Darkwind was born with hair as black as yours. When he was a teenager it started to turn white - completely white, not gray like mine. This happens to all Tayledras by the time they're thirty. [and it's not for genetic reasons, but she's not going to get into Node magic.]
He dyes it a mottled brown, but he's got to keep re-dying it because the color starts to bleach out inside of a month. He wants it to blend with the trunks of trees when he's out in the forest, and when he's there he also wears clothing in mottled brown. The idea is he won't be seen unless he wants to be seen. Secretive people, the Hawkbrothers.
