pixiecrinkleI don't understand why when I got my nose pierced, it was 5 days before anyone at work noticed and had the guts to say anything, but I color my hair and immediately many people feel it appropriate to say things like, "You dyed your hair." What on earth is the response to this? It's not a compliment, so one doesn't say "thank you." I don't feel it's something I should have to discuss either. I need to consult Miss Manners.
I almost replied, "And you're going bald" to one person. Seeing as how we seemed to be playing a game of notice the obvious.
Of course, if I would touch up my hair color more regularly, no one would notice when I come in and it's different. I'll admit it's a lot different today: darker than it's ever been, and more purple than red, but still. I wish I didn't sit directly below a light--then people passing by wouldn't notice it quite so much.
This sounds pissy, but really, I do like the way it turned out. I feel like I look a lot better with darker hair.
Maybe I'll post the chronology of all my hair colors/styles later on. That would be a fun project.
