It’s good to be loved.

So, after having my bad hair experience and many tears, today was much better.

I shampooed my hair and some of the red faded and it now looks more Auburn and less radical red. I didn’t put any hair products in my hair and just blow dryed it by running my hands through it so that it layed down a bit more. It doesn’t look as bad today.

My mom let me pick out a hat from her Etsy store. I chose this one.

Hunter Green 100% Virgin Wool Cap. Has a gently curving brim — an open roll — and the brim is flaired in the back. Lots of texture… which I tend to love.

The flower is a magenta camelia type with 5 petals in two rows and rayon, nylon pink center. There are two woodsy green leaves and one bud with a small leaf on the stem.

I received compliments when I was wearing the hat this evening. Not just from women, but one of my male friends said he really liked the hat and that it looked good on me. He’s funny. He took off his hat and wore mine for a little while (just joking around) but he said he did really like it.

Of course I was encouraged that my hair didn’t look as bad as I thought it did and that it will grow back.  One friend even said that she didn’t notice my hair, she noticed my smile.

Today was a better day thanks to my mom and my friends. It IS nice to be loved.
