I don't like lies.
I don't like blondes with dark eyebrows
or highlights
or dyes
or straight-headed curls
or curled up straights
or hairs pushed and prodded that
pull and that yearn
or beg of their head
to
"Let me be me."

I like hair. I like when it's flyaway and wild, when it's silky and tamed, when it's dark and sleek, when it's bright and sassy, and when it's right in between. I like hair that curves down in cascades, that streaks past the shoulders, that bobs at the ear, that frizzes, that puffs, that isn't afraid of what it is.

That's funny. I hate hair.
ReplyDeleteThe dark eyebrows. It IS bad.
ReplyDeleteYeah, fake blondes are probably the worst waste of hair.
ReplyDeleteugh
Whenever I see dyed hair I always think "I wonder what her hair color would be otherwise" and her eyebrows are so dark and it's like OH I BET SHE WOULD LOOK SO PRETTY WITH DARK HAIR
and my soul shrivels and dies.
WELL JANELLE I guess I wrote this for you then. It is for the people who don't care/understand.
My eyebrows are slightly darker than my natural hair colour...and I've never dyed my hair at all. But yeah I know what you mean.
ReplyDeleteHaha. Well, good that you aren't unnecessarily offended then.
ReplyDeleteAnd sometimes the best kind of eyebrows are the ones that go POW and smack you in the retinas.
Most of the time, anyway.
BUT they have to do it subtly.
I care/understand, but I still don't like it. Have you SEEN my hair? It always LOOKS dyed, but it pretty much never is. Once, I dyed it just to make it look like it wasn't dyed. Plus, it's neither curly nor straight, so it always looks like it's either half-straightened or half-curled (badly). The color of one's hair is just the beginning. There's also the frizz and the split ends and the "but your hair would look so nice if ..."
ReplyDeleteI don't want you to think I'm offended, but hair is, well, a great representation of everything I dislike about myself.
You guys don't know how easy you have it.
Eeh. Guys still worry about it some, but more than that we worry about our facial hair. I've known guys who spend more time grooming than a cat spends grooming. It's insane.
ReplyDeleteThat's why the Cheshire Cat is invisible.
