Happy Birthday!!

[Madam Corvax]

And Happy belated birthday from me, too.

I am late alas, however on checking the time zone map, your birthday is still somewhere in Alaska.
It is eight o'clock in the morning here, Corvax Time, which is eight hours earlier than Movie Goer time and nine hours earlier than Barend time

[SimeSublime]

And seven hours earlier then Sublime Time.

Thanks again, everybody. There's nothing like going to a kickass rock concert as a birthday present to yourself and then spending two days straight doing homework (or trying to find the motivation to do said homework). Today, Monday the 8th, I will, if all goes well, finally dye my hair as black as my outlook on life is. Oww... headache, lack of sleep, one more week of classes... I can make it, I think.

[Madam Corvax]

Don't do it... Espacially not with a black dye. I did that mistake a year ago. The dye was supposed to wash off ... it never did. Now I am stuck with growths. When you have long hair, you have to either cut it or dye it every two months, or end up looking silly....Like I do now...

[Slade]

Since when have I cared whether or not I look silly? Never. Sometimes I look silly on purpose. You have a pic of yourself, Madam, so I know what "growths" are?

[Madam Corvax]

Oops, I must have used wrong exp​ression, sorry. I think "roots" would be better. It is just when you dye your hair, it grows back your natural colour, so you end up having two-coloured hair, if it is long. I have this lovely washed-off black below ears, and my own muddy blonde above.
And since I have been growin my hair for four years, I would not want to chop it off to get rid of the black. I can dye the roots again, but then you have to do it every two months.
So I look silly instead.

If you really want some change, have your hair peroxided. You can always dye back if your natural colour is darker, no problem. It is making your hair lighter that is problematic, because you have to damage the hair to get rid of the natural pigment.

[Slade]

Ah, well, I dyed it black, or rather attempted to. It came out a dark brown with a reddish twinge. Last night I was irritated because it wasn't black, but this new color is kind of growing on me. When I get back from class I was orignally planning on re-dyeing it a bit, but last night I stayed up late playing World of Warcraft (My review of it is "Meh." at the moment, but I haven't played as a member of a group yet, so there might be fun in that aspect.), so I'm going to sleep for 4 hours this afternoon and then take an open book practical on writing xhtml/css. If you know anything about these topics, you'll know that I could be done in 15 minutes without knowing any of either language if it's open book.

[Madam Corvax]

Well, I don't know anything about xhtml/css, whatever that is. Something to do with computers, I presume? Well, I am a lemon on that, but good luck with your task anyway.

Did you use a permanent dye or colouring shampoo?
