Today I admitted to a female coworker that the reason I recently got my hair dyed and highlighted was because I wanted my hair to look like hers. She really does have beautiful hair.
My hair is not as full as hers, nor is it cut fem like hers, but her base color and highlights are now similar to mine. (my hair is longer though, hee hee) I am 44 years old and have never dyed my hair until now.
Revealing something like this probably seems like a minor thing to many of you but to me it was thrilling. Liberating, even. To my delight, she seemed quite flattered when she lowered her eyes and responded to my admission, "Awhhhhh".
Then for the next 5 or 10 minutes, I listened to myself talking with her about highlighting/lowlighting techniques, her hair and my hair. It was surreal. Several candid minutes of girl talk with a GG and it was just wonderful to let it out. I have never had "girl talk" like that before with someone other than my GG GF, who is the only one who knows my little secret. For a moment or two I was just one of the girls, and it was heavenly. I want more!
