Rant: I'm trying to color my hair lighter...and it's not working. Now I have a farking stripe at the top. Blush Annoyed


Can you color it a brown, or a dark blonde, then color it lighter?

That works? Embarrassment I'm such a n00b. I just assumed to go lighter you've got to bleach the life outta yer hair. Embarrassment

I've heard that the at-home hair dying companies usually have decent hair hotlines. Have you tried calling them to see what they say? Smilie

And Autumn, is that a genuine smile? Stick Out Tongue

Sigh. Like I posted a few posts back in this thread, I just can't justify a dog right now. I just know I wouldn't be a suitable owner. The folks wouldn't want a big dog inside the tiny house and my cats might not get along w/ a dog... and I just wouldn't give it enough lovin' (of the legal and proper kind, no funny business!).

The pics are huge for me. Especially on my little 13" screen.

The pics make me cringe. Embarrassment I feel so bad for Phantom. Embarrassment
Hmmmm. Well ok...then you come visit me! You can be Phantom's aunt and you can spoiler him Whee Wink

(Sorry about the big pictures)

Yup. Hair coloring and bleaching in particular always worries me.

That's actually what I was trying. I was going for medium brown (I'm wanting dark blonde/light brown) and then I tried blonde...it did not end well, lol.

I just don't wanna bleach my hair if I can help it. I think I'm beyond hotline help...I'll probably have to go to a damn hairdresser. laugh out loud

That smile is SO not genuine. That's a "Here's my farking hair looking like farking shit" smile, lol.

The thing is...I did it once before. It took a loong time..but my hairdresser (who retired) had to go through several phases of lightening it. Which is what I was Trying to do..but I suck, lol.

In the picture of me..you'll notice the eye on the left is green and the eye on the right is bluer. That's because I once got prescription contacts in green and some in clear. I lost one of them and could afford to get new ones at the time...so I'm walking around with two color eyes (It's not too noticable). So my husband makes fun of me and calls me Phantom because of the two color eyes. Annoyed

I NEVER knew that. Embarrassment Every vB forum has slightly different options depending on the site owner/ admins, ya know? Wowza. Worthy Thanks for pointing that out to me.

Well, truth be told, it might be worth it to shell out the $$$ for a one time major color-fixer upper to get it just the way you want, you know? Smilie Especially if you figure how infrequently you go in and pay salon prices. Think of it as a treat. hug

And yeah, I didn't think it was genuine. Stick Out Tongue I wanna see a real smile. Smilie

I think you've seen my pic before...my hair is blond and naturally it's a fairly dark brown. I've never had the color stripped from it totally. And for my touch ups I just use L'Oreal or (due to a friend giving me coupons) Clairol...and I go with a light ash blond to help tone down what natural red is hidden in my hair.

Yeah...I'm not a fan of bleaching either. It's hard because so many of the hair colors say "Your hair will be in better shape after you use this!!" but I really have to wonder about that.
