I love it when people ask me about my novels and short stories.  Some of the fun conversations that I’ve had include this one:  how do I find the various hair colors for my characters?

Talking to hair stylists is really fun.  Many of these good-natured folks are happy to share their passion for hair.  I have talked with  everyone from a fun  guy who gives hundred dollar haircuts to the great young women at chain salons such as Hair Masters.  They can really tell some stories!

Of course, at three in the morning when I often do a lot of my writing, my friends at the hair salons would not appreciate a. being woke up  b. being interrupted during party-time!  So, I’m on my own, and that’s a scary thought! Especially since I’m a wash-and-wear sort of woman.

For those long nights, I hit a website called Best Wig Outlet.  www.bestwigoutlet.com  They actually have a chart of a wide variety of hair colors.

So, there you have it.  My secret.  Be sure to visit the Best Wig Outlet.  It’s a fun place.
