my mother says i was born with golden red hair which disappeared after the ceremonial head shaving. i got black hair instead. which i have been okay with... more or less
during my maternity period i experimented with pink and purple strands but had to loose those for my very short office tenure. anyways recently i colored my hair in a very light shade of golden brown. you can call it blonde too. loreal calls it somthing else.
too many friends and family members did not like it and i am okay with it as long as my son my husband and me likes it.
but the strangers in my life are the most uncomfortable with it.
a cook in my society walked upto me and told me to color it black
a lady with whom i have not even exchanged names with in my society asked me the reason for such a 'drastic' MAKEOVER
and today a friend's husband who i meet annually and just politely smile to even then nagged me twice with half n hour for my hair color.
LET IT GO PEOPLE
so many of you. the blonde color is not for you to come and comment on my looks. its for my happiness.
i don't care if your hair is black, blue or purple. infact i will be happy for you that are experimenting with colors.
just don't ask me the WHY. i dont want to tell you why. i dont know you well enough to tell you why.
i act on WHIMS now and then. i do things without any reason. especially for me. thankfully my better half has learnt to live and love these things about me.
if you are a friend i may do care about your opinion. but you are not. i just know you.
so please stop getting amazed at my blondishness and take a hike.
i like me just the way i am at any given time.
may god bless your black-haired head. even if it is dyed. amen.
