After the keratin treatment washed out, my hair went completely insane. Now I can’t even hope to get a brush through it. Gone are the times when I could actually run my fingers through it. It’s all a matted, tangled mess.
Strangely, though, people seem to dig the Gorgon look. I get stopped by strangers who want to admire it once or twice a day. Maybe I awaken some archetypal wild woman thing in them that they respond to.

Your hair may be unmanageable, but it’s absolutely beautiful in that particular photograph.
Have you turned any onlookers to stone with your Gorgon gaze yet? 🙂

Thank you!
People do find me terrifying for some reason, crazy hair or less crazy hair.

Nancy Farmer, a British painter, (not the author) has made several pictures about Medusa, one of the Gorgons. Recommended! Fun! “Feminstic light”.
There seem to have been more bad girls to avoid – Erinyes aka Furies, and Harpies

Somehow the light and your facial expression remind me of a televangelist while explaining to her viewers just why contributing to the ministry is more important than that mortgage payment.
(don’t shoot the messenger).

I do agree that I would make a really kick-ass preacher. 🙂
