You might be wondering, “So what the heck is this Monday Poll thing anyway?”
Well, it isn’t much of a poll. It’s more just a constantly evolving (devolving?), somewhat random list of questions I’ve been putting out to readers every Monday morning for the past seven years. I’ve always enjoyed reading your answers in the comments, and I hope you enjoy reading mine.
- Ponytails — high or low?
Low ponies (LOL! Sounds like a bummed-out horse) because they don’t give me headaches as much as high ponies, although I do like the look of a high pony. I think they’re very elegant and chic.So both, I guess. High and low ponies. 🙂
- List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
Hmm… Surprisingly, I don’t actually have as much leopard print as I’d like. I have a…- Pair of high heels, which are a tad too high for me, so I don’t really wear them… I just like to look at them.
- A scarf from Target that my mom got me for Christmas
- A pink vinyl leopard-print makeup bag
- A baggy leopard-print sweater from Target…with the face of an actual leopard on it
Wow, that’s it… Not as much as I thought. I think this is something I must rectify ASAP.
- Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
Not really. When I watch a concert, I like to be sitting on the couch with the Tivo remote so that I can pause for bathroom and snack breaks and don’t have to wait for two hours standing up for the headliner to start.LOL! I’m so grumpy.
- Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
I’ve definitely had hair mishaps, like the time I’d just gotten my hair blown out stick straight in the city, and it started raining like crazy. Of course, I didn’t have an umbrella… - Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
D., all of the above.The hair dryer and curling iron most often.
Your turn. 🙂 Just copy and paste the following questions into a comment with your answers. I look forward to reading ’em!
1. Ponytails — high or low?
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
Last weekend hanging out with my family over Easter I really thought a lot about counting my blessings. Life is very short, and everything is temporary, and I see that much more clearly as I get older.
I think it helps to take a moment from time to time when you feel stressed out to close your eyes and think about some of the things you’re grateful for. It helps prevent any potential meltdowns/orange alert incidents.
Have a good week, my friend.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

Hair dryer and flat iron. Any suggestions for a good hair dryer that won’t cost a ton of money?

I think the only thing I have is a leopard print scarf, that’s two sided and has black lace on the other side, I love it though.

No, have never been to a music festival.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
A mishap? No. But my hair gets really bad in the rain, it gets all wavy and frizzy so if it rains I always make sure I have a hairband with me.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
Hair dryer, flat iron and a curling iron. I have a set of hot rollers but for some reason they just don’t work for me, I think I have too much hair or my hair is too thick. Or I just don’t know how to use them properly.

3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella? I used to, but I don’t love crowds.

5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers? None.
1. Ponytails — high or low?

– Leopard print scarf
– Multi-colored leopard print socks
– Ella has a hot pink and black leopard print collar
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
Nope. I would go to a single concert for a band I like, but not a multi-day event. I’m getting old and grumpy and can’t hang with the rowdy kids these days!
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
Yeah, usually when I forget my umbrella and it’s raining, my hair gets messed up.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
I’ve used all of the above except a waving iron. These days a hair dryer and flat iron are my most used items.
Happy Monday and Happy (belated) Easter!
Definitely a good idea to count your blessings. One thing I’ve learned as I’ve gotten older is that things in life can change in an instant. Life can be crazy and stressful, but it is good to focus on the positive – something I need to remind myself to do more often!

2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc. — None of the above. (laaaaaame-o)

4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap? — I live in Florida. So the answer is “always.” Mostly hair related because even with a hooded raincoat, there is no stopping humidity. Maybe this means I have humidity-related hair mishaps?

1. Low and loose. No headaches!

3. No… it’s not worth the hassle to me.
4. Yes. Just last week, there was a storm and I rode my bike. I had the good sense to go sans makeup all day, but I got soaked. Jumped in a pool soaked. My hair was natural all day and very frizzy and out there. I loved it! So free.
5. None. But I do wet set my hair.
1. Ponytails — high or low? both

4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap? I used to have really humidity sensitive frizzy hair as a teenager, so yeah, I had lots of bad hair days back in highschool!
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers? Occasionally a hair dryer, and very occasionally a flat iron.
1. Ponytails — high or low?
Low, a high one looks so Dirty Dancing 🙂

1x Shoes, and just today I bought a top at H&M.
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
No! I like concerts, preferably in a hall not so much in a stadium but no festivals.

