Hair Color
This is the art version of the paper, I have a chemistry version also, which I will upload when I see fit. Use with pleasure. I did not cite the works on this paper. Earned an A in both Art and Chemistry, but perhaps that is because I actually did it and shocked them into giving me an A.
