hair raising

Yesterday I thought I'd have some fun and do my hair with the curling iron. This is big news because for the past 4 1/2 years I didn't even own a curling iron. It was fun, and I was pretty pleased with my first attempt. :)

Rob came home a while later and we got dinner on the table. I was surprised he didn't say anything about my new curly look, so I asked, "How does my hair look?" Rob looked at me for a few moments. Then he asked, "Did you sleep on it funny?" Sigh.

I need help y'all. My last haircut did not go well and I have no skillz. Additionally, I used to have really, really straight hair. Since I started having the kiddos though, my hair has gotten more waves, and curly bits, and odd things going on with each pregnancy. All of these things are happening to the hair 'underneath.' The hair on top? Still straight. My first instinct last night was to shave it all off. Rob talked me down from the ledge though and I am trying to be more rational in how I proceed. I'm open to any and all suggestions here. Help me. Please.
