I'll admit it. I love dying my hair. I know it can and may eventually backfire and make me go bald, but that's what wigs are for. I have dyed my hair more than 10 times, and will probably dye it again before the end of the year. My most common color to dye it is blonde, but it has been many different colors including red, black, pink, brown, and blue (just the tips).
One reason I love to dye my hair is because it makes my hair look not greasy and healthy for about a week. My hair after it has been left alone for a while gets greasy and no matter what I do to it, it won't help. I also love getting reactions from people I know. You might be thinking I get things like, "Wow! That color looks so good!" and "I like this one even better than the last color!"
No. I get the opposite of that like, "Oh. I liked your other color, but if you like it then I like it..." But I don't know what's going through people's minds when they ask, "Did you dye your hair?" "Whoa, your hair changed color!" "Why's your hair a different color?" So I respond with, "I don't know. I woke up and it was different. It's so strange." It earns me this look of amazement.
I'm not some Horse of a Different Color from The Wizard of Oz. (but that would be pretty cool...) How do you think my hair changed color? Think about it. If I was a magic horse, I wouldn't be surrounded by people dumb enough to believe that my hair can naturally go from black to blonde.
And this happened at my 8th grade promotion. I wore a clip in ponytail-thing, because I wanted long hair. (My hair was very short) Everyone had been gone from school two hours and when we came back for the ceremony this girl asked me, "Whoa, is that your natural hair?" How did my hair go from 5 inches long to two and a half feet long in two hours? I said it was my natural hair and she was amazed. Maybe my hair was really that long. I just kept it in a really small bun the whole year.
