to think that if you knew you were gong to be on international teevee, you'd get your roots done?

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

[shallow]

I would :)

ffs

Why?

Who?

YABVVVVVU to spell TV 'teevee'

Ah, thought there'd be a link! Who?

I did.

Yes but I think Eurovision is the perfect example people have zero concept of what is acceptable image wise.

I said EXACTLY that to my husband when I saw her!

Don't you like my hair? I did it specially. Shall I put a head scarf on?

But presumably people are judging you in real-life if you've not done your roots. Why are the imaginary people on the other side of the TV screen any more important?

whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo?

Why? Not everyone is obsessed with how they look, some people have more important things going on in their lives.

I have no idea who this is a reference to, but unless it's a hair dye manufacturer or model demonstrating same, then presumably the state of this person's hair has no bearing on their abilities or reason to be on "international teevee" so anyone shallow enough to judge them on that basis can go swivel.

For fucks sake. You need to get out more, OP.

Agree with fire

I presume you are talking about a woman

Men on tv don't get judged for not 'doing their roots' do they?

I would judge men, if I saw them with roots. Like <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?hl=en&sa=X&rls=com.microsoft:en-GB:%7Breferrer:source%3F%7D&rlz=1I7DSGJ_enGB389&biw=1366&bih=681&tbm=isch&prmd=imvnso&tbnid=Zvzk5JKT1h_HlM:&imgrefurl=www.unrealitytv.co.uk/tag/andrew-stone/page/2/&docid=Oykhh_tu5IsESM&imgurl=static.unrealitytv.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/andrew-stone.jpg&w=280&h=390&ei=7eYUUJyoAoHL0QWl3oHoBg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=185&vpy=154&dur=232&hovh=265&hovw=190&tx=82&ty=119&sig=113902974186322993665&page=1&tbnh=143&tbnw=120&start=0&ndsp=19&ved=1t:429,r:0,s:0,i:87" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this chap, the triple threat star in the making.

YABU. Not everyone is that vain.

YABU to expect other people to have their roots done.
YANBU to say you would've got your own done (and I'd have DEF done mine, shallow or not)!
I think Ms Jackson should've done hers but I won't argue with her because she is 6ft 5

Just cos you're precious about hair colour.

I think some people are more nervous about looking 'fancy' than anything else.

If you're talking about a TV presenter, then I think YANBU, as thats about meeting certain standards - just as in many jobs you are expected to conform to a dress code and be presentable.

If you're talking about someone appearing on international TV for other reasons, then YABU.

But you don't seem about to tell us who you're on about so who knows.

Oh.

Surely if you aren't "obsessed" with how you look, you wouldn't have had significant blond/blonde highlights in the first place?

[confuaed]

And to the sexism comment.

Who, who, who?

LRD! I so am, but I am a completely slightly grey brunette and need them doing every 17 days!

Sometimes I wonder if growing out fashion colours is actually a statement itself?
