American women have colored their hair at home for years. This is not news.

As far as the writer knows only certain people of a certain class he wouldn’t know about the rest of us coloring our own hair. Doing our own nails, and actually giving our kids a home haircut now and then.

“Do I perceive the service that I’m getting as an added pampering, or do I need it?”
Perception IS reality these days; that much is true. I manage a garden center and every trade mag I’ve read in this past year has told me that every living thing in my sales yard this season needs to scream, “BUY ME!” or people won’t.
I believe it.
Sales, however, are up on seeds (14% over last year) and I know veggie plant sales will be through the roof this season.
I’m ready, and I’m making sure my staff are, too.
As for coloring my own hair? I’ve nearly always done it, except in the mid-80’s when I was married to a rather wealthy man who treated me like his pet poodle, LOL!
Hey, GG! How are sales by you so far this season?

Personally, I’m investing in a new hoe, shovel, rake, and lots of seeds....

I have always done my own hair and nails.
We have a rustic sign in our kitchen that says “Simplify.”
We have tried over the last several years to do that and honestly, our lives are better for it.

But it fits the capitalism is dead meme.
At the same time the MSM ignores the government’s role in all this.
Non-news news keeps the meme running.

Hair is hair, does it matter? (Never colored mine, prefer the “distinguished” graying, and fear any chemicals might make what’s left fall out!)

One of the "good" things to come out of this recession is that people are seeing they can do things for themselves. They are learning the difference between "want" and "need". I feel that being self sufficient strengthens people. Pretty soon you'll read about good old fashioned bartering taking place on a big scale.
Now, OTOH, that's bad for the businesses that supplies these goods and services, and that's probably going to affect the economy even more. I believe it will all level out eventually.
To: PleaseNoMore
Good Heavens!
Does this mean that there are more "jobs" that Americans WILL do ?
