Allergic reactionary

(1975 May 24)

This lovely Sunday morning finds me doing housework and sitting under the hot hair dryer. The next time you see me, I may resemble the gray-haired mither the Irish tenors extol. My confession is - suddenly I have developed an allergy to hair tint, which I have used for years. I have tried various kinds, and all produce a rash over face and neck. I might just give up. The itching makes beauty seem second best, altho I have a salve to put on it. So this morning I could not bear it another minute and shampooed. Much of it is still in and not unbearable. But je souffre. Is that one too many f's?
