I can't believe it too, Lynds! it seems just some months ago he was in my hands, my little newborn son, and soon he will be 6! I guess you feel the same about your bogatyrs:)
I'm happy to know you and some pages of your life story too, dear!

hair...yes;) I was always in love with black black hair that is so black that even has some blue in its colour. My natural colour is brown, and my Mom never let me make it black. But when I got married, I did everything my Mom forbad me;) black hair, a tattoo and many other things;)
so - yes, it's a hair dye that is called "blue black", it's deep black (like in the 1st photo) , but when there is definite light it has some of blue colour. My Mom still is angry with me about it, but I like this colour very much.
