The story of Medusa and Perseus goes like this: Medusa was one of three sisters, the gorgons, but she was the only mortal one, but they were all beautiful. Medusa was so beautiful that Poseidon was in love with her, but she didn’t care about him. This made Poseidon mad so he turned her and her sisters into monsters with live snakes covering their heads. Medusa kept her beautiful face but everything else was monstrous, whoever dared to look into her face ended up being turned into stone. Perseus comes into play. He was told to bring the head of Medusa back for King Polydectes. He asked Athena and Hermes for help they provided winged sandals to fly him to the end of the world where Medusa lived, a cap that made him invisible, a sword and a mirrored shield. The latter was the most important tool Perseus had, since it allowed him to see a reflection of Medusa’s face and to avoid being turned into stone. With these, he cut her head off and was able to fly back and bring her head back to King Polydectes Later, Perseus used Medusa’s head as a weapon in many occasions until he gave the head to Athena to place it on her shield.
I don't really remember what I was supposed to talk about, maybe something about hair? Anyways, I'll just talk about that. I think hair can speak volumes about a person. The color and style can almost tell you right away what kind of person they are--mostly for girls, sorry guys but your hair is much more general. I guess I like my hair, but most of the time it's a pain to deal with and I'm surprised it's craziness doesn't turn people to stone too.
