chris promised in this thread (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=5149) that, to celebrate hitting 92 customer signups a day, this week the smugmug crew would be dying their hair with electric funkadelic ultraviolet 12 megapixel hair dye :D

here's the first of what i hope to be many embarrassing photos

sunny CA? I rode the motorcycle today--electrics all the way...

Fabulous.

Hats off to Ben for caving to peer pressure like a good man should.

Can't wait to see the rest of the pics!

[Baldy]

You have to bleach first, or the green will be toooooo ddaaaarrrrkkkkk...

Ben (left) and Markham (right) bleaching onethumb:

[Baldy]

Onethumb decides beard (what there is of it) and all must lighten:

[Baldy]

Markham thinks he's Bond. James Bond. He didn't bargain for this when he joined the company.

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220060-L.jpg

[Baldy]

And yet.... He's willing to sacrifice his 1st-born...

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220046-M.jpg

[Baldy]

Andy's thinkin', "I host my priceless photos where?"

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220090-M.jpg

[Baldy]

"I staked my reputation on recommending who? Pardon while I pucker."

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220089-M.jpg

[Baldy]

Ze bleach.... It had ze effect on JT:

[Baldy]

And Markham:

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220417-M.jpg

[Baldy]

Not a lot of hair mass to dilute the bleach here...

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220083-M.jpg

[Baldy]

Onethumb goes for the Manic Panic Electric Lizard Punk glows under UV stuff. Turns out it's lame:

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220427-M.jpg

[Baldy]

JT's stuff was the genuine article. Accept no substitutes:

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220434-M.jpg

[Baldy]

Close your eyes Markham. This won't hurt. Good thing you're already married.

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220436-M.jpg

[Baldy]

Because that Bond thing ain't gonna work now...

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220982-M.jpg

[Baldy]

Onethumb goes hi-potency formula:

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14220990-M.jpg

[Baldy]

No bleach needed for a dude whose pigment vanished awhile back. Andy goes macro.

Child abuse.

[Baldy]

Ben wants to stay babe magnet so he opts for the temporary stuff.

http://cmac.smugmug.com/photos/14221034-L.jpg

[Baldy]

Maybe they should name the stuff instant Babe Magnet B Gone.

I can just hear my daughter now when she is a teenager. "Daddy dyed my hair when I was 7 months, what do you mean don't go out with that freak!"
