I was inspired by British songstress Kate Nash, with her super cool stripes coupled with vintage make-up but she isn't known by many so when people ask about my hair I have to tell them Narcissa Malfoy. (I would take Narcissa any day. The number of people who have called me Rogue from X-Men……)
The dye job is pretty unique and meant to look rather skunk-like. I'm really glad the hairdresser got it right!
When I sent my sisters this picture, they completely freaked out, thinking I went all blonde.
I get a lot of strange looks. Looks of shock, of disgust, of intrigue. But I don't mind those. It's when people STARE, that's when it becomes so annoying because frankly, it is plain rude to stare. But I've learnt to ignore them.
At the cafe I'm working at, however, there are some customers who like to give their two cents worth. Some are cute, like this middle-aged who asked me if we would like to trade because he'd do anything to rid himself of white hair. Then I got an ah lek who first asked me how old I am, and then proceeded to make a jab at how I look old cos of my stripes. Didn't your mother ever tell you if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all?
But at the end of the day, I really love my hair. I've always wanted to do something crazy and never really had the chance being cooped up and controlled by the rules in school for the past 12 years of my life. Truth be told, I love it even more because a lot of people don't like it. And I think it's here to stay. Even if it will blow various holes in my already ruined pockets.
