I am getting bored with my hair. Spiky and red has been fun, and I may keep it going for a while, but I feel like doing something different for a little while.
One complicated option I am pondering, mostly inspired by people wondering what I'd look like with a beard - let my hair grow out for a couple months more, and grow in a beard. Then bleach it as pale as I'm willing to get it, and wear it that way for a week, give or take. Then go purple or blue for a weekend, and shave off the beard. When that is over, get it cut short again and dye black over the bright colour. The final result would be like what I have now, but black, but it'd be a long, overly complicated process to get there. The growing out of the hair is necessary, because my hair as I have it now is too short to really showcase a properly iridescent colour. I'd need to find a reason to have the funky coloured hair, and take a couple days off to enjoy it, so I'd likely wait for something weird and interesting to come up sometime between November and January, if I started now.
Because I love waffles, I have made a poll so that all may try to sway me in my indecision;
[Poll #576400]
If you want to see me with various hair colours, look here, here or you can find more if you look hard enough.

longer->blonder->bearder->RAINBOW EFFECT!->black beard (or daaarrk blue?) & bald, keeping beard?
Wherein the RAINBOW EFFECT! consists of 1) placing a rat in a maze to see which color it reaches first, 2) a true "rainbow effect" where you've got a crapload of colors going on in some kind of a pattern (which may require extensive dyeing assistance), or 3) picking whichever color appeals most to you.

As far ad dying my beard goes - that way lies madness. My moustache area won't take dye, so I end up with stained skin with light brown/blond/white bits sticking out (my facial hair comes in lighter than the hair on my head for some reason).
Work's pretty conservative - "natural" colours only (as in colours found in nature on peoples' heads) - which really means basically no manic panic colours, or "weird" effects.
