you know, LMo, i've thought of that. i really have. thing is it scares me too much. with the DID, changes, even small ones can upset the apple cart drastically

a simple haircut can be a HUGE ordeal. i have to stick with things the same...hair, makeup, clothes, etc. if i deviate from the "norm", i shatter
unless i can find a way to get around the tinting with color, i'm probably going natural. i can't stand that orangish tone, because it LOOKS sooooooo fake. would rather be dull
ty so much for helping me on this.
