When I say “it’s for me” it’s bc I like partaking in the act of putting it on. It is a skill, and an art form, and I appreciate the fact I have become highly skilled in various techniques and methods within the form. But also I rarely wear it out in public so I suppose I’m not your target audience with this one
I love my original hair and I dyed it because I like it an unnatural color more. I did not dye my hair to attract others, no one has ever told me my hair would look better as a different color, I just think it’s cuter. Idc what anyone says about my hair, thus, a change for myself only.
It’s perfectly ok to want outward validation, but changing your outward appearance is directly related to other people. It makes you feel confident because other people think you look better than if you didn’t do it. If you didn’t care you would feel fine looking however you woke up like. All of this is ok tho not saying it’s bad Just saying it really is all for other people at the end of the day
