Item no. 1 on my list of “Things I wont ever do on my own again once I become independently wealthy”?
DYING MY OWN HAIR:
Urg.
I recently announced to the world that I was thinking about dying my hair blond. This proclamation elicited a rather lack luster response, (with the outlier reactions ranging from completely agog, to shock and terror.)
Seeing as though I am giant chicken, this morning I completely reneged on this idea, and I re-dyed my hair 1.5 shades away from black.
(Does anyone really know what blackest brown even means?)
So thanks to L’Oreal, I’m back to my raven headed self.
And if I go outside, children will be afraid to touch me.
Ah well, I’m wearing a sundress, and eventually all this will be washed away.
(Especially the hair dye. In fact, I’m counting on it.)
Have a great, great weekend you beauty cats!
Rant and Roll 
Amen, sister.
Right on! We’ll go to the salon together.
I hear VCC’s hair and beauty school has great prices and good results for dying and cutting – try that next time, until you are a rich girl. heehee
That is actually a terrific idea. My hair and my sanity thanks you. As such, you are now in the will!
Sundresses make everything better. And things could be worse, your hair could have turned green :S
Happy Weekend! Gosh, don’t you just LOVE the SUN?!?!
The sun is like a life force! Couldn’t do without it :)
And yes, if my hair had turned green it would have been a much different post!
Oh, I hate when that happens. You know, my friend informed me of eSalon.com — she swears by it now. You can pick your color to match your personal style and though it is about $25 (with s & h), she says it is worth it. I guess I will find out soon enough. :)
Here is how to remove those stains without harsh chemicals: http://www.ehow.com/how_4453959_remove-hair-dye-from-skin.html
Good luck. P.S. I am sure you still look beautiful.
Thank you so much for the two wonderful tips! I can now venture out into public where people can see me :)
Overall, I am really happy with the colour so am not feeling too self-conscious. Have a fab day Kacy!
Good. Congrats, and you, too!
1. That’s a cool print you’re wearing.
2. You were serious about the blond?! I thought you were punking us! ;) I’m sure you’d look super hot as a blond if you ever decide to go for it. Would you keep the same haircut, or do something dramatic with the cut as well? Plantinum blond or more like a honey blond? Haha, too many questions. In the meantime, your long raven tresses are iconic.
3. I hope you’re enjoying the gorgeous sunny day!
Thanks! It’s a new dress I bought from the GAP outlet. Haha, I’m not sure if I was 100% serious, but it’s something that is FOR SURE on my bucket list. I am so so curious to see what I would look like. I think I would go more honey blond that white blond, and do a significant change in cut. I’m going to have to really work up the courage though!! (Maybe I should buy a wig!?)
It was so wonderful seeing you last night. Have a really awesome day and let me know when you are free for board games!
A wig is a good idea. Also, fun to play with.
Although I would never go blonde myself, it’s fun to think about. I think one of these looks would be nice on you:
So nice to see you too. Board games soon! Also, outlets!
i am curious how i look like with a blonde hair, havent tried dying my hair
Let me know if you decide to take the plunge!
Dude, I was considering dying my own hair again since my roots are starting to show. Now I’m kind of terrified.
Don’t be terrified, just do a much better job than my hack job! If you have short hair it is much much easier. Also, it completely dissolves after the first or second wash (hence why I always do this on a weekend!)
Like what went wrong? I’ve always had someone else take care of my hair in the past.
It’s just really hard to get all the areas of your head without getting your scalp/skin too. And the longer it stays on your skin (like, when you’re doing the rest of your head) the harder it stains. It’s annoying as hell!
You’re brave, I don’t have the nerve to full out dye my hair but I think blond would look good on you. Have fun while the sun shines:)
P.S: I think we have almost identical glasses! (mine’s purple though)
Thanks! It’s definitely still on my bucket list. My last pair of glasses were purple, so I highly approve! :)
I think if you add the time you consumed, the effort, the product cost, and your hair cost it would have equaled those 25$ which you could use to dye your hair. Good luck for next time!
I, unfortunately, think your math is correct! Thank you for the well wishes, I’m going to need them ;)
The sundress will totally help! I’m so sorry though, sad day! :(
The sundress did help! And no worries, almost all of the hair dye has left my skin :)
