The mirror never lies

Well.

Last night I braved the horrible plastic gloves (provided), and dyed my hair. As ever, it is neither as bright nor as red as the box promised. Comments at work, however, suggest it's noticable.

However, my hair being red is not surprising. What is surprising is that the bath is still white, the walls are still blue, and even the towel involved has returned to its original colour. Yay.

While I had nothing to do but sit and change colour, I found a tube of mysterious clay face mask in the cupboard. (An occupational hazard of having a friend who's a beauty editor is the possession of all manner of weird and wonderful cosmetics/toiletries.) It's bright green, so for a while I wandered about like a confused and doltenism-smitten jumblie. I'm not sure my face is any different for the experience, but it was fun while it lasted :)


For those that requested it, a photo will be forthcoming as/when I corner someone with a digital camera.

(And [livejournal.com profile] edling, I'm still not convinced about this Skinny Puppy lark.)

From what I can remember of them, they're kind of a forerunner to Slipknot, aren't they? Loud industrial noises, masks, screaming. Shite.

You shouldn't beat about the bush so, just come out with what you want to say :)

Loud industrial noises

Check.

masks

I dunno. It's hard to tell via CD.

screaming

A little.

Shite

I'm still holding judgement on that one. There are a couple of tracks I like. I'm not sure I'd liken them at all to Slipknot.

But thank you for putting Vatican Broadside back in my head after I spent the last 24 hours making it go away :(

Inarticulate noises of shock

Yeah, those too :)

You feeling any better ?