My hair gets frizzy when it’s damp, but with a ponytail everything is fine now.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
Nowadays I wash my hair twice a week, then it’s hair dryer and sometimes flat iron, but sometimes I just put some oil in and hope the waves will be as planned.
I’m looking forward to my friend from university days who will visit me with her husband for the rest of the week. Karen, you are right, sometimes I also take too much for granted and forget how lucky I am.
Have a great week everyone.
1. Ponytails — high or low? Yes! 🙂 During the week at work, my hair is up more often than down, so I play around a lot with different heights.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc. I don’t think I have anything at the moment, except for maybe an old purse. But I do have my eye on Vans-style sneaks from Steve Madden that are leopard print.
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella? Nope, never liked them. I’ll go see a particular band I like, but even then it depends on the venue. Living near LA, I can afford to be picky because everyone comes through here. 😉
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap? My hair has gotten a lot of natural wave the last year or two, so I’m still learning that on rainy or damp days, blowing it out is pointless.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers? Haven’t tried a waving iron yet, but yes to everything else!
1. Ponytails — high or low?
I like both but my favorite would be a low side ponytail.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
I clearly have an obsession with leopard-print scarves because I have one from Target and 5 from H&M. I also own a pair of leopard-print flats from Target.

I prefer going to a concert that has seating so that I don’t have to stand for a couple hours.

