Man, I’ve bought so much fresh produce at the ranch this weekend that the farmers will probably be really glad to see me go. I’m looking forward to trying out new recipes and old favorites with all of this food though and really, at the end of the day, I’m the real winner. Anyone else buy produce this weekend? If so, what are you planning to make with it?

Not sure about that but thank you. I’ve enjoyed changing up my looks during the seasons. We did an arc in the fourth season that required me to wear a long wig and it was very clear that it wasn’t my hair. Aww, I’m glad to hear that. The two of you are pretty adorable, you’re lucky to have found each other. 

I truly believe that, you look great with any kind of hairstyle! Plus with the summer coming in it’s quite great to have short hair. Really? I watched a few seasons of AOS, including the fourth and didn’t even notice a thing. But maybe that’s just me? You think so? I guess I am the lucky one to have found someone amazing, that’s for sure.

Not a bad trip if you ask me @thesupershrinkingrouth

📍: Joshua Tree, California

Well well well, rumor has it that I actually have the whole town to myself for a while why everyone is on this trip. I could go dancing alone, I could raid all the stores. God damn the possibilities are endless. I might even buy a bird, who the hell knows, what I do know is hello hello Bayview I am Candice Patton. Here to grab you and hold you all to myself.

Aw babe, you came at the worst time I think. I would’ve loved to have seen you! But you know what? It’s okay because now you get the chance to chill with yourself for a while before we come back and bother you. You should totally get a bird! Train it to talk and get things for you so you don’t have to do anything. No I am kidding because that sounds boring not to get anything for you! Hey Candice! I am so glad to see you in town, I will make sure to save a date for you as soon as I get back so you can hold me all to yourself.

I think I’ve had a half a dozen different hair styles over the course of my show so I totally get it. Maybe when it all comes to an end, I’ll shave it all off. There’s nothing wrong with not always have big changes going on. Bayview’s a great place to just be. Now that the weather’s warming up, there’s so much to do outside. What kind of things are you interested in?

You are like the queen of hairstyles though, you really suit all of them. I couldn’t really change my hair much due to Laurel always having her hair long. I am actually okay with not many big changes really. I am happy just with life currently. You’re totally right! There is. Well I love Fashion hens the store, I do love the beach so I will have to go and check that out soon. And of course, as cheesy as it is to say Brandon since I love being around him.

Hey, I actually just cut my hair too. Now that you say that, nothing has changed much for me either but I think you pull off the short hair very well. Maybe I was being rebellious, but I miss my longer hair. Eat something spicy? Sorry, that joke was rubbish. Are you in town? We could totally do something, because I am free today.

Did you really? Well looks like we’re hair twins don’t you think? Looks like we’re on the same boat maybe? Thank you so much I love your hair too honestly it looks great. I actually don’t miss mine, having short hair is so easygoing and you don’t have to worry about taking care of it too much. Don’t worry, I laughed honestly. I am in town! I would absolutely love to do something with you.

“If you’re open to accept changes they can be pretty good. But sometimes you’re just at a place where nothing really needs to change because you’re happy as it is and it’s fine. Stepping outside your comfort zone is an advice people give a lot but I see no problems on being inside of it. You’re very welcome. I guess the only problem with really short hair is not being able to tie it easily. But looking for the place is the fun part. I like starting conversations with elders, they always have a lot to share.”

Aw you called me great and now I feel all warm and fuzzy inside - well you said great people in town but since I’m currently in town that includes me and now I’m happy. The new look suits you even if that magical change hasn’t happened yet, i bet it’ll happen when you don’t expect it.

Why absolutely! I love the sound of that, I also adore making people feel warm and fuzzy inside. Well I would hope that you’re in town otherwise you wouldn’t be a true Bayviewrian or however you say it right? Thank you so much! Now you have me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. Maybe you’re right, I should just stop expecting it so maybe it can happen.

Short hair tends to age up a person for some weird reason. Just add a good suit, and you’ll mean business. Dealing with long hair can get really exhausting. You always have to make sure that it doesn’t look like a bird’s nest whenever you leave the house. Do you know how to give haircuts? Asking for a friend… and myself. I normally have my hair up in a bun whenever I’m cleaning or doing things around the house, but I mostly like to have it down. Oh, good! Did you do anything fun this week?! 

Right? I find the logic behind that quite weird to be honest with you. Doesn’t really make sense, but I guess younger people probably wouldn’t cut their hair so maybe there is some kind of meaning behind it. I know that I was getting tired of the bird’s nest I had to deal with every morning that’s for sure. I actually do! I did my dad’s hair a couple of times and a few of my siblings. So you can say if my fashion business doesn’t work out I can always fall back on hairdressing. I did! I went to the park with mine and my sister’s dogs. What about you?

