Purple pubes?

My great loving BF recently took a rather dramatic turn in his manscaping hobbie by dyeing his whole crotch region lavender purple. I am supportive of his bold move but my eyes are beginning to get sore from the luminosity. Has anyone had to deal with similar pube related hells?

No!!!! Weird?!

Sallyingforth · 08/03/2013 19:35

I hope he used a food dye and not something unpalatable!

QOD · 08/03/2013 19:36

Just don't look!!

ThePathanKhansAmnesiac · 08/03/2013 19:36

WTF...."Manscaping"?

I don't think I'd be able to take DH seriously if he did that Grin

i'm not pissed enough yet going to open that link yet, but i think that would be quite fun

LemonPeculiarJones · 08/03/2013 19:40

Hahaha!

You do realise he's going to want to show everyone, don't you? Grin

HairyHandedTrucker · 08/03/2013 19:48

dont go anywhere near him... if he sweats it'll be all over you

iklboo · 08/03/2013 19:49

Anyone else singing the thread title to Purple Rain by Prince?

Areyoumadorisitme · 08/03/2013 19:51

That is hilarious, the idea of dying pubes purple not the link (like someone else I'm not drunk enough yet!).

I'm glad DH doesn't manscape, I like a man to be as nature intended, I'm not keen on men who groom too much myself.

What colour are you going to do yours so that they don't clash???

ElkiesBrook · 08/03/2013 19:57

oh crikey Areyou Grin imagine the carnage if his were purple and hers were orange

yes, OP, you have to have a complimentary 'do'

LaurieFairyCake · 08/03/2013 20:00

Gay as a maypole.

Literally, his maypole is gay Grin

ElkiesBrook · 08/03/2013 20:03

there'd be no arguing over who forgot to rinse the shower base out would there?

sydlexic · 08/03/2013 20:03

Maybe they were going grey so so he got a purple rinse.

coughingbean · 08/03/2013 22:07

I had an exp who did this once. We are still friends and I delight in reminding him every now amd again Grin

LangenFlugelHappleHoff · 08/03/2013 23:06

I had a friend who did this last year, it was meant to be a surprise for his gf for valentines day...only...he was allergic to the dye Shock

joydevivre · 08/03/2013 23:12

No. Not into guys turning lavender on me

OkayHazel · 09/03/2013 00:42

That is hilarious!

AudrinaAdare · 09/03/2013 00:58

Gentian Violet is known to turn lady-parts deep purple.

Beat him, as opposed to just joining him.

pollywollydoodle · 09/03/2013 00:59

he just needs a hairnet now...

Catchingmockingbirds · 09/03/2013 01:00

Why did he do that?

JamEyelid · 09/03/2013 01:15

When I was 17 my ex had purple hair for a short while and he dyed his crotch purple too. Was very offputting!

TotallyBursar · 09/03/2013 01:31

It'll tone down as he washes - head and shoulders strips colour like nobdy's business!

I've got my head hair 3 different colours currently, I got keen and dyed my pubes flamingo pink. It gives me a chuckle every time I see them. DH has the hump as he wants to do his but we only have pink and he wants a nice blue so in about 3 days he'll have blue pubes and I will be happy because he will be happy,he'll giggle each time he has a wee (easily pleased) - delight in simple pleasures! 2 things will happen 1) blue transfer everywhere (blue is the worst for rub off) 2) we will both end up with differing shades of purple as things intermingle.
Life is too short & too hard for there to be any sense in denying oneself a little silliness now and again. I mean I've never wafted my pubes at my boss or whipped 'em out on the highstreet so, who will ever know? Apart from us obviously!

I won't ask for a picture...but I would look if one was available, for shade determining purposes you see.

PopeBenedictsP45 · 09/03/2013 01:55

iklboo - yes, I am now listening to that song!

Erm, it's a bit weird OP. Although I once veeted my DP's chest hair so that it looked like the bat signal so I'm not one to cast judgement.
