More surprisingly, she also noticed that suddenly people started reacting and relating to her differently. Did she just lose a superpower, the superpower of blonde hair? In this episode of Metamorphoses, Jess reflects on the politics of blonde hair, the origin and power of this particular asset, and whether it is possible to subvert its meaning.
