You have to be totally blind not to observe various hair  tips or streaks of color, these days.  I have seen women who have had their hair not only colored in some “nonhair” color like green, purple or pink but some of had their  hair colored to GRAY!  That is the one that amazes me since I pay to try to blend in the old blonde with the patches of natural gray I now have.  Life is indeed strange!  I am very jealous of the beautiful natural  Irish white hair.

This is Alice who had , preciously,  asked  her mom to “tip” her hair in green.  Turns out that  the non-permanent product to use is Cool Aid .  Worked fine and lasted through several washings. Alice was happy and mom was happy!

On one chilly morning at Canada Lake, the three girls persuaded Katie to use purple and tip their hair.  She agreed and decided to use foil   as in beauty shops after applying the pasty purple Cool Aid.   Here is a picture of the process and the  girls waiting in great anticipation to unfloil and be delighted with purple tips.

We left on the foils  almost an hour to insure new color especially for  the brunettes.    Bummer, not a purple strand in sight and no idea why !  Oh well,  off to the lake and a canoe ride!

The boys had been using  sayings all week. . . . If they were successful at something. . . . . they yelled  “AmeriCAN”. . . . . . . .

Now with the failed Cool Aid purple hair job. . . . .    It is . AmeriCAN’T !

 Sweet Memories. . . .  .
