Thanks for the comments everyone--I appreciate the dready love! WorldPeace--my hair is kind of a reddish brown. Totally red facial hair though--my cousin (who has red hair) says I'm only a half-ginger . Sammeh--thanks--those types of hair bands are easy to make. Just cut the sleeve off of an old short-sleeved t-shirt and you've got your hairband. Quick and easy, and they look decent! Thanks LiquidSoul--that's my favorite shirt. And yes, my hair is going quite loopy right now--I think it's partially because wearing the hairband all day at work is making my dreads kinda rub together under the band (maybe not, but that's how it seems to me.) Yep Sasha, I had been enjoying a little herbal refreshment right before I took these pics--didn't realize quite how red my eyes had gotten! Sometimes you'll have that though
