August 24 - Day #175
Dear Diary,
Me and Will started our college course work again. Summer break is over now. I was made very clear of that when the moment I entered onto the campus Will's lab partner, Jane Wilcox, was all over me, specifically my head hair. I guess it makes sense, I am their lab assignment and she hasn't seen me in a few months. We get along pretty well, even if she gets to be a bit grabby and finicky about my hair. Saying things like I need to brush it better, or how I am going to ruin it by taking such hot showers, etc...
I wouldn't say I am interested in her, but apparently neither is Will. She seems to be more like his cousin or sister sometimes, based on how she acts around him, so the guy was likely friend zoned, hard. Maybe they dont even realize it which is the worst since that kind of scenario can trap people who want to date each other for years since neither thinks the other sees them that way, and yet they act more like a couple anyways. I'm not saying that is what is happening here, but I can see the potential. Maybe I need to step in to assist and be the wingman for my best friend.

P.S. I tried to help Will out and I was wrong about the relationship between the two of them, but also right in a way. They actually are distant cousins. Thanks for convenient ly not telling me that bit of info when you introduced her to me Will!

August 25 - Day #176
Dear Diary,
Today, I was maybe asked about my hair 30 times. Yes, I am aware that it is very light colored now; No, I did not dye it; Yes, it is now much more fine and shiny; I realize that it is long enough to hang down below my chin, etc. For fuck sake people, I think I am fully aware of my own hair situation!
Well, at least when there is bad, there is some good too. Most people that commented, said they liked it. Quite a few of the girls wanted to have it also. Especially when I explained what was going on. Then they all seemed to suddenly want to give me quite a few tips on maintaining it since many of them were worried that I would more than likely end up ruining it. Honestly, the tips were actually sounding pretty helpful.
I did wonder why they all suddenly started giving me advice, and when I asked Jane about it, she said that if they were successful, people would potentially be able to pick and choose their hair color with a drink. No more long trips to the salon, or multiple dyeing sessions just to get the dye the right shade of color, and no more damaging or drying it out from using too much product. Plus, the hairless body side effect could become a major selling point. She went on and on about how women go through this painful process of hair removal using lasers and lights that burns and how it takes forever. I drank 1 cup of liquid and got the same effect as what often takes multiple years of numerous session of burning each and every hair follicle with a light. That alone is apparently a huge deal, and could make the three of us extremely wealthy if it is able to be made into a real product.
I understand why the sudden shift in tone happened with the girls now. Hopefully Will and Jane do manage to fix me after this is all over with though. And also, what am I going to do about every girl in my classes now wanting to give me stuff. Even two of my younger female professors sent me emails offering to help Me, Will, and Jane out if we needed it after they caught wind of what was going on.
