Inspired by, like, rainbows and stuff

As anyone who has known me for any length of time may attest, I have a bit of a habit of spontaneously and dramatically altering my hair colour. I don’t think it’s that crazy or “out-there,” but the way some people react you’d think I’d somehow crossed some invisible line of hair-ness that defines acceptable as anything that doesn’t make oneself resemble a My Little Pony. So, for anyone who is wondering about the moral-socio-historical-structural-economic position behind my occasional forays into multi-coloured hair, let me assure you that I hadn’t thought it through in any depth beyond, “How am I going to afford to pay my hairdresser?”

Of course, this is a blatant excuse to share some photos of some of my hair’s incarnations this year. For the record, my hair is currently sitting somewhere between jet black and my natural colour, which happens to be dark-reddish brown (which, like my naturally green eye colour, is a throwback to my Irish and Scottish ancestors).

March 2012

March 2012 – the token photo that was taken on an actual camera, as opposed to being snapped on an iPhone.

April 2012 – No, wait, I think this was taken on a real camera, too.

April 2012 – yay! Arizona Stronghold t-shirt!
