I actually completely agree — this is a small speck in the larger context of issues! It’s hard to justify writing so many things these days in the face of everything going on. But I try and write what I can (most of my slamming is directed at men). That said, my hair insecurity runs very deep and I’ve been thinking about this essay for many, many years. I have nothing against women who appreciate Drybar , I get it — it’s my personal nemesis for the very personal reasons I listed. Of course this is NBD in the larger horrifying landscape of issues, does that mean don’t write it? I don’t know, I think about that question a lot. Regardless, I appreciate the comment!
