Red is a thing, man. I've been dyeing my hair since I was 12 and I still want it to be more and more red. Actually, let me rephrase that, I want it fire engine red, but job hunting, ya know?dANdeLION wrote:She was pretty at least till Moonstruck (mid-eighties?), but some time after that she started looking weird, in that 'too much plastic surgery' way.

The thing I worry about is my daughter. I've always told her she is beautiful, smart, perfect, the whole works. She dyes her hair every now and then; always auburn (she was blonde as a baby, but her hair is gradually turning brown). I just hope I didn't say something the first time she dyed it that makes her want to keep it red.
And it all grew out eventually. (Lately she's been keeping her hair really short and wearing wigs. Sometimes she swaps wigs partway through the day, just to confuse people.

I'm not happy with dark brown, and I tried bleaching my hair once; I looked like a pumpkin after. I think red compliments most any skin tone and eye color. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
Oh! I misunderstood your original post. I thought your ex had dyed her *own* hair at the age of 3 -- so your 11-year-old's dyeing her hair now would be, y'know, genetically based.___ wrote:I was at work. If memory serves, one of her brothers came home from school with lice, and she got it. My ex reasoned that dye would kill the lice. That is not true, but it was no less pointless a venture than arguing with said ex, so there you have it.
Straightening irons, on the other hand, seem to do a reasonable job.aliantha wrote:Oh! I misunderstood your original post.

The real story is actually funnier, in a way. (And you were right -- arguing with somebody who thinks hair dye will kill lice is a losing proposition from the get-go...)

I actually enjoy being with women who have a high self-confidence. One of my best friends is a woman who other women hate. They say she is "conceited", etc. But in actuality she is very attractive and knows it. It's actually very refreshing to be with a female who accepts that she is beautiful.Cambo wrote:This is no misogynistic rant. I'm just hacked off because last night I talked to the fourth gorgeous female friend in a month to admit to having self image problems. And apparently, they are the norm. I heard the other day that only 1% of women think they are beautiful. Now, I happen to think that about 90% of women are beautiful in some way. The reamining ten percent are either over- or under-weight, which is my only real turn-off. (And I don't mean naturally big or small. I mean the health-risk kind.) Very few people seem to agree with me on this, but meh.
