Hair color is a tricky business. Knowing what shades work well with which skin colors, how to place highlights for maximum impact or how to get color that lasts are all topics that send shudders down the spines of mere mortals who're equipped with nothing but a celeb photo they want to copy and a box of hair dye they're praying will work wonders.

While that's weird (and kinda sad) for him, it's also a bummer for yours truly because scents are important to me.
