Do you know Singer Billie Eilish ...

19-year-old Grammy winner seen here in 2020 and in the past few years, is no longer sporting her green hair.

Thus reminded me of another story. The star of the story is a former student, but still like family. He is 40 now, with an amazing wife and two beautiful girls. But, back when he was about 13, his Mom came to see me after Karate class. She said, 'Brandon wants to color his hair!" Beautiful black, shiny hair. I thought and then asked, "how are his grades?" She said, "Great, he's an honor student". I asked, "how are his friends?" Jean said, "great, we love his friends". So, I said, "shine the hair! It's only hair and it will grow back, no biggie!" And so it came to be, Brandon showed up with green hair, then purple, a weird ponytail on top of his head. Even red tips on the black hair. And the kicker is, his Mom, Jean, colored it for him. Now, as great husband and Dad, he is back to shiny black with maybe just a couple of greys. But he has his great memories how he felt with colorful hair. Same great guy, no biggie.
