New Hairdo
I went in planning on doing light highlights. I’d told my stylist that I wanted to do blue streaks and she had some blue dye and we decided to do that instead. I know if you want a really vibrant color that you need to totally bleach out your hair and wanted to avoid that. She did the blue on my normal hair and colored the rest like I normally do (to hide the gray) and you couldn’t see the blue at all.
Then I was kind of bummed because I wanted some color! I told her that I really didn’t want to strip out my hair today because I’ve heard so many things about how horrible that is for your hair and it took FOREVER to get my hair looking normal after spending a lot of time highlighting it. So she said we could bleach it a little and the blue should grab on but not be too bright. That was okay. I didn’t want it too bright because I was afraid that Sweety was going to shit his pants when he saw it. I wanted subtle blue. This time. Heh.
Instead it came out crayon green. And I’m okay with it. It was really a toss-up between blue or green from the start because I like both colors. When she saw it, she said if I really wanted blue that she’d strip it out today and redo it. I told her no because I really do like the color green.
But does it look like it was caused by being in a swimming pool for too long?
I can’t get a decent photo of this. The first one had no flash on the camera and the second one did.
