Day 223

Day two hundred twenty-three

June 12, 2013: And my hair still smells like an alfalfa field. So yeah, Katy, Megan, and I had planned to dye our hair with henna a couple of weeks before Megan got here. The brand we got was from this place called Henna Color Lab. Katy and I went for the pure henna, while Megan, a little more reserved, got the ginger blond. The dye came in a powder and all you had to do was add water. Well, the powder was a brownish green color, and only got poopier looking the wetter it was. Plus it smelled like a pond covered alfalfa field. So the three of us went outside and scooped handfuls of the henna goop and slathered it into our hair. It was quite fun watching Katy do Megan's hair, as ever thirty seconds Katy would either sling globs of henna goop everywhere, or Megan would scream and writhe in pain. Katy's hair was just plain tedious. My hair only took a few minutes. After two hours we rinsed the green goop out and discovered that we all had brilliantly red hair, that stank to high heavens, and is still stinking. I spritzed some Mango fragrance on it this morning, and it made my hair smell like an alfalfa field covered in Mangos. The color is great though, and if the smell goes away in the next day or so it was more than worth it. Come fall I might experiment with some of the other colors they have.
