John Sahag Salon / Karmela
The last time I got my hair cut was a full year ago, almost to the day.
John Sahag Workshop Referral Program
I keep meaning to mention this to you: John Sahag Workshop (where I go for my color, from Doug, and my cuts, from Karmela), has a new rewards system that can go a long way towards offsetting the price of treatments with senior stylists.
Here's how it works: If you refer a friend to JSW, they get $50 off their first visit, and you get $50 off your next visit (after their first visit). First-time visitors get to take home a free John Sahag Workshop product, and then get $50 off when they refer someone else, and so on. And there's no limit, so if you refer, say, four new clients, you get $50 off at your next four appointments.

John Sahag Workshop Keratin Treatment
I obviously can't get Keratin at the moment (that's a shot from a rainy and ordinarily majorly frizz-inducing day a couple of months after my first treatment, hence the remarkably smooth hair and alcoholic beverage)...but that doesn't mean that you can't!
John Sahag Blonding / Camera In Front of My Face
I generally don't enjoy going up to random people and asking them to take my picture. Sure, I'll ask Kendrick, or a close friend, but otherwise I generally find this an odd, embarrassing (if sometimes necessary) thing to do. But I did want to share a couple of the cool tips I learned at the John Sahag Workshop yesterday with you...so: this photo series also stars my trusty Canon.
Bi-Annual Keratin Treatment / John Sahag Salon
I've said it before, I'll say it again: there is no better beauty splurge out there for those of us with problematic locks.
John Sahag / Keratin
I’ve been going to the John Sahag Workshop for cuts (from Karmela) and color (from Frank) since I was about 17 years old.
Book Tour Day 1: Photo Diary
I think I lived six or seven lifetimes yesterday. It literally did not stop from the moment I opened my eyes at six until the moment my head hit my pillow at midnight.
Oh, excerpt for once. I have this little quirk: interacting with other human beings in an environment where the focus is on me generates this very specific kind of stress that has the unfortunate byproduct of making me fall asleep. You know those fainting goat videos? Like that.
So yeah, I fell asleep flat on my stomach on my parents' bed an hour before I was due to walk onto a stage and talk about pregnancy for an hour and a half. I did end up making it on time, but my micro-nap had the effect of making me a little loopy, so I went ahead and told an audience of strangers about that time when I was giving birth to my second child and was so terrified of having a repeat of my terrible, horrible, accidentally natural first birth experience that I hit the little GIVE ME DRUGS button as often as I possibly could, which meant that by the time my daughter came into the world I was a very special kind of high that made me think it might be a good idea to pull a Kourtney Kardashian and pull my daughter out...myself. The teeny tiny iota of my brain that was still functioning properly at that moment very fortunately alerted me to the fact that this would be an extremely bad idea, so I went ahead and let the doctor handle the baby-extrication process, but oh man, it was close.
A Few Things I Learned This Week
Even in the rain, Christmas in NYC is lovely (image via)
I just realized that I've been in New York City for a week now, and have barely even mentioned it (although I've been Instagramming and Snapchatting the bejeesus out of this trip, per usual). I flew in mostly because my aunt Trudy (who lives in a part of Canada that's extremely difficult and expensive to get to from San Jose) has never met Goldie, and so I used miles to fly to the city during a time when she was planning to be there visiting my mom.
One of the more exciting things that happened this week was that Erin and I met up with our editors at Penguin Random House to discuss the details of our book launch in the spring (The Big Fat Activity Book for Pregnant People officially comes out on April 25, although it's available for preorder now). We'll be doing events on both coasts, so I'll keep you guys posted in case you'd like to swing by for pickles and ice cream and hugs and such. And! And and and! We also found out that the book is being picked up for publication in the U.K., France, and Poland - which means that there's a decent chance that Erin and I will end up hanging out in Britain at some point early next year. Tea and crumpets! Adorable London boutiques! HOTEL BEDS.
