A DELUSIONAL Wateford woman is still clinging to her claims of being a
‘strawberry blonde’, some 34 years after being born a ginger.
Natalie Healy has been sporting a long and luscious mane of ginger
hair for the majority of her life, but chooses to self-identify as a
strawberry blonde much to the amusement of members of the local
community.
While Natalie’s parents encouraged her to be proud of her ginger
roots growing up, the 34-year-old engineer would always correct any
compliments she received by adding ‘thanks, but I’m actually a
strawberry blonde’.
Natalie also recently denied claims that she has regularly put subtle
blonde highlights in her hair to boost her claims, even though this is
quite clearly something she has done.
“Honestly, I don’t get the fuss. I’m very clearly a blonde who has
strawberry inflections in my hair, so therefore, I’m a strawberry
blonde,” Natalie told WWN, fooling absolutely no one.
A further blow to Natalie’s follicle delusions came earlier this year
when the UN refused to recognise ‘strawberry blonde’ as an official
hair colour which enjoys ‘protected status’, with the report into the
hair colour concluding ‘come on now, stop wasting everyone’s time, it’s
red or ginger but that’s it’.
“She’s redder than a Cork jersey made entirely of tomato ketchup, but
God love her, she’s still on about strawberry blonde even though that’s
not even a thing,”
vocal hair critic and husband to Natalie, Eoin Healy told WWN.
