FReAkY FRiDaY

Everyone, it's Friday the 13th and man, oh man, do I have a FReAkY experience to share with ya.

Ladies, you know how before you leave home, how you go in the bathroom to make sure you look okay to be seen in public? Like me, you probably do some quick routine things like apply some deodorant, brush (and maybe floss) your teeth, and of course, make sure your hair looks decent. Well, that's what I was doing, those quick and supposedly easy things. I was having issues with my hair and thought that my tiny round brush would do the trick.




***WrOnG!!!!***
This tiny round brush is now my WoRSt EnEmy and let me show you why:


Umm...Yeah, my tiny round brush ToTaLLy got stuck in my hair! DON'T LAUGH AT ME!!! I know ya are, but DON'T! It's NOT nice! I was just trying to curl my messy hair a little! Guess I tried a little too hard.

Guess how long it took me to get the brush out of my hair?!?!

I tried for 30 minutes straight!!!

Well, I lied. It wasn't 30 minutes straight. I had quite the struggle untangling my hair and I just felt the need to snap a photo here and there to document this FReAkY hair situation. This kind of thing doesn't happen to me everyday and I knew that I'd laugh about it later.

After the 30ish minutes of struggling, I didn't know what to do. I had a vision of how my hair could look in the future:

Ewww! Gross! I NeVer wanna look like HER!

So, I took and deep breath. I realized that I'd need a second pair of hands to solve this FReAkY hair situation. There's no way I'd ask for Tyler or Brian's help. I finally mustered up enough courage to leave the bathroom and face "my public." Sam couldn't believe his eyes. Once he got done laughing at me, he began to help me.

Sam's forceful tug tug tugging of the hair on my head was not well received by my scalp. Did I cry? You betcha! Did I scream? Uh huh! Was the pain harder to handle than labor pains? yes, Yes, YES! I screamed so loud that I bet my neighbors all thought I was a CrAZy woman!

Anyway, one and a half hours later, Sam FiNaLLy got my last piece of hair out of that blasted brush! There were tears of joy and tears of pain. Who knew that a stupid tiny round brush could inflict so much pain?!

POOR, PitifuL ME!

Oh, and FYI, that's not the end of the story. It took another hour to get my hair untangled. Another painful experience.

***Summary: Do not EVER, under any circumstances, use a tiny round brush. YOU WILL GET HURT! People... Please learn from my mistakes. It's far better to have messy hair than to have your scalp and hair traumatized for life! ***

Uh oh, I'm one of those not nice people you were talking about! I was totally laughing at your painful expense!! And I love all the documentation. I have yet to own a tiny round brush, but thanks to you I think I just might scratch that off my list of things to try. :)

What an ordeal! I love your pictures! :) Glad it's out...I've never been able to round brush- it takes some serious skill! I leave that up to the hairdressers once a year :)

Steph said...

You poor thing! That did look painful. I guess you've learned your lesson about tiny round brushes though. :)

Maren said...

I'm sorry you were in pain. Awesome pics and awesome post!

Oh my goodness, what a nightmare. Naughty round brush. So glad you chronicled it for us all. What talent.

sorry, but I have to....hahahaha...that's so funny seeing same try and get it out! I did that once, when I was like ten, but it didn't take that long to get out! (younger kids have thinner hair) But I still stay around from round brushes. I remember once though, over a break from school, I decided since I wasn't going to school i didn't need to brush my hair. Yep, Rosanne spent like half an hour brushing out all the nights late into the night before I had to go back to school.

okay I know you said not to laugh,but it's hard not to. I can't believe it took that long to get it out. OUCH!! I will take your advice and never use a little round brush. I'm glad you didn't have to cut your hair.You don't want a bald spot, that wouldn't be good.
