overlap

Here's a couple of views showing two variants of the same thing - my attempts to see what help I can give my natural hair. In the first, you can see my unwashed hair, and in the second you can see it freshly washed and blow-dried. There's a pretty clear difference in how well the colour matching of the synthetic hair works, depending on the state of my own. It's the same synthetic shade in both cases, and I think that in the second it's not a bad match at all. To be honest, this whole thing is something I find quite difficult even owning up to, never mind discussing, which is why the link to here has conveniently disappeared from my poster-profile somewhere else for a day or two. I'm under no illusions about the natural inevitability that my hairline faces, and for the most part it doesn't bother me, but when I'm spending this much time and effort on my hair and I'm still not satisfied, it's time for some serious thinking. Not because I'm desperate to have the best hair in the world, but because I really don't want to have rubbish hair. And I'm no longer convinced that my hair on its own is enough to go with a dress or skirt outfit in a way that I'm happy with.
