“If you want to dye your hair green and that’s what makes you happy, then dye your hair green — no matter what other people might say about it. Not everybody is going to like you, that’s the world we live in; that’s reality.”
Good advice from someone who's sporting a bright red cropped hair cut, although she's rocking a blonde coif on the cover of the magazine.
