Just watching big brother and wondered why Darnell hasn't had his hair and lashes tinted if he hates looking different! |

I don't think he'd be able to colour it as it doesn't contain any pigment xx |

i think its more because he would change who he is.... and i think its not so much he hates how he looks, its more that he hates his past and wants ppl to see through that... |

probably wouldn't absorb colourants as no pigments and ,am guessing here, the chemicals might be detrimental to the skin the same as someone who has had recent chemo. daughter came through grey after her chemo in 2006 and was told NOT to dye her hair with usual hair colourants only to use vegetable dyes |

I watched a documentry on Albino people and there was a girl on there who died her hair, lashes and eyebrows, so it is possible... |

Things must have moved on since I did my City and Guilds then lol. I was always told that it was the pigment in the hair that changed the colour during the dying process and that hair without pigment couldn't be dyed. |

aaaaaaaaa that would be a rinse though Joy not a dye......poor doggie lol. I'm wracking my very limited brains to think of how one would be able to dye hair without pigment. I am pretty sure it wouldn't be by the normal methods. |
