ps. do you see what I mean about my camera not focusing?! All my pictures are slightly out of focus :(
Don't panic. It's not permanent! I'm not that adventurous. There's no way I would colour my hair without being able to revert to my regular, boring, blonde self within a few washes! But yes, I've attempted pastel pink! And my hair looks horrid and lank in these pictures as it was up all day!
It took two goes using diluted Stargazer baby pink (which I can pick up at a fairly local hippie-esque shop!) mixed with conditioner to get the right potency! (Before this I applied some toner to whiten my hair) I think I was a bit tentative first time round, as last time I tried to go lilac my hair went pretty dark, even with a tablespoon of dye in a ton of conditioner! This was about a year ago. But a couple of weeks later it washed out to a nice granny rinse look, as you can see below - apologies for rubbish picture quality. Thank god for semi-permanent dyes!

To get it this shade it really needs to be bleached and toned, which is petty annoying! I think it'd look pretty cool to have a pink tone over brown hair though if it showed up in sunlight! xx
DeleteI think the pink looks pretty on you!
ReplyDeleteThat looks really pretty!

I have stuck to blonde for so long now - at least already being blonde you can lighten it easily if you want to :) I remember being brunette and dying my hair soooo many times to get it blonde!xx
DeleteI love this! wish i could pull off that hair colour!! xxx
