First of all, that term - root rot. It's so vile. For those of you
who don't know, it's what happens when your hair is colored, but you
haven't had it recolored for a while. All of the fresh, untainted
hair is called root rot. Ugh. Even something like "virgin root" or
"baby root" (a vaguely cute pun) would be nicer.

Anyway, whatever you want to call it, I've got it. At this point my
"virgin root" is about two inches long. It is starting to get
embarrassing. And while for most things, I tend to choose natural,
good-for-you products, with hair dye, I go all out. In fact I use
Wella hair dye, straight from Sally's Beauty Supply. Nothing natural
about that, but it's cheap and it lasts a very long time, hence the
reason my two-inch long root rot is so distinct.

My hairdresser and I had a falling out and now, I'm faced with the
challenge/hassle of figuring out what to do about it. I think it's
going to come down to talking one of my friends to do it for me. I
have all of the product, I just can't seem to get good full coverage
when I try to do it on myself. My hair's too thick. Plus it can get
pretty messy. I've gone the "friend" route before, but it really is a
lot to ask of someone. It takes a lot longer than you'd think. And
not everyone loves spending 30 minutes mashing color into someone's
head.

Maybe I'll just cut all of my hair off. I'll keep you posted.
