So. I coloured my hair the other night. Medium brown with a bit of red in it, which is pretty close to my natural colour except that my hair has been going grey since I was 24 and I’m still too vain to give in to it just yet. I did it myself from a box, and in the middle of the process I dropped the applicator bottle and it hit my shirt on the way down. It put a big stain on my shirt.
I am telling you this in case I randomly disappear, because frankly, that stain looks an awful lot like dried blood and under the wrong circumstances, and if I weren’t around to dispute the idea, someone might get the impression that I was stabbed in the stomach. (Was I watching gangster movies on the weekend? Yes, yes I was.)
Let me confirm that I was not and have never been stabbed in the stomach. Or anywhere. I actually work quite hard to avoid the types of situation that might result in a stabbing. (Although I’ve been told that I accidentally stabbed my best friend in the hand with a pencil in the fifth grade. I have no recollection of this, so I guess I blocked it out or something. She, however — oddly enough — remembers it quite well. She’s still my friend though, so I guess she didn’t hold it against me.) Just now I briefly considered taking a photo of my stomach for you to show how wonderfully unstabbed it is, but I am just not that confident about my abs or lack thereof. So you’ll just have to take my word for it.
I mean, I am writing this, so I think that’s some kind of proof anyway.
LOL! I’ve had that same experience. I used to dye my hair dark red and my “dying” shirt looked like something out of a horrow movie. Damn those early onset grays (I’m 27 and my “tinsel” pokes through like clockwork every eight weeks)!
🙂 Yeah. That shirt has even been washed in that photo. It was even worse before. I came out of the washroom in it and my husband looked shocked and said, “Oh my god, what did you do?”
Take it from a longtime ‘dyer,’ wear black next time. And the next 😉
Sure, I’ve already ruined this shirt. I think I’ll just keep using it.
Yes! It can be your go-to shirt everytime you dye your hair. 🙂
Might as well. Can’t see what else I’ll do with it now. It was a pyjama shirt, but I don’t think I can even use it for that at this stage. A little too disturbing.
