I'm a senior in high school who has had braces for the past few months. I love them, but my mother isn't as thrilled. I like to experiment with the color of my bands, and I most recently had blue ones put on (not an offensive blue, a sort of teal shade.) The only 'problem' is, I've just been scheduled for college interviews, and I won't be able to get back to the orthodontist before then. My mom thinks that having these blue bands will kill my chances of having a good interview. So, I'm wondering:
A. Do you think having 'colorful' braces will affect my chances of getting into a school? If you have/had braces, do/did people treat you differently because of them, and if so, was the attention negative? Most of my friends love them, but I'm not sure how admissions counselors will feel.
B. Is there any way to fade the color of my bands?
Thanks!
