Tress Tuesday: Grown Up Pigtails by Assembly Salon

When I was primping for “Dawn’s Pajama Party” – hosted for me here at The Cupcake Palace last Friday by Good Carma Girls – I knew I only had one question to ask myself, “For a pj party, which hair do you pair?” I mean, my PJ Salvage donut pjs were basically begging for pigtails but I was hesitant.

Such cute choices from PJ Salvage made it difficult to decide. "Eenie-meanie-miney-mo. Which @pjsalvage way should I go? I mean, donuts are delicious and birds are adorably bitty. But which pair should I choose for a pajama party so pretty?" Well, I finally decided on the darling donuts!

I had lunch with a girlfriend that day and I told her my idea. To say she was opposed to the pigtails would be an understatement. “Do we really have to go all little girl? I mean, it’s already a pj party for goodness sake!” Good point.

So how could I as a single, Thirtysomething chick look pj-pajama-party cute while maintaining a little bit of, well, sexiness and self-respect?

As so often is the case, enter Assembly Salon to the rescue. I headed over there and told the talented  – and delightful – Dee my vision. She said wryly, “I know just what you need.”

Who says pigtails have to be childish? They can have some VERY grownup implications...

 

I ended up walking out with sexy bedhead, Brigitte Bardot pigtails tied with pink satin ribbon that would make any schoolgirl blush.

It was super fun to not only channel the schoolgirl in me but to bring in a bit of coqeuttishness, as well.

Add in some grownup pigtails and the coquette comes out to play... (note the mug is a gift from, ahem, Doc Johnson - coquette, indeed)
