[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 120760, member: 1991"] This brings back memories of the time easy child 2/difficult child 2 "did her makeup" when she was 3 years old. I took photos, but it was the only roll of film ever lost in the processing lab. The little darling had not got into my makeup - no, she had found her own. Indelible felt tip markers. I had a set in rainbow colours. She had coloured in her lips with the red marker, painted on eyeliner and big stripes of black lashes, above and below her eyes (like a china doll), scribbled blue on her eyelids (for eyeshadow) and painted circles on her cheeks with hot pink. She met me at the door with her face painted, wearing my high heels and a long dress. It took some days for the colour to wear off - it wouldn't wash off and I was reluctant to put solvent on her face. But at least she hadn't stained anything else with her experiment. difficult child 1 wanted to dye his hair blue (to dress up for an animé convention). He'd already been growing his hair, it was a mop like a Beatles cut. I bleached it for him (with him screaming the whole time about how much it was stinging) and then we put the sky blue colour through it. Over the straw yellow, it looked more turquoise than sky blue. The dye also kept coming off onto his pillow at night and as it slowly washed out, it became more and more green. He swore blind he'd never dye his hair again, but he's beginning to talk about giving it another go. I'm not sure how well it would go down with his new boss, though... Marg [/QUOTE]
