Ariana explains...

“I had to bleach my hair and dye it red every other week for the first four years of playing Cat… as one would assume, that completely destroyed my hair…My real hair is back to brown and I wear extensions but I wear it in a ponytail because my actual air is so broken that it looks absolutely ratchet and absurd when I let it down.”

“So as annoying as it is for y’all to have to look at the same hairstyle all the time, it’s all that works for now (AND I’m comfortable for the first time in years)…So PLEASE gimmie a break about the hair (or just don’t look at me lol). IT’S JUST HAIR AFTER ALL. There are way way way more important things.”
