Top ten reasons letting my hair revert to its natural colour was a good idea:
10. Not putting chemicals in my hair makes it healthier and shinier
9. Natural highlights--got to love those
8. Gray is very in this season
7. I'm setting an example for my daughter that she can grow old gracefully and not buy into the notion that while it is perfectly acceptable for a man to show his age, a woman must look perpetually seventeen in order to be desirable.
6. Because screw the patriarchy, that's why (got on a little streak there. Stepping off my soap box now)
5. I now have so much more time to devote to worthy causes, like promoting world peace and supporting my local library
4. My house never smells like ammonia any more.
3. My lack of facial lines and wrinkles is highlighted even more by the fact that I have granny hair
2. It draws attention away from my dark, luxurious moustache should I not have time to bleach or depillate
1. There's not nearly as much gray as I thought there'd be!
So yeah, here's to letting my natural colour shine through for the first time since I was fourteen. I feel like such a dirty tree hugger. Next up, growing out my arm pit hair (don't laugh, I've done it before) and getting some birkenstocks.
I'm humming a Janice Joplin song even as I type...
