Dear Arlene, It's me. Remember me. I posted that my hair was going to start eating people. I called my hair monstrous. I was trying to be funny. You know, purple people eater. I'm funny. And a lot of people thought so, too. We frizzy haired folks feel the sting of humidity for like no... Continue Reading →
