Where in the World is Bob Saget?

I'm thinking about dying my hair an unusual color. My hair is naturally black. I'm not sure what color to change it to yet but I want to make a statement that's fun and trendy. Talk me out of it or convince me that I'm on to something.

Once again, I have to advise you against this. You are too old to be doing that and I don't think our US Embassy would advise it either.

Have you dyed your hair before? Being that it's naturally black it'll have to be bleached if you're going all out. Have you thought about frosting the top with highlights? A dark blue or purple goes well with dark hair. Green or orangeish red goes with light hair.

I have natural Merida hair and will never change it but my niece dyes hers all the time. (She's naturally pale blond.) Currently it's highlighted blue to match her marching band uniform.

I love my hair color. It's light brown and turns blonde in the summer (or in FL). Never changing it; it suits me very well.

I think I should print this, frame it and set it on kitchen table for whenever my DS is home.

Our first cordless landline phone looked similar to the first one. My DH had a Nokia that looked like the middle one ( I had the Motorola flip phone prior to Razor that a gorilla could stomp on, loved that analog phone.)
Now we all have iPhones.

Da Bears are playing. Not loosing yet.

Yep, even though it hasn't been as crazy-hot this summer, it's still been pretty darn toasty. 55 sounds really good about right now. 45 sounds even better, actually.

Yeah, you've had a much more tolerable summer this year. Woot!

 

[Gabe1]

Oh goodie! You hot weather fans are finally coming to your senses! Cool rules!!!!

We are in the 70's and I'm loving it. 70's year round is my dream.

Ravens are losing. To Cincinnati. Parents are at the game. I've got an odd setup going here; laptop open with homework, tablet with Netflix open, and then TV on mute with football.

70s here too. Meh. I'd rather it be in the 80s or 90s. It'll be in the 80s on Thursday.

Well my first thought was Stop It. On a whole that is a high school thing and even in High School the trend is all but gone. If you are going to attend these functions go to Sally's Beauty Supply and purchase the ones that will wash out the next morning. I don't think this is Walt had in mind when he made his comments about not growing up. At somepoint we all had to grow up, get a job with health insurance and a 401K, move out of our parents basements and take responsibility for our futures. Hard to do with purple hair as the statement you'd be making, I have the maturity of a teenager, isn't what will land you a good job or any job for that matter.

You asked.

I love "Walt's World" . . . life is so pleasant for him!!

Walt has a good life filled with love, food and good times. His motto is all humans are on earth for him.

• September 7: National Acorn Squash Day

There was plenty of squashed acorns on the riverwalk this morning. Count?

So sayeth the one who slurps anytime a food or beverage product is mentioned.

Our students cannot do that. Their hair must be natural or dyed to another natural human hair color. If it distracts they are suspended until it is dyed to a natural color. Same goes for the saving of heads into odd designs, gelled into strange sculptures. Not happening.

Okay, add a cat to my odd setup here...TV on mute, laptop with homework, Netflix on tablet, and a cat on top of me.

Ha! That wasn't even clever this time, you're slipping. Diligently you lurk and troll the thread lying in wait just throw out your little pathetic zingers to members. Oy.

Grown man seeking out opinions on hair color has what correlation to a forum post with the word Slurp? Nothing.

He asked and he got opinions from several members. Your post is correlates or is relevant how? It isn't.

Just another useless pot shot, the of being mean but I think most of us are bored with the feeble attempts. But all might not be lost for you, maybe you'll get some crossover coveted "likes" for the post. Whoop-dee-doo!

You are my DD if we exchange the cat for a dog!

Relevant? Dear Lord I hope not. If I were to be posting words of relevance or meaning, that would truly be 3 steps backwards for me.

We have a reputation to uphold down here in these parts.

A hairdresser once told me that the hair color you're born with is usually the correct color for you. However, when people aren't sure about a color change, the suggestion is to go a shade slightly lighter than what you presently have, and see how that looks. If you have very dark brown or black hair, sometimes some subtle red highlights look very nice (but I'd suggest a professional do this type of coloring for you). Rule of thumb in color is that often a little goes a long way.

Now, if you want to do something more fun and colorful, there are preparations (sprays, temporary wash-in colors, etc.) that will wash out in 1-2 washes. Perhaps that might be an option for you on certain occasions (a concert, party, etc.), versus doing something a bit more drastic, such as permanently adding in a more vivid color.

I'm thinking something like one of these...



That's Daft Punk, by the way. They did the sound track for Tron Legacy. I look more like the guy on the bottom right with the dark hair...

... I guess what he did was use a highlight color...
