We Want to Know Wednesday 2-22-12

Here it is Wednesday, and I had the most ah-MA-zing girls' weekend!!! No pictures, but I'll give the details tomorrow. The only thing that would have made it better would have been to be able to be treated to some spa/mani/pedi time. And then that's what our questions are about this week. Coinky dinky? I think not ;)


I'm linking up with Mamarazzi, Crazymama, and Queso for this week's questions, asked by Crazymama. Here goes!


1. What is your go to color if you paint your nails? Do your toes and fingernails match?


I don't necessarily have a go to color. And it's been quite a while since I've painted my fingernails. They get ruined almost immediately doing the dishes, so I don't bother. BUT, I love funky colors on my toenails. I have purple on them right now, but I also like to paint them teal. And then I have red and hot pink. It took a while to get used to the teal, though. I would look down at them and think to myself that maybe I need some oxygen or something. When I DO paint both my fingernails and toenails, they don't match. It's the best way to decide between two colors...you don't :)


2. Have you ever gone for a mani/pedi? How often do you go?


I discovered pedicures two years ago. Oh heaven! Love them! I've only had three manicures ever and they were really nice, too. I consider pedi's a treat and go when I've got the extra moolah to spend. I definitely see myself getting a pedi this weekend...just sayin' ;)


3. Do you color your hair? Do you have a salon do it or do you do it yourself?


Oh, yes, my hair is colored, and I get it done at a salon. You see, it was dictated to me by my son that I could never, NEVER buy a box of color again after my last fiasco. I was trying to color it back to my natural color which is a very dark brown, with annoying strands of gray, which we won't speak of anymore ;) Anyhoo, I bought the color, put it on and followed the instructions TO THE LETTER. And when I got done, my hair was black. Geisha black, people. When Kyle got home, he just stopped in his tracks and said, "Cool!" I'm like, you're kidding, right? "Nope, all you need is to paint your fingernails black and you'll be the coolest mom ever!" I cried. And cried. And no salon, not one, would touch it because it would turn the most hideous shade of orange. So I had to grow it out and it took forevah, which resulted in my saying daily that I hated my hair. To this day, if I even think of going down the aisle with the haircolor on it, my son won't let me.


4. Facials...have you ever had one?

I've had a facial at a Mary Kay party, but I've never had one at a spa. But I really want to!


5. Would you or have you ever done botox?


Nope. I just don't see being able to do that to myself.


6. Beauty knows no pain, do you believe in waxing, electrolsis, eyelash extensions, anti-aging creams, microderm abrasion, peels, botox?


I have had my eyebrows waxed once, but as for the other stuff, I would say probably not.