Every single time it rains my hair gets frizzy or poofy. #curlyhairproblems
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
I use my hair dryer and flat iron the most. Sometimes I use a curling wand.
1. Haven’t worn ponytails since I was a kid.
2. I don’t really like animal prints- they make me think of very young or very old people, neither of which I am.haha!
3. I have been to a couple local fests, but nothing lately.
4. One time I got caught in a tremendous storm and was soaked to the bone, my mascara was running down my face in huge black streaks.Come to think of it, this has happened more than once.
5. Hair dryer 4 lyfe!
1. Ponytails — high or low?
Low-ish. My hair is now too long (read: too lazy to cut it, with a boyfriend who apparently loves Rapunzel hair…) to really pull off a high ponytail, and I think my face is too round to really make a high one work anyway.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
Erm…I went through a weird leopard print shoe phase (or I’m still in one I guess), so I have 3 pairs of heels, one pair of flats, one pair of leggings (for those days when I feel like looking like Peg Bundy), one cardigan, a leopard print-accented belt, and a silk blouse. That’s way more than I thought…yeesh…
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
No. No immediate access to a bathroom is pretty much my definition of “do not want to go there”.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
Yup – I had smeared mascara on an entire train ride and I didn’t find out until about an hour after I started working.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
Hair dryer/diffuser only in the winter, flat iron, waving iron, and hot rollers. I use the rollers the most since I’m lazy and it’s cool to just throw your hair up and leave ’em in for a while.
Happy Monday Karen!
Just came from watching the Boston Marathon!! It runs near my house. It was very emotional but so much fun! 🙂
Here goes with the poll:
1. Ponytails — high or low? Low–today my ponytail was through the back of my Red Sox hat (wooo!)
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc. Just a scarf. 🙂
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella? I prefer small shows but I do like the summer concert series that’s outside each summer. 🙂
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap? ha! Well I have really curly hair so that = frizz for me.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers? None, air dry the curls! 🙂
Happy Monday (subtext: after a long holiday weekend, sigh). 🙂
1. Ponytails — high or low? High, unless I’m doing pilates. Otherwise, all those backwards rolls kill my noggin.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc. Have you ever heard the joke about the wide mouthed frog? Well, I’m saying “nothing” out of the smallest possible corner of my mouth.
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella? No, I like the idea of it but, like you, don’t care for the reality. Not only that, I have a weirdness that makes me irritated when songs are changed from the *exact* way I’m used to hearing them on the radio. HAHA!
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap? Oh, gosh, probably once per week. Wind-related is daily!
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers? Daily hair dryer. That’s more than enough heat damage for my poor locks. 🙁
1. Ponytails — high or low?
I really only do ponies when I exercise. VERY ocassionally I’d do a mid messy pony with a headband. A high bun on the other hand? All the time!
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
Actually, I only own one leopard thing, and I’m wearing them today! Banana Republic leopard ballet flats, which are the most comfortable flats I own.
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
Ew, no. I don’t like indie bands, drugs, or being dirty. I am not their target audience! I seldom go to concerts, only when it’s someone I’m DYING to see.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap? Who hasn’t? Usually when I straighten my hair it rains.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers? I use a hair dryer maybe twice a month– I prefer to minimize heat damage by letting my hair air dry overnight. I use a flat iron maybe twice a week.
1. Ponytails — high or low? High, even though I haven’t worn ponytails since graduating from high school.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc. –None. I don’t like leopard print (or animal prints in general).
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella? Nope. The crowd would probably kill my soul. :p
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap? Probably just some mascara smudge due to the rain, nothing too crazy though.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers? Umm.. none? 🙂 I use my hair dryer maybe once a year…
1. Ponytails — high or low?
Always high.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
I have a leopard blouse, a leopard cardigan, a leopard cardigan, many pairs leopard socks, and a pair of leopard sandals :3
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
Never been to one!!!
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
Oh god–my hair always gets super frizzy when it rains and if rain gets on my face, my foundation gets all streaky :/ Not to mention runny mascara.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
Hair dryer, curling iron, and flat iron 🙂
1. Ponytails — high or low?
Both, but I tend to do medium, right at the ear ponytails most of the time. Those high, right-at-the-crown cheerleader ponytails can make my fine and thin hair look even finer.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
I don’t have any.
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
I haven’t been to any. I have thought about going to Ravinia, which is a medium sized dance and music festival where I live (it’s nothing like Lollapalooza which drives millions of people to Chicago.) but I think I’m not quite socially ready for that. Bowling and the water park tend to be my limit!
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
Yep, many, many, many times. I’ve had my had curled just perfectly (which is a very rare occurrence as my hair does not curl well) and I went out and it wasn’t the rain that killed my hair…it was the wind. Sigh.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
I have a flat iron, hair dryer and a curling iron, but I rarely use any of them. If I use any of them, it’s probably a curling iron or flat iron to make a bad hair day into a good one (and I use a lot of heat protectant!) Mostly, I just brush, pull up into a braid, ponytail or bun, and go.
1. Ponytails — high or low?
High. I only use low when I wear a baseball cap or bike helmet.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
Off the top of my head: make up bag, pointy toe heels, equestrian shaped hat
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
No.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
Nothing memorable.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
I own all but the waving iron. I use a hair dryer daily. The rest occasionally.
I totally agree with you on feeling more grateful for things and being thankful for life as we get older. I felt it at a young age from doing the ER/Trauma but as I get older I have an even greater appreciation for the little things in life.
1. Ponytails — high or low?
~I prefer low to mid-level ponytails. High ponytails are cute, but a low to mid-level fits my personality better – laid back and athletic.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
~I actually don’t have anything in leopard print. Most of my stuff is in neutral colors or the rare bright color.
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
~Never been, but I suppose I should once in my lifetime just to see what all the hype is about.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
~I’ve had makeup run, and I’ve had hair frizz/get unruly. For rainy days, a French braid fixes the hair problem and either no makeup or waterproof makeup is the way to go.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
~Sometimes (but very rarely) a hair dryer, and sometimes a flat iron.
1. Ponytails — high or low?
Low, I don’t have enough hair anymore for a pony, but my daughter prefers them low.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
Zero! There is a pair of flats I have my eye on though.
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
Nope, I like to sit too much to do an all day festival.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
Just last week I was caught in a deluge. Goodbye straight hair.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
Hair dryer, flat iron and curling iron.
1. Ponytails — high or low? I like high buns (hun)! Ponies are too complicated for me b/c I always have bumps that I obsessively have to smooth into the tail and it always just looks whack. A messy bun though – who cares about bumps?! Bump it up, yo!
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc. Hmm…not a single thing. Am I even female?
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella? Gawd I would LOVE to go to Coachella! I used to be HUGE into music festivals and outdoor concerts. I once slept in a van with 7 other friends for two nights at a music festival in Virginia. Now I’m like, “Sleep in a…van. With 7 other people? No.” If there’s no king sized bed, I’m out. I do still enjoy a good summer concert outdoors with a mondo cup of beer.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap? I haven’t but an old friend of mine once had her self-tanner start running off her face and it got ALL over her white (of course) shirt. She was so embarrassed!
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers? None of the above. Again, am I female? Sometimes I wonder. But seriously, I just prefer the way my hair looks air dried. It gives this fine mop some volume. And it’s easy as pie, which is another huge plus!
Good tip about taking a minute to count your blessings before going Code Red. My wedding is in 5 days and I just keep trying to breathe deeply whenever stress pops up. Remembering that all that matters is I’m marrying my very BFF4L is what always brings me back from having a rocking-in-the-corner moment! Well, that and thinking about the h-moon!
Happy Monday, boo! :*
1. Ponytails — high or low? Low because they are more comfortable, but high ponies are cuter!
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc. umm tops, night gowns, scarfs, shoes, rug, my dogs harness is hot pink leopard, & my horses have a ton of leopard tack! I love leopard & zebra print!
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella? Can’t say I’ve been to one, but it’s not really my cup of tea.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap? Plenty! I’ve been poured in multiple times, and boy is it miserable! In college I may have skipped class because I was soaked from trying to walk to class!
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers? Hair dryer, flat iron, curling wand, & curling iron.
1. Ponytails — high or low? Definitely high!

