Silly Girliness

After having Greg quit on me early tonight in World of Warcraft, I found myself at loose ends. I finished my current book (Michael Flynn's In the Country of the Blind, which was about secret societies using psychohistory a la Asimov's Foundation Series). Then I was poking around online, and found Clairol's Try-it-On Studio, where you can upload a picture of yourself, then try out an assortment of hairstyles and colors. Their goal is clearly to sell hair dye, but it's still an entertaining site. The main downside: there are no extreme/unnatural colors, since Clairol doesn't sell any.

Some of the decent results:

I discovered that, as I expected, I look absolutely awful in blond or other light colors. Most medium/dark browns and reds are okay, and black makes me look washed out.
