Yesterday, while standing outside of my classroom waiting to greet my students, I overheard two young ladies (not my students) discussing something.
The conversation went like this:
Girl #1: “I really like her hair.”
Girl #2: “Who’s hair?”
Girl #1: Points to me.
I had to insert myself into the conversation by asking, “You like my hair?”
I’ve been putting hot rollers in it lately…don’t ask me why…and it’s got a lot of bounce that I’m still not very confident about.
The conversation resumed…
Girl #1: “Yes, it’s pretty.”
Me: “Why, thank you!”
Girl #1, speaking to Girl #2: “I like the way her hair is brown halfway down and then is blonde the rest of the way. I’m gonna get my hair done that way.”
Me: “Um…I didn’t do this on purpose. It’s just my roots growing out.”
Oh.
My.
Apparently, two-toned hair color is the “in” thing now.
Who wouldda thunk that I would actually be in style…while the style was still in style…if you get what I’m saying.
This is a totally accidental thing. I can assure you that if I’d tried to be in style, it would have backfired on me.
