You probably can!! Depends on how often you look in the mirror, how much you like yourself, and how big your vanity is!

You’ll notice the roots while you fix your hair, and maybe while you do your make-up. After that, **you** won’t see it! Hopefully your friends/family have enough caring or class to not comment. And if they do, get a little snarky! It’s your body, and your choice, after all. 😉

Make “Who gives a shit?!” be your mantra.

I have faith in you. 🙂
