Hair Dye

The only direct encounter I've had with hair dye was surreal.

Back in the mid nineties I was a naive undergraduate in the North East.

In order to avoid lectures and alleviate boredom, I accompanied a tawny-maned Middlesboro supporting peer to the local Boots.

I assumed he needed to buy some new razors, or maybe even some deorderant or aftershave. But no: the excursion was for the sole purpose of asking if they had any "grey hair dye" so he could look like 'Silver Bird' Fabrizio Ravanelli!

The confused look on the staff member's face as he kept reiterating it had to be grey has never left me.

Bet he was glad they never signed Carlos Valderrama.
 
my eyebrows need dying. Worse than that, I get occasional rogue hairs which are particularly long and tough, sprouting across my eyes, and others from my nostrils and ears.
I use pliers and shears to remove these particularly tough branches

Eyebrows are a mystery. Nothing from them for decades and then a barber suggests a trim and they go crazy. They need almost constant attention or the full David Hemmings is only a step away.

Mind you top of the pile has to be Dumbo Trumps. 78 year old blonde and they say he styles it himself ever day.

Also, he uses a cheap, portable ultra-violet face tanner that requires the use of goggles that leaves eye marks. Coupled with the feral hair piece, it is certainly a creative retro-look he presents.
 
i asked the prudish lady at the chemist about the hair sprouting out my ears. She looked nonplussed.

And thinking about hair dye. Antifa-purple........should really be patented. Very popular down the local Cat rescue shelter - but not on the cats.
