Something very alarming happened to me, and the rest of the world last week. Kim Kardashian went platinum. Now this was not totally out of the blue because she has been threatening it for a while on all of her social media accounts… but what ever we thought she (and by she I mean Kanye since he pretty much runs the Kim K show these days) was planning, I am not sure that anyone was expecting her to step out full platinum. Personally, I think she had more potential to break the internet by going platinum than her original attempt with Paper Magazine. I mean everyone knows she has a HUGE behind, right? No one was ready for platinum, especially not me. I have taken a few days to reflect on this situation before posting about it mainly because it sent me spiraling into an emotional identity crisis, so I needed to take a few days to get myself together again. I am kidding. Sort of. Long story short, I went through many feelings and emotions in the days following Kim K’s platinum debut: At first I hated it. I thought it was the worst. I thought it was the stupidest idea ever and I was super pissed off at Kanye for enabling such activity. But then… as the days went on and Kim's instagram account kept flowing, I began to (in the words of Kim herself) ‘feel her look.’ I like the swooped back thing she had going on, and the whole deal was just starting to look very chic to me. Currently, my mood towards Kim’s new ‘do is positive. I am actually fighting very real urges to follow suit, just like I did when she went regular blonde. Don’t worry though Courtney, (my hair stylist at Tuscany Salon and Spa – she’s the greatest, people of Cincinnati. You need to look into getting an appointment with her) I am most likely not going to totally go off the deep end and ask you to bleach my head. Other people have reacted to Kim K’s new platinum look in other ways, lashing out through really hilarious memes. (I could not find the origin of either of these images, but a big Kudos and digital high-five to the brilliant mind that came up with these gems.) Mainly, what I am feeling is this: Can I pull of platinum blonde or not? I would never do it. But should I? I don’t know. My struggle is so real.
