Pink Hair


Tonight I decided to temporarily dye my hair pink.  My roommates tried the classic Kool-Aid method, and I used a chalk mixture.  It actually turned out really cool! 

It was funny though because the first thing we did when we finished was take a picture to post to Instagram.  I have started to notice that people are more preoccupied with getting the perfect picture to post to Facebook than actually enjoying the various activities of life.   Anytime someone takes a good picture it is automatically considered a “great profile pic!”

I think taking pictures has evolved from wanting to document your personal experiences for a scrapbook or photo album to needing to share everything with the world on social media.  Does anyone else find this to be true?

Anyways, here’s a picture of my hair because I am definitely guilty of posting my pictures immediately on social media.

  1. I agree with you on that people no longer take pictures to remember events. Instead people want to take the "perfect" profile picture. I am guilty of this also. Thinking about it, the only time i take pictures is with the purpose to eventually post them to Facebook. P.s love the pink hair!
