No Response From American Apparel I guess that's the typical response isn't it? How sad...

An Email I Sent To American Apparel - Follow to see if I get a reply - Dearest American Apparel I'm Kraig, a nineteen year old student from sunny (joke) Dundee, Scotland; and I have a question that has been bothering me for the best part of my style conscious #life. What clothes do blond people wear? The question sounds absurd, naive even. After all, fashion and civilisation has existed for centuries - no, millennia - without having been set back by this question. But I, at least, think it has some validity. You see, I used the word 'blond' - one of the very few masculine specific terms that exist in the English language. Thanks to shampoo adverts and women's magazines we are all familiar with what a blonde is and often use the term incorrectly as a blanket word for both genders. i've gone my entire #life as an apparently "gifted" blond guy, a supposed rare delicacy of the university dating scene. But I'm a bit too nerdy to end up on the cover of teen choice, and not really athletic enough to end up on any sports team. "Is it natural?" is a question I get a lot. "Yes... It is..." I respond sheepishly. If people were paying attention, they'd notice I also had blond eyebrows and, almost as a stamp of authenticity, eyelashes too... So yeah - supposedly genetically blessed strawberry blond. But I am hindered by a curse. I don't know what to were... It's a serious problem for us blond guys. We're brought up with no reference material whatsoever. When we go to Google, our search requests are misunderstood. When we turn to the blogosphere, we're assigned appropriate colour palettes, and dress styles that match our non-existent bras... A couple of months ago I decided to turn to the world of mens magazines on both poles of the sexuality scale. One end refused to acknowledge that people with blond hair actually existed, after all, everyone is either black, brown or bald - right? The other tribe was more forgiving, but instead refused the existence that blond males even had to wear clothes... So I'm hoping I can tie a knot in this particuarly lengthy quest that is my hair colour by asking the cloths makers as directly as possible. How do blond people choose what to wear in a world of "The Three Bs" - and will there ever be a consideration to include a fourth amongst their ranks?

Shopping For Blonds Being of blond hair colour and of male gender can be a difficult combination sometimes. I only recently discovered that "Blond" is one of very few words in the English language that has both a masculine and a feminine spelling - you'll notice "Blonde" in the women's shampoo isle. For years I had thought there had only been the feminine spelling, and leaving out the e might have been some sort of Americanism or something, but no! Back to why it's so difficult being blond and male... Look at any fashion magazine or go on any popular online clothes retailer and you'll never see and bright blond male model wearing any of the clothes. Any "blond" you do see is has had either highlights or a rather unnaturally pale hair dye job, and massive rolling quiffs that look like something from a 70s diner in Miami. The typical man cannot achieve such things, and nor are they interested. They are happy wearing "normal" clothes, but blonds are suck wondering what "normal" looks like. After all, all the pictures in the clothes shops are of gruffier, and more importantly DARKER haired models. This change in palette, leaves me feeling insecure about anything I think about putting on, confining me into what feels like a "dark blue period" spanning my teens and now threatening my early twenties.
