All aboard the hair FAIL tug boat... Toot Toot

It's serious now. I can feel everything coming together, and with all that merging comes accidents, mess-ups, and incompletes. So, far I've been pretty on track as far as wedding stuff. Things have worked out, but this weekend might have been a FAIL. There were definitely some things that went right (we got our wedding bands!), but yesterday and this morning were a FAIL. Neither yesterday nor this morning could have been helped they were accidents, but still disappointing.

Yesterday was my hair trial. I went to Vain hair salon in Seattle. I had researched and looked at their work, and I was pretty confident that they could make my vintage hair vision come to life. I had plenty of inspiration pics, I had all my accessories, and the perfect amount of oil in my hair (your not suppose to wash your hair before you get it styled). I went to see William. He is one of their junior stylists aka great price for what you get. Just look at his work.
(There are no hair extensions between either of these girls!)

I showed him everything, and he was excited to do it and got the vision. He got to work, and at about 1.5 hrs later he said he didn't think he would be able to do my hair to the level that I wanted it. I felt SO bad because he was so disappointed in himself. I killed his confidence. I didn't want to be the cause of anyone doubting themselves. He referred me to one of their senior stylists. He was sure she would be able to pull it off. So, I have another hair appointment next weekend.

Most of all I'm just sad that I made him feel bad about himself and doubt his talent and abilities. Secondly, I guess that means the day of will be a little pricier then expected.

After I got back last night, I hung up my veil outside of the bag that I keep it in because it was wrinkled from the day trip. The cats don't go after our hanging clothes, and I thought it would be okay for a night. Unfortunately it fell on the floor. Acro got to it, and now it has holes. It was only $25 and I had not started putting the edging on. So, it wasn't that big of a deal, but it just adds one more thing to my list of to dos. The plan is to just go to the fabric store this time and use the mangled veil as my template.

Sorry about the sad face post today :(
