Say yes, 2012 (hot yoga, pink hair, rock climbing)
So, it’s almost February, and I’ve finally decided on my New Year’s resolution. And I want you to do it with me. More about that at the end, but be ready, my friends. I had a little bit of an idea about what I wanted it to be in my head, and I’ve been kind…

Updating style (new hair!)
Going to see my favorite hairstylist Tommy soon, and so I was inspired this morning to look at some new hairstyles. Of course I want your opinion! This is my hair now: Here are the styles that caught my eye: They’re not dramatically different – I’m not in the “whole new look” mode, more…

Smooth, bare and apparently laser hair removal *can* be affordable
Colleen told me once that every time she hears anything about a new hair removal treatment, she thinks of me. Because, she says, inevitably I will try it and, if I can rope her into it, make her try it too. And she’s totally not wrong. When it comes to hair removal, I’ve pretty much tried…

Why I recommend my hairdresser to everyone I know
Amy asked me recently if it took me hours to do my hair. To which I replied excitedly, “no, it only takes 10 minutes!” I told her I would explain how I did it, so here goes. First of all, find a hairdresser you trust. One that knows your personality, your hair needs, etc. etc. I’ve…

I did it! I rode my bike! And I ran 18 miles – all in one weekend!
Recently I picked up a new bike from REI. And then I tried to ride it. And that was very, very difficult, as you can read about here. Seeing as how I have a little race to run in 33 days, I figured safe is better than sorry. So I had Jeff take off my…

‘Missa, why is your hair red?’
I was born with auburn hair. In fact, I was a redhead through all of my younger years – and I hated it. I hated being called “Carrot Top” or “Copper Top” or “Red” or whatever else came to mind. Then I started growing up and someone told me guys actually like redheads. Then my…

modern. original. design.
Had the opportunity to update the ad for Melissa Oyler Designs for the September edition of Natural Awakenings Magazine (which I also do layout/design for). Check it out – what do you think?

Why do I ask what you think if it doesn’t matter?
Heather chopped off several inches of her hair recently and it looks phenomenal. Of course, a new haircut is always strangest for the person who owns the hair – I know, as I’ve had many different hairstyles over the years … Which makes me think about my haircut theory. A decision so major as to whether…

Life, going down the right tube
This is by no means meant to be a synopsis of my year – in fact, I’m leaving out some of the biggest stuff on purpose. Just a few random tidbits about time and how we choose to pass it. Thoughts on 2008: – In February I decided to chop my hair off and go…

64 minutes, funky hair clips and new socks: Two sisters go on a morning run
Two weeks after hiking a mountain with my brother Kevin, I decided to run the Cooper River Bridge Run 10K with my sister Jenny. My siblings keep me in shape, that is for sure! Jenny has run a million races and I have run one 5K, so this is a new experience for me. What did I…
