again, but turquoise. & with an x-men theme.

Last night, two of my roommates expressed their desire and determination to not only dye a strip of their hair but to dye it that night as soon as we got home from being out. Since Ricky's was closed, we settled for picking colors from Duane Reade (no Bettys please).

Jeannie opted for a deep, rich purple, which originally came out cotton candy pink but we did some mixing of colors and redying, and it came out pretty chic. (No picture per her request).

Mallory wanted a rich and vibrant blue. And as much as we redyed, it remained a washed out bleach & greenish blue fade. AND she chose to do it in a very conspicuous spot.


No worries, we went out this morning when it still looked like a faded blue-green-bleach color and got some Manic Panic from Ricky's. All should be well in about 5 minutes.

Since Jeannie's new nickname is apparently Storm, Mal dubbed herself Rogue.

Our other roommate Jen had contemplated doing some red (wisely desisted, as Jeannie said, since this morning was her first day working at Sony). But Phoenix anyone?

As for me...


You can call me Hank. Or Beast.

But really, I'm happy that it came out the right color this time around:

It makes me feel really young. Plus.
