And I’ll cry if I want to.
I don’t think I ever really understood that song until the eve of my 18th birthday. Before then the only tears I’d seen on a birthday were my sister’s…and she was only six-years-old so I think we can forgive her.
Let me set the scene. I was 17 and growing out my so-last-season short hair, which had been a success considering all the Posh Spice comparisons (it wasn’t a bad thing back then), but highly unsuccessful based on the numerous times I got mistaken for an adolescent boy.
So, as fellow grower-outers will understand, I was a tad overexcited that my hair had finally reached chin length. As my birthday approached, off I trotted to a well-known highstreet hairdresser for a quick trim before the big celebrations.
Warning: what happened next is all a bit of a daze.
I distinctly remember asking for a T-R-I-M. I don’t believe I could’ve made it any clearer but somewhere along the lines a massive miscommunication occurred. A razor (yes razor, as in, what they cut boys hair with) was brought out and copious amounts of hair fell to the ground. Needless to say, tears (plus a few sobs for good measure) followed.
Trust me, you would cry too if it happened to you.
Looking on the bright side, a valuable lesson was learned. I never, ever mess with my classic look (winged eye, poker straight hair and matte pink lip) for a big day. It’s just not worth the effort.
I have 364 other days to experiment, be wild and stay in my house if it all goes horribly wrong. That’s why on Wednesday this week (beautyheaven’s official 1st birthday) I kept it classic. But the rest of the week has passed by in a blur of orange lips, yellow nails, hair up, down, left, right, tucked under and a multitude of different bronzers.What’s your fail-safe look?
p.s. Big congrats to Elmo for the winning comment on yesterday’s Ed’s update.

I promised God that I would share my testimony on this website. I had all the signs of STD Virus but I was not too sure as to which one. I did a lot of online research and scared myself straight for a whole week before going to see the nurse. She took one look at my genital part and first said that it could just be the anatomy of my body, then she said it looked like genital warts and that I MAY have herpes. I was devastated. She gave me some medicine for the herpes and some cream for the warts. I was also tested for every single STD including herpes. I went home and cried searching the web for all sorts of cures for herpes and awaiting my results. I saw a post whereby Dr. Kham cured Herpes and other diseases, I copied his contacts out and added him on whats app via +2348159922297. The next day my test result was ready and I confirmed Herpes positive. I told Dr. Kham about my health problems and he assured me of a cure. He prepared his herbal medicine and sent it to me. I took it for 14 days (2 weeks). Before the completion of the 14 days in which I completed the dose, the Blisters and Warts that were on my body were cleared. I went back for a check-up and I was told I’m free from the virus. Dr. Kham cures all types of diseases and viruses with the help of his herbal medicine. You can reach Dr. Kham via his email address on (dr.khamcaregiver@gmail.com) or call him on +2348159922297 and whats app him on the same number, but You can Also Visit his website to know more about him at https://herbal-dr-kham.jimdosite.com/ or visit his Blog at https://drkhamcaregiver.blogspot.com/ for more info.
