So, the morning of the mall trip I get a text that goes like this:
KRISTIN: Can I get a feather?
MOM: In your hair?
KRISTIN No, ask Megan (my oldest daughter)
Jennifer Love Hewitt Hillary Duff
So, I emphasize to said daughter that I do not want her to get bright colors and that if she really wants to, I will pay $20 of it as part of her birthday present. Kristin agrees. Meanwhile, I am driving around town with my other kids and quite busy and preoccupied. All the while I start second guessing myself and realized that I was letting my daughter do this without me even being there!? (Never would happen with my "first born".) Have I lost my mind? (Possibly.) However, I did trust the other mom who was with them. I also reasoned that it is "summer vacation" and summers are for fun, she got all As on her report card, etc...
Now, can we backup to mention what a feather in your hair meant when I was Kristin's age? (Say in the 70s for example?) It was a "feathery" looking cut like the one shown below. I had a similar cut in 8th grade. Cute, huh? LOL...

I do think she caught me at a weak moment with all this last minute stuff, but I am happy with how it turned out and impressed that I even knew about this trend before she asked. It is always cute to see my girls feeling proud and confident of how they look, so for now, it's all good!!

It's cute and fun...just like her!!
*Her hair is still wet in these pics, but I had to take them while I could!
