Hair

I can have short hair
Or I can have long.
I can color it or perm it
Nothing is wrong.
I comb it and brush it
It is soft as silk.
Sometimes I even
Wash it in milk.
I blow it dry
And curl it with heat.
To go to the hairdresser
Is such a treat.
Blonde or brown
Red or black.
My hair is thick
Flowing down my back.
Highlights and lowlights
Purple or blue.
What should I try
What will I do?

Hello Julia Keirns, You wash your hair in milk!? What does milk do for hair? Lucky you to have thick hair. Mine is is thin. One day I will do my hair in pink or purple. Enjoy your day my friend.