1. Ponytails — high or low?
High! I love low ponies too, but high is so much fun.

Couple pairs of shoes, scarves, blotting papers.. I’m sure there’s a lot more, just can’t think of it.

I have yet to go to Coachella.. cries. But, I did do iHeartRadio last year.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
Yeah, good ol’ frizz and mascara run.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
I own all of the above, but use my hair dryer daily and curling iron for special occasions.
1. Ponytails — high or low? Either or! I love ponytails 🙂
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc. I have a total allergy to animal print stuff, especially leopard and zebra. I just feel cheaper than cheap in it, it’s terrible! (Just a personal aversion though – everyone else is entitled to wear as much as they please :-D)
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
Not at all – I’ve never been to a music festival, unless orchestra trips count 😛 My husband is a veteran of many a (death)metal festival, though.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
Every time it rains, a big drop will find a way to splash into/ruin my eye makeup. WITHOUT FAIL. Consequently, I now wear waterproof makeup in winter as well as summer…
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers? None of the above! My hair gets shampooed every second day, air dried, and put into a polytail or bun. That’s literally all that ever happens to it, LOL!
1. Ponytails — high or low?
– I have very thick and curly (or coily) hair, so high ponytails doesn’t really look like ponytails. They look more like an afro on the back of my head. I do however like both high and low ponytails. My hair is actually in a high ponytail right now.
2. List all of your leopard-print shoes, clothes, mugs, bags, scarves, furniture, cat collars, etc.
– I have a pleated leopard printed skirt.
3. Do you do music festivals like Coachella?
– I have only been at a festival once, for one day – but I hope to visit the Roskilde Festival some day.
4. Have you ever had a rain-related hair or makeup mishap?
– Again with the curly hair… Whenever it rains, I look like a sheep.
5. Which of the following do you use: hair dryer, curling iron, flat iron, waving iron, hot rollers?
– Hair dryers are my worst enemy. I don’t need anymore curls, so no hot rollers or curling or waving iron. I don’t like to straight my hair either.
