St. Patrick's Day Green Hair

I never thought to question the story tellers who have now passed away HOW the hair was dyed.

Just this week I was considering doing that little trick myself if it were just a put on / take off play with my hair for a day.

So I did an Internet search.

The end result, without investing a huge amount of time, is that I don't see it being done, by me at least.

The jello rinse doesn't seem to work according to what I read. (And my thought: we, in Texas, have ants year 'round and I don't want to invite them into my house).

There are apparently commercial hair rinses you can buy, but may not come out in one rinse.

You may achieve the results with a dunk in a chlorinated pool if you are a bleached blond, but I gather that's not a given.

There are wigs - at expensive and the lesser costs stores, depending on the price you wish to pay and / or the quality you wish to present to the public.

You can certainly dye it on purpose but that is a commitment.

There are certain stores that sell green hair extensions / clip-on hair pieces.

Bottom line - my hair will stay as it is.

I will proudly wear the green for my Irish heritage and the fun of it all and enjoy every minute of it.

I will buy my green beer where I can find it and not worry about what they have added to it that makes it a green color or try to make my own.

I will eat the traditional St. Paddy's food. (Please read my post under my name for my favorite recipes that I make.)

And I will get ready to celebrate Easter.

But my hair color will not be that of an Easter egg of any color or design any more than it will be green on purpose on March 17th.

My clothing may look out of the ordinary however.............
