to get a pic tomorrow morning...

I'm in though you might not see much of a difference except for the hair since I wear no makeup. I'll post if I can on the weekend if not for sure on Monday!

Crud, I forgot to take a picture this morning. But, then again, I haven't done a thing with my hair today, except run my fingers through it, so maybe I can take it now and you can see my before I went to volunteer work and AFTER I went to volunteer work. It will be the same picture. (no bueno)

Oh wait... tomorrow I am going to go get a touch-up. I'll do a before and after of that!
