I eat beets every day and have unicorns groom it to make sure they stay pink and long!

Well. The truth is, it's pretty easy to do, once it get through the initial hurdles, both physical and mental.

The physical hurdle: Get the hair bleached and then dye. Not being perfectionist and bleaching all the way to the roots saves me from lots of unnecessary pain (and scalp mutations). It usually takes half a day, just sitting. Luckily, my hairdresser Boots is great talker!

The mental hurdle: I was shy initially to go out on the street, though at the same I forced myself to overcome it for it is on top of my head! There will always be people looking, speculating, commenting, appreciating (elderly moms are the best), weirded out, harassing and jeering (high school kids are the worst).

Life goes on, as long as I like it and feel like myself.
