This young man’s best friend is about to get married on Saturday, and he will be the man of honor at the wedding.

But about a week ago, he decided to change his hair color, and it caused some massive drama with his friend.

Apparently, his hair was originally this “gross” and washed-out mint green color. It also had some white streaks, and his roots were showing.

So, since he is a hairdresser, he decided to fix up his hair in anticipation of the big day. Rather than sprucing up the mint green, though, he opted to dye his hair a mix of purple, blue, and pink this time.

And when his friend first found out about the hair color switch, his friend was reportedly excited for him. But then, everything changed, and his friend “flipped her cap.”

According to him, his friend started calling everyone from friends to family and complaining that he decided to change his hair so close to the wedding date.

His friend is also close to his mother, who caught wind of the blow-up. But thankfully, his mother stuck up for his decision and claimed that “it’s just hair.”

Still, his friend kept going on a calling rampage– because she then contacted the other bridesmaids as well as the groom’s grandparents!

“They were all extremely upset and even called the groom, who compared it to wearing white on my friend’s wedding day,” he revealed.

So, in an effort to mediate the situation, he and his friend ultimately decided that everyone in the bridal party would sit down during the ceremony.

That way, no one would get distracted by his new hair, and no attention would be taken off of the bride.

What made him most upset about this situation, though, was that he had helped his friend throughout the entire wedding planning process, as well as the passing of his friend’s mother.

“And she thought I was trying to sabotage her wedding and make it all about me,” he vented.

Honestly, though, he claims that since he is a hairdresser, he already colors his hair too much and would not damage it even more if it were not necessary.

On top of that, his friend was apparently the one who initially told him that he needed to change his hair in the first place– since, apparently, his friend’s family is much more traditional and conservative than his family is.

“And having a gay man be the man of honor is already borderline for her family,” he said.

Anyway, he still tried to get over all of this in hopes of celebrating a happy day with his friend. But, after going to look at veils a few days ago, the topic of his hair color shot up again.

This time, though, it was the groom’s grandmother who walked over to him, messed with his hair, and made a remark asking, “So, what’s going on with this?”

He then tried to graciously explain the hair change to the groom’s grandmother, but she ended up just ignoring him and going to help his friend change.

Then, he even overheard the grandmother making comments such as, “Why did he do it before the wedding? Why couldn’t he have done it after?” and, “Is he still not changing it?”

To be honest, though, he is just sick and tired of feeling totally judged by his friend’s entire family and being framed as the bad guy.

Still, at the same time, he cannot help but wonder if his friend’s family was right and if dying his hair so close to the wedding was a jerky thing to do.

Do you think that overgrown mint green hair is better than purple, pink, and blue hair for wedding photos or not? Can you understand why the bride was upset, or did she overreact? If you were in his shoes, would you have died your hair so close to the wedding?
