I have no clue what I'm wearing to the prom. I don't think it's going to be a dress; I haven't worn a skirt since 1998, when I left the corporate world.
I did just go for a color and cut. I have been going to the same salon forever, or rather I've followed my good friend the stylist from salon to salon forever. The salon now has a person who does facials and manicures and the like, and my friend said, "While your color's on, why don't you get Isabelle to do your eyebrows?" She threaded my eyebrows and dyed my eyebrows and eyelashes. OMG, I look like 400% better. Now I'm never doing my own eyebrows again. Also, my hair is now even redder.
Jilli, will you do makeup? All nice and smokey eyes??

I'll help with makeup, but I have to warn everyone that I am not good at doing smokey eyes. Every time I try it on myself, I end up looking like a happy panda.

This sounds painful, is it? I'm thinking I may need to get myself all appointmented up at my daughter's salon so I can come all pampered to the Prom. I will not get a pedicure, though, so I can hang with the folks going to Deb's favorite place for that.
It wasn't painful at all, Sail, because it's incrediably quick. It feels more like something is vibrating your eyebrows, not pulling them out.
Threading was a lot less painful than plucking and waxing, IMO.
I'm not even sure my daughter's salon offers threading, I figure she would have mentioned it if they did. I'll have to ask her. Shows you how much I care about these kinds of things. As much as I like to dress up, I'm really not much of a girlie girl, sigh.
You can tell how much a girly-girl I am by the fact that I am astonished by the effects of paying someone else to do grooming things. I have had my eyelashes dyed before, because they are stubby and pale things, but the rest is all new to me.
I can do the make-up. As long as I get to shop/play dress-up with Jilli.
I will play paper doll/dress-up with anyone who holds still long enough at the f2f.
This would be just about the most fun ever.

Okay. NOW it's the most fun ever!! I can't wait to meet all of y'all in May!!!
I have been at a conference for work (our conference, 1200+ attendees) and I'm totally exhausted. And, I have class tonight. Woo, no Hoo. I really just want to go home and sleep the sleep of the righteous.
