    • @Tom_le_Grand
      @Tom_le_Grand  Před 6 lety

      It's all in the Orange-Teal color correction of the video. Also the light shining on my hair is daylight while the camera was set on tungsten. That setting makes daylight blue. My hair has a more brown color in real life.

      @Tom_le_Grand  Před 3 lety

      This was dyed to my "original" Asian color haha. It used to be very dark brown/black. With age it has started to fade away to grey. I dyed it for 4-5 years and I hated the every six weeks redo. So since PANIC-19, I freed myself and I'm back to half brown/half grey. In the video it looks more jet-black than it was because of the color correction I did in the edit.

Just resist the urge to take it all off again when you look like an idiot (in your own mind) and be sure that your barber only cleans up your neck and around your ears.

Also the colors in the video have been graded in a teal-blue setting so what you see is not representative for how it looks in reality.
