Never did get the whole dying thing. I guess it was fun punk rocker shit when it was still novel but that wore off decades ago.

As for cutting I went about a decade without cutting mine before swapping over to cutting it ~weekly in my own bathroom, with a brief stint spent spending $10-20 every couple months feeling like a total fool for doing so.

The whole cosmetics/beauty industry is an abusive shakedown operation.

And usually it just serves to make people look fake more than anything.
