Blonde hair has ruined my life

Transcript

I unintentionally discovered that I've actually been nerfing myself for years. So this is my profile picture on TikTok, right? I was like, in theory, what would it look like if I just had my natural root color as my entire hair color? Oh, hello. I think it looks actually a thousand times better. But then I was like, maybe it was just the photo, so I took a screenshot from a video I haven't edited yet. Yeah. So it turns out that all those people that have been telling me to go brunette have not been haters. And I've been bleaching my hair for no reason for the last 10 years of my life. So awesome.
