So you still look exactly like your avatar.

Excellent.
I am actually quite a bit less attractive.  But still ...    :viking:

My hair is short and more or less grey, so not exactly...

I'm wondering if you look like what I imagine you look like.

Hou have light hair, ren. Dye ought to take with reasonable ease. You should at least be able to dye with ease greater than my own, which is naturally dark and requires quite aggressive bleaching before dyes take well.

Darker colors, as well as more intense ones are particularly difficult. Blues are particularly problematic.
No, my hair is dark red/brown. I could dye it, but I would need to bleach it first. That damages hair so that's why I said I would wait until I'm grey to dye it.

Sounds like mine, but probably more brown...mine's like a chestnut color, you can see the red in the sun. Too dark, if it would start turning gray I would stop dyeing it.  :laugh:

Thankfully the little gray I do have seems to be dye resistant. :thumbup:

For some reason the only way I can imagine gray on you IQ, is if you have long, straight dark hair, with just a front lock of white/grey, or one either side. In an elegant, refined sort of look. I think one side would look better IMO out of the two potential styles like that. An ice-white lock for an icequeen  maybe?

Just a mental image of course, but I do reckon it would look stylish :)

When you've got the aspirator pump hooked up to the garden hose and you think to yourself 'bollocks if I'm going to squat over this buchner funnel/erlenmeyer flask, I need to go and sit the hell down and it can finish filtering by itself while I stick it in a plant pot, because my knees are aching.
