Hair

I’m a blonde ya, ya, ya! I’m a blonde!  Ok, so the hair took the color nicely and it looks rather nice.  Got in the shower to rinse the color out and while doing so big thick clumps of hair were coming right out.  Causes a bit of a cry out but I took a few deep breathes, shampoo’d, conditionered and soon or later the hair stopped coming out.  I have no bald spots or thin patches, so what it seems is that while a lot of damage was done to my hair for three chemical treatments in 2 days, it wasn’t falling out, just breaking off.  I’ve not brushed it, in fear of more breakage, but I was told by my friend who does hair for a living that I should get a repair treatment, which I did, its Matrix Biolage fortifying treatment you spray on and leave in.  I also got some moisterizing shampoo and conditioner which she told me to wait aboug 3-4 days before washing my hair again so it can get its own natural oils back as the bleaching stripped it of it.  No big deal will do.  My only problem is that the deep conditioner you put on after you color, and after the two bleach jobs is a panthenol treatment, which is a waxy based conditioner, so instead of feeling silky soft it feels waxy, sticky.  ICK.  The spray in conditioner isn’t helping with that feeling either, so for about a week I have to have this waxy feeling hair. UGH.

News on the job front, I have an interview with the department I applied for at work, the Account Representative, which hopefully is a good sign of getting hired into the department.  Kind of strange how different the job application from the inside is vs the outside.  I kinda feel that going from the inside might actually be freaking harder.  But we’ll see.  I really really really want this job in this department, the seasons are nine months long and that would mean I get health insurance.  Also once I’m in the job a year (which only takes a season and a third, unlike my current position which takes 4 seasons) I can apply for a full time perm job.  AWESOME.  It also means I can go up in steps faster than I do now, you need a year of work to get a step increase and it took me 4 seasons to go from a 4 to a 5 on the GS system, and if I get this position it will only take me 1.3 seasons to go from a 5 to a 6.

Ohhh I really do hope I get that job.  Ok, so the interview process is on the 9th of this month. 

*HUGS* TOTAL!
