Hair... by Christine Bush

Pandemic hair. 

This week I’m getting my hair done. It’s been almost 5 months. I’m actually stressed about it.

Not necessarily about virus-worry, as it sounds like the salon is doing everything right.  It’s about my hair. Long, shapeless, roots winning the fight.

When I was young, I wore my thick dark brown hair long, long, long.  Then I cut it, right about when my first daughter was born, many years ago.  It’s been very short ever since.

“Get a new do!”  “Let it grow!”  “Go grey!” Everybody's got an opinion.

OK. True confession. I’ve dyed my hair for 20 years.  My brother’s hair began turning white at age 26. Mine waited a bit longer than that, but as soon as those salty strands appeared…  Bang.  I got rid of them. Boy, are they back!

Now some people can handle grey with Pizazz.  Could I?

  

A new do?  I don’t think so.

                                        

                                                                                  Smooth and no curls?  Too much work.

 

Let it go LONNNGGGG?  I don’t think I’d live that long.

Messy as usual, but grey?  What’s the point?

Beside the fact that MY grey looks mousy and makes NO statement at all.

So I’m going for the hair dye. Roots be gone.  And the old haircut.  Enough of this crazy contemplation.  I’m going for the usual.  NORMAL. After all, normal is what I’m wishing for in every aspect of the wild and crazy world. Normal will be good.

I’ve been writing characters of different ages in my books. Some and young. And some have GLORIOUS grey hair. What age of character do you like to read?

And also, I’d love to hear what you think about hair!
