Confessions Of A Hair Dye Junkie

Sorry I haven't posted in a while! It has been crazy recently. Since I couldn't get my hair blonde I decided I would go colourful once again. I have previously had orange hair and I loved it! I decided to use the same dye I used last time as the colour was so bright and really stood out. It has been just over a year since I last went orange but I couldn't remember how long it lasted or how it made my hair feel. I wish I had remembered. I decided to use Crazy Colour hair dye in Orange. I used this last year and loved it. I have used a purple dye from this brand and hated it so when I used this last year I was surprised with how much I liked it. The colour was bright and bold, it wasn't patchy and the consistency was great. The only thing I remembered from using this dye was that I loved the colour. This time around I didn't like it as much. This is how the colour looked in pictures. The first photo is in natural light and it looks very bright. This picture is ...

Sorry I haven't posted in a couple of weeks. My hair has annoyed me. At the moment I hate how it looks and I have been working hard to get it to a decent colour. Since I haven't posted in a couple of weeks I will be posting twice this week. Today's post will be about how I faded my hair more with Head and Shoulders Shampoo and how what happened to my hair after I bleached it. So the picture on the left is how my hair was in my last post. The next picture is after using it a couple more times. Please excuse the dirty hair, it had been a long day. As you can see it faded even more and worked really well. Although the anti-dandruff shampoo worked well, I still had to bleach my hair so that I could go blonde. The picture on the left is how much my hair had faded before I bleached my hair. It was really faded and so I thought the bleach would work well. The next picture is after I bleached my hair. As you can see I was not happy. It doesn't come across well in the p...

The first thing I tried to fade my hair was anti-dandruff shampoo. I have heard that this works wonders and really fades fashion hair dyes. I only had the cheap one on hand, so did not use Head & Shoulders. I don't want to rush into going blonde, I want to take it slow. Previously I have just bleached my hair and then bleached it again and as you may know that destroys your hair. This is my hair before I used the anti-dandruff shampoo. It was still very bright and very blue. I only have a few weeks to try and fade my hair to a decent colour that will make it easy for me to go blonde. I used a small amount of the shampoo and massaged it into my head. I made sure to scrub it in so I could to try and really get it into my hair. I only left it on for about 20 minutes because my hair started to feel really dry. If I try this again then I might leave it on for a little bit longer. As you may be able to make out, the dye started to run from my hair really quickly. Luckily w...

So all my posts until now have been about hair dye, bleach and the things I use to keep my hair healthy. I am now planning on going blonde and keeping the blonde for a while, probably over Christmas and into the new year. This means that I won't be dying my hair crazy colours and won't have any reviews to put up. I still want to update my blog and keep posting, so I have an idea. I am going to try and remove the blue while keeping the hair damage to a minimum. So I will be trying things like Vitamin C and Shampoo, Baking Soda, Blonde Shampoos, Toner and other methods to remove as much blue as I can. So I thought that for the next few posts I could review how well this goes and which methods I think work more. I will also be posting about the dye I use to go blonde, if I use bleach or Colour B4 then I will review those as well.  If you think that is a good idea then let me know! If you would like me to upload different posts, maybe about University, Life, Make-up, Music or...
