Bangs or Botox

My mom always told me this would happen. I've got extremely fair skin when I tan I'm just a darker shade of pale. She spent the better part of my childhood slathering me with spf 7,000. I hated it.


Why can't I be dark like my dad? He can think about going outside and get a dark complexion.

In my 20's I resisted my mother's teaching and went sans spf for 10 years. Nothing happened. I got a few more freckles but nothing more.





Today, 5 months 25 days after my 30th birthday I discovered wrinkles on my forehead. The perminante kind not the kind that you experience when a surprised expression crosses your face. My mother on the other hand looks like she's 22. Not a wrinkle, not a freckle, not a laugh line, nada. She of course is obsessive about spf's.

I figure I've got two routes to avoid looking 10 years older than my age.
1. BOTOX
2. Bangs

Mr. Johnson would flip his wig if I took door #1. So I opted for option #2.
