I couldn't take it anymore. I trimmed my own bangs. They were too much in my eyes. I only took enough off to get them out of my eyes, and yet the sink seemed to have oodles of cut hair in it. My hair is curly enough, including my bangs, that exactness is likely not a huge issues.Nevertheless, I flat ironed them before I started. I wonder if/when there may come a time when I color my hair myself. I've had that done professionally for years now. I did color it a few times as a young woman, but that was different. I've been covering salt and pepper roots for some years now.

I'm going to ask a potentially stupid question now. If I select a hair color at the store that is slightly lighter than my current color, what will happen? Will it slightly lighten my whole mop of hair? Or just color the roots, but color them in a lighter color than the rest of my hair? My hair has slightly lightened lately because I've been out in the sun a bit. I think I'd call it between medium golden brown and medium copper brown. I'd like to go light golden brown. Occasionally, I can get to light golden brown if I continue to go out in the sun a lot. The problem is just the graying roots.
