With little to no melanin to latch onto all the sprays and dyes don't last long when they do work, or they go odd colours. My sister and myself both have albinism and she tried dye when she was younger. I'm horrible but I almost died laughing when she tried to use brown dye and her hair went almost neon orange.

I'm easily entertained :) Hell, I still giggle when I stand under black light. Clubs were fun. (for the curious the lack of pigment means my hair reflects light to a small degree, so it glows a little under black light, or used to when it was longer anyway).

I think I'm in the same boat as you. I embraced it while my sister tried to cover it up. I guess with the inevitable teasing you either go one way or the other.

Aside from what OP said, stage lights are extremely bright and would be distracting or painful, especially during any prolonged sets. It was probably more comfort than anything else, as they probably played from touch rather than sight anyway.

I always thought if any person could get away with the porn name 'Moby Dick' it would be someone with albinism.
