[SJ] Are SJs allowed to have pink hair?

[Anew Leaf]

I've never been a fan of blue, purple, orange, or green hair, but I absolutely love pink hair. I think it's so beautiful. In 2 years I'm going to join conservative corporate America working in the financial industry and I won't be able to get away with having pink hair again ever in my life, so I'm thinking NOW is the time to do this. I like pastel pink and I have long hair, which I want to keep long.

And the INFPs have their results, Captain.

PINK! PINK! PINK!

I wish I could do pink hair. My hair is so dark its like brown-black. Le sigh. Blondes have more fun because they have more options.

Hey, I know one ISFJ who has pink hair!

...

She totally counts.

I'm completely bleached and have hair down to my hips. Granted, the people at the salon are amazed at the fact that my hair can take this abuse year after year. I've found you have to be willing to maintain it. Get a hair mask specifically for colored hair, and buy it at the salon, the expensive kind. Then have your hair checked every time you go back to have it colored again, and get rid of the damaged parts. I tend to have few damaged parts as I take care of my hair. I only once used hair dye to use at home and found that my hair was completely dried out, so now I get it done at the salon every time.

I say go for it Giggly, have fun!
I'm platinum blonde myself but I've been thinking of adding some lavender streaks

I've had it done too, not pink but other all over colours and highlights. But since my hair grows around an inch a month, roots were an absolute pain since they had to be touched up once every two to three weeks for the all over colour. Highlights were easier to maintain.

Yes, I encourage salon treatment too for any hair treatment. While mine is asian hair which can be nigh on indestructible since it's so thick per strand, if Giggly has fine or fragile hair, this isn't a good idea. And if she's on a budget, this is a very bad idea.

As far as the colour itself, I'm not a fan of pink in general but encourage the fun nature of hair colouring and non-conformity.

 

[Amargith]

^ to all of it. And yeah..the roots are a pain *sigh*

 

[FDG]

Sure they are, pinkish hair is lovely, especially when long. But they're not allowed to think they won't be allowed to do something because they'll join the financial industry - that's a dangerous thought.

Yeah, my problem is that you're stuck with one color then. And while I love that color, it doesn't work with all the styles of clothes I like to wear. So I'm contemplating adding some extensions when I feel like being quirky, and keeping it lavender-free the rest of the time

You have to coordinate your clothing purchases with your hair. My hair has had some form of hot pink for several years now. My closet primarily exists of pink, purple, blacks and greys. All colors that would work with pink. And for lavender, blues would probably work as well.

Green is an ugly color anyway. Who needs green clothes?

I wish I could do pink hair. My hair is so dark its like brown-black. Le sigh. Blondes have more fun because they have more options.

My hair is very dark brown. Ive bleached my whole head before.

Granted, it seems to me that my hair is A LOT more resilient than other people's. I have chemically raped my hair with perm solution, gotten it straightened, dyed it dark, bleached it blonde, redyed it... Over and over in relatively short periods of time, and my hair has never shown any signs of damage.

I used to do the Rogue (Xmen) look. With the two white streaks in the very front? And when I say white, I don't mean blonde. I got that shit white white white. And I ended up using this strong crazy bleach that I found at a store that was intended for black girls hair which is a lot thicker/darker/coarser. The sales lady looked at me and was like, "Honey if you put that on your thin white girl hair, it gonna catch on fire." After about 6 months of that, my hair finally showed signs of some dryness/breaking. That was the only time Ive managed to injure my hair.

 

[Amargith]

Yeah but I love to pull the marilynn monroe bit, as my INTJ is mad about red, which kinda doesn't work with lavender hair. And that's just one example. I tend to like the flexibility to not have to colour coordinate my entire wardrobe, though it is tempting at times...Also, I checked. He's always said he doesn't care about what colour my hair is...Today he added that the hair *has* to be a natural colour though

I'll get the lavender hair extentions though...he can grumble at me the days I feel like going lavender all he wants to

 

[Patches]

My ENTJ kind of likes the punky girl look. One time I went blonde with no pink highlights, and looked really plain. He was like "NO. FIX IT." A few years ago he wouldn't let me cut my hair short, but more recently he did. I did a faux hawk cut, and he really likes it.

 

[Amargith]

Grin, mine used to only have the rule that it had to be long. The haircolour he could care less about. Today I showed him the pics of what I liked. He instantly freaked

It's funny how they can never tell you what they like but know instantly what they don't like
Mine tends to be amused by my quirkiness but when it goes overboard, or what he perceives overboard, without any real purpose, he rolls his eyes or goes just: 'NO.'

 

[Elfboy]

this woman (euphemia li britannia from code geass) is an ISFJ with pink hair. I think it works rather well

 

[Thalassa]

Yes, but only an SJ would ask if they were "allowed."

I used to dye my hair in high school to please myself and piss other people off.

 

[Patches]

...People get pissed off over dyed hair?

 

[Thalassa]

Yes it made my grandparents very angry.

I would either shoplift the dye, or buy it with money I made working once I started, and dye it when they weren't home.

 

[Viridian]

Yes, but only an SJ would ask if they were "allowed."

You win the thread. (No offense, Ms. Giggly. )

 

[Giggly]

Elfboy, but her hair is not pink. I really do like pastel pink.
Still trying to figure out how I'm going to do this without damaging my hair a lot.
Thank you everyone for the encouragement though!

No, but SJs are allowed to follow orders. So I order you, Giggly, to have pastel pink hair for a period of 2 years.

But really, your ISFJ, not ISTJ... it's pretty common for SFJs to want to express themselves through style/fashion, even if it's kinda quirky.

Thanks. You get it.

It depends on what colour the rest of your hair is
Here's pink tips on a brunette:

^ I'm like this girl. Thin, same hair color, style, and similar facial bone structure. I haven't been crazy about highlights/streaks/two-tones, but I like hers. It seems more healthy for your hair but I still prefer the look of the all over pink more.

Sure they are, pinkish hair is lovely, especially when long. But they're not allowed to think they won't be allowed to do something because they'll join the financial industry - that's a dangerous thought.

Maybe but it's my perception that it's true. I don't want them to judge me and not give me a job.
I need a job to survive.

 

[Elfboy]

minus the lip piercings, I think this girl did a pretty good job of dying her hair pink in an aesthetically pleasing manner

 

[Giggly]

Sadly, I've only ever seen long pastel pink on mannequins or doll heads. I sure hope it's possible for real hair. maybe I'll buy a bubblegum pink wig and test it out.

Ooooooh. The light pink highlights. I want that all over!
Hot pink is pretty too but it's too much for me.
I wonder if she's naturally blonde.

It is possible if you are either a natural blonde, or if you strip your dark hair with a certain chemical before adding the dye.

It shouldn't mess up your hair too badly if you only do it once.

You could even get it "fixed" later at a salon.

I think I'm slightly bothered by dying only the bottom parts because it sort of looks like she dipped her hair in liquid bubblegum or something. Looks messy.

It will really depend on where you're getting the job and what sort of job you hope to have.