Haha thank you! Well, I haven’t entirely changed my life yet. Some stuff have changed though. I can finally get some rest, for example. And trust me, that’s quite new to me. Free drinks? Yeah I can do that! Just don’t tell it to the owner of the bar because he might not be happy about it. You should come by tonight, it’s my last night as a bartender so it might be quite epic.

At least you can say you’ve changed something in your life though right. Even just changing a few things still count, I am sure of that. Well you know I would always let you have free clothes so I would hope for free drinks. Don’t you worry, my lips are sealed. I did! It was an awesome night, did you have fun bartending? I have never actually done it myself.

See, I can definitely relate to that. Well, kind of. After Glee, I just let my hair grow out until they cut it for Hedwig. And I heard about it ending! I know I’ve never been to the set there but from talking to Grant I hear it’s had been a fun show and a good run. Eight seasons. That’s a pretty big accomplishment. Well, after spending part of the day volunteering, we took the kids to the aquarium because we had promised to go find Nemo.

Into a big curly thing? I like it. We sure do change our hair when we finish a show right? Since the hair was for our character, now we don’t have to worry about it right? It was a really beautiful show, and although I am overly upset that it’s ending... I think it was probably time. Oh that’s amazing! I mean I don’t have any kids to do that with, however... Did you actually find Nemo?

It’s really nice to meet you Katie! I think I may take you up on that offer at least for a few things I need help sorting out. Wine lover huh? Same here! I am so glad your night went well though. 

Oh perfect! I can be right over whenever you need me to help you! Oh totally, wine is the ultimate cure after a long day at work, or just when you feel like relaxing, perfect for someone like me who can’t sit still. Thank you lovely! How are you liking Bayview?

Was there a reason why you wanted to cut your hair? Was it more because you didn’t want to deal with your long hair or other reasons? I’m always scared that I’m going to cut too much and I’m not going to like it. I’ll live vicariously through you. Are you going around town for volunteer week? There’s a ton to do!

Actually a bit of both, there was the reason of a show ending so I decided to change it up a bit. I’ve been told I look more mature which was a bonus. That and the other reason being I didn’t want to deal with my long hair anymore. Really? I can always give your hair a cut if you ever need, and I will promise not to ruin it! My recommendation would be to use hair ties, they always help with the length! Oh bless your heart you’re so sweet. Yes indeed! I haven’t volunteered unfortunately but I am still going to support the fellow residents.

Hair and a show ending are two pretty big changes. You look great by the way. As for something to spice things up, I’d suggest getting ready for Easter with some egg coloring and baked goods. 

Really? Huh, I actually never thought about that. I just thought since the show was ending I might as well give my hair a cut to mix it up a little. Oh thank you so much! That means a lot. Egg coloring and decorating sounds like my strong suit with the designer inside me.

I love that quote. It’s something I tend to remember whenever I do something a little bit drastic with my hair. The change might happen when you least expect it? It could just be waiting for the perfect moment to surprise you. It’s definitely a weird feeling when a show ends especially one you’ve been involved for a long time; bittersweet I should say.

Me too! It’s such a beautiful quote said by a beautiful person. Do you really? Well I can say I love your hair right now, it’s totally beautiful! Maybe you’re right? I mean nothing too lifechanging has happened just yet so I am just hunting out for it. Oh you’re totally right about that, it’s almost heartbreaking but I have been working on the show for 8 years now... So I mean maybe it is time to say a bittersweet goodbye

Can we change the sentence and say “people who change their hair are about to change their lives”? Cause that’s what I’ve done after shooting Thrones. I cut my Jon Snow hair and I’m really happy to have it shorter now. Anyway, how have you been? Come to The Rusty Wheel! I’m working there for three days and I promise you will have fun.

Oh yes of course! It’s totally better for those other males right? Really? Well you look awesome with short hair I will tell you that for free! Have you changed your life yet though? The real question here. I have been really well, keeping the store underway has been a blast! The rusty wheel? I will absolutely come hey I might even join you working there. Do I get free drinks or at least a discount?

“Well, maybe the great change is still going to happen, maybe you have get really big and good news coming your way. You never know what fate has planned for you. Though I don’t like to give haircuts that much importance. Yours look amazing by the way, really suits you. Short hair is the best option for sunny and hot days. Ideas? How about going to a place you’re not used to and maybe making new friends there? I do that every time I’m bored.”
