This is a post about my violet hair

I figured this was a good place to post about my hair because it seems to be the only thing of interest for most people. Firstly, I don't have this hair any more. I miss it sometimes but I have a bad habit of just going back and forth between pink/orange and purple/blue. I am trying to break that cycle and do more colors in the same spectrum before changing it drastically again (for my hair's sake). My violet hair was dyed with, surprise surprise, Violet dye by Punky Color. I've been asked about how light it turned out, because this dye tends to start out really dark purple (think black-purple a la Veronica from Archie comics) but mine was vibrant from the start. Well, it was an accident. I had light lavender hair at the time and I planned to start by just dying my bangs. I only put dye on my bangs and a couple strands of my hair. When I washed it out, the dye bled so much that my whole head turned violet (but a faded, much more vibrant purple-blue than it would have been had I dyed my whole head!) Anyways I hope this helps all you aspiring purpleheads!

on sex work

I'd like to first point out that these are just my opinions, and that they are coming from a place of solidarity and not of experience. I am not trying to speak for sex-workers - I am only trying to start a conversation! I think it's necessary to actively think about these things in order to make any real shift in consciousness. Sex Work is Real Work We are constantly bombarded with the message that sex workers are troubled. Watching day-time television I have witnessed Dr. Phil repeatedly demonize sex work and those who participate in it. It’s dirty, and dangerous; they must have suffered as a child or lacked a fatherly figure. The two-dimensional stereotype attached to sex-work is ignorant and perpetuates a culture of violence against innocent people who are just doing their job (which there is and likely always will be a market for, I might add). There may be risks that come with a line of work which often requires secrecy and vulnerability (to some extent), but ...
