What are words anymore??

I worry ( a lot ) about the state of the English language. I know that slang has been a thing for many years ( hundreds in fact ) and that making up words is nothing new.
*We will not speak of bae*

But i have a serious problem with a word i just discovered - BRONDE!!

What the actual fuck.

This is a product by L'Oreal and it claims you no longer have to settle on being just Brown or just Blonde. Now, you can be Bronde.

THIS IS NOT A NEW COLOUR NOR DOES IT NEED ITS OWN NEW WORD.
This is brown hair with blonde highlights. Something a clever hairdresser thought up maybe 20 years ago. This style was really in in the early 2000s.
I myself had a style like this when i was 15.

The words Brown and Blonde already exist. Highlights are already a thing. Hell, you could have brown lowlights on blonde hair if that was your thing. You do not need to create a word to describe this hair style, it has been around for years.

I used to work in a salon and if i was still there today, i can guarantee I would be smacking bitches who asked for Bronde hair.

I weep for the future of hair and people in general.
