The Rainbow of Librarian Haircolor

on Oct 20 in Avenging, Librarianship by

From a New York Observer Wedding Blog article on coloring your hair before the Big Day:

I’ve been trying to perfect my hair color for over a year now. My natural color is sort of a “meh” librarian brown.

In rebuttal, I direct you to this rainbow of librarian hair I made using librarian photos from flickr. Take that, forces of visual subjugation! We are multitude! We are legion!

    What happened to mousy brown? Was she afraid of offending Minnie and Mickey?

    I have been trying to figure out if my hair is in this mix! I totally think I am the fourth one from the right….

    Very nice idea! Librarian hair rocks!

    Yes Jessica you are represented. I love your hair! You are next to the purple hair, taken from your wonderful bershon photo.

    That is so cool!
    Like many women, there’s a a lot I’d change about my looks, but my hair isn’t one of those things. Thanks!

    As a hairdresser and the mother of a librarian whose hair has been various shades of blue and plum, I applaud your bustin’ out of the mold. The example that you are setting for your library’s patrons is worthy of commendation.

    This makes me worry just a little less about putting a purple wash in my hair and dying the fuchsia streaks again.
    Or maybe I should waint until I actually /have/ a job?
