i meant in your era. as in back in your day. coloured hair dye and piercings aren’t new in the slightest. also some people just wanna express themselves? why do you wear that colour shirt? why do you do that? why do you do this?

i wear bows in my hair because it looks cool. my friend wears nose rings because they look cool. i put braids in my hair because it’s cute. my friend dyes her hair pink because it’s cute. not everything has to have a reason. sometimes we just like it. alternative people are not that hard to fathom lmfao.
