compulsive hair disorder

[mizkit]

The other day-several days ago now, on a brief shining moment of sunlight which has not been seen again, sigh-I got a look at the amount of white on my scalp. I actually have an *excellent* natural Rogue streak going on. Unfortunately, it’s the stripe of hair that falls down over my ears, rather than being at the front or even at the temples,

This has been the War Room's Dyeing Weekend (thankfully not Dying Weekend) - I did mine yesterday (or rather, got it done) as a crimson dip-dye... No bleach involved though.

Weirdly, the other Alaskan-in-Ireland I know used to also have a Rogue stripe, although hers wasn't directly Rogue-inspired.

You know you can get hairdresser's to dye to go actually white rather than just the blonde from bleach... My hairdresser showed it to me one time I was talking about going white for a change...

Hairdressers are reluctant to damage hair that badly if a substantial amount of your hair is not already coming in white. :)

I have what I like to call "Nature's highlighting" -- silver hair that is coming in mostly in streaks, which so far looks kind of cool. Someday I will undoubtedly hit a point where the streaks outnumber the dark brown...

Yours is way cooler, though.

I admire all of you, with your funky-fun hair. As I said on Twitter, I'm far too lazy to do anything with my hair that requires MAINTENANCE! , so I'll just have to be the oooo-ahhh crowd. :-)

Ironically I am getting an ever-increasing streak of grey coming out in my forehead... but it just generally dullifies my hair and isn't very distinguished at all. I've been pondering adding henna except there is a risk of ending up with shiny new penny hair in not a good way. (And it sounds like grey hair gloms up the henna even more so it would give me a carrot orange streak on penny hair.)
