Wanting a total makeover

Maybe it's because I am pretty much constantly in my house, wearing pajamas, covered in milk, minimally showered, still rocking undyed hair with stray greys because I wouldn't dye it during pregnancy, with hormone change acne and hormone change body odor, and with an extra flabby belly but....

I want a freaking total makeover.Like a drastic hair cut and color and a makeup consult. And a new wardrobe. I just went to unpack some of my pre-mat clothes and they all seem ugly.

Does anyone else feel this way? Am I insane? Because I am this close to dying my hair red.

Re: Wanting a total makeover

  • I started shopping today. Heaven help me on the jeans and pants portion of the shopping bc I have no idea what my bottom half will fit into but shoes and tops are about to be ordered! I figure I labored for 54 hours, pushed for 3.5 so I want some pretty clothes to make me feel good when I go back out into the world then by gosh I shall have them! :)

  • Yep!!! The only time I actually get dressed is when we have a doctor's appointment to go to or some other planned reason to leave the house. I smell sour milk/spit up all the time and even though I can now fit in most of my pre-pregnancy jeans, the flabby muffin top isn't all that fun =(

    I was on bed rest for 2.5 weeks before DD came so I needed a hair cut really bad. DH took DD entirely for an 1.5 so that I could dye my hair. I am slowly getting there. But I totally agree about going shopping. I keep getting emails for new shows and spring collections at stores.

    And I think you should go for the red hair =) Have to preface that the hair dye I use is black cherry . . . I LOVE hair colors with red tones.

  • I chopped off my hair today, does that answer your question? :) I hate all my pre pregnancy clothes... I feel they are ugly too. Also, I live in FL and most of what I have is some sort of tank top. I has bad back acne during pregnancy and even though the bumps are gone there are still red marks where they were and I really dont like showing my shoulders now... So yea, I want a new wardrobe now too.

  • A week ago, I went and got my nails done and today I chopped off my hair :) I love it and I am feeling more like pre-mama me.  Clothing has not been a big deal to me as I haven't tried to really fit any pre-preg clothes.  I have lost my baby weight but I guess I'm carrying it differently because they aren't fitting well.  I say go for it, but I love drastic :)

  • Girl, I am right there w/ you. I just want a cut and color, and to wear a nice outfit (I live in sweats and yoga pants).
