Yellow Hair
Blond or whatever
Little kids refer to blond hair as “yellow” and choose a yellow crayon to illustrate it. Somewhere along the way, they learn to call it “blond,” but still use “black,” “brown,” and “red” to refer to other colors of hair.
When I worked in the beauty industry, every stylist I interacted with worked to “correct” any yellow in a client’s hair. The desired blonde shades were “icy” and “cool.” I suspect that’s just another invented flaw (like gray hair) to bump up the tab. My stylist was appalled when I told him I liked my yellow hair and refused a toner. (And if I really cared, toning and glossing hair at home is pretty hard to mess up.)
