Going Gray as a Senior (in College) with Abigail Jensen
<p>After finding out the guy she was dating in college hooked up with her sorority sister, Sex Educator and Host of Rat Girls Podcast Abigail Jensen wanted to get her hair dyed with purple tips à la Kylie Jenner's 2014 green hair look. Unfortunately, the hairstylist said this would be a challenge for her and she was correct because she dyed it half gray. For the 2025 season finale of Banging It Out, Elke and Abigail discuss Abigail's plight of going gray as a senior (in college), and how it launched her full-force into throwing caution to the wind, one nipple piercing at a time.</p><p>Subscribe for more hair-larious tales!</p><p><br></p><p>ABOUT ABIGAIL</p><p>Abigail Jensen is the host of Rat Girls Podcast and a Sex Educator who can be found sharing tips and tricks on her Instagram @vibeslut</p><p><br></p><p>ABOUT BANGING IT OUT WITH ELKE THOMS</p><p>One morning you woke up, shaved your head or dyed your hair pink.
