Really? My hair doesn't seem to have a problem to hold red. It even lasts longer than it should. I think it's because of the brand my mother bought, it's not the best :P Hopefully I'll wash it multiple times today and tomorrow and try again, with a different brand, on Saturday. |

Actually trying to dye hair blue then turning blond is common as well.I have a friend who tried to dye his hair blue, he added the first color thingy and his hair was green then he added the second and it was blond. |

Now, I'm an amateur hairdresser, but I really don't get that :S If you had to bleach your hair to dye a blue over it, then all well and good, because the blue can unstick and cause the hair to show the blonde tone instead. But that's weird. I might look into that, if ever for some reason I'm possessed to go blue... |

Blue doesn't seem to work for anyone here. Last time - well, the only time - I went blue, it didn't work out. Maybe it's because I used a crap brand, but it came out in grey and green. Luckily it was temporary and only took a few washes to get out! (I don't know what possessed me. My hair was a lovely shade of light brown with blonde highlights.)

Eh, my friend Dawn has managed to dye her hair blue many times by this point in time. Not entirely sure how she does it, but she did mention it does wash out quicker than other colours. Me, I'm quite happy with naturally black hair |

Luckily it was temporary and only took a few washes to get out! (I don't know what possessed me. My hair was a lovely shade of light brown with blonde highlights.) Now that's much more logical. Blue dye residue is used in rinses, as well as purple, as a weak concentrate to tip very light blonde or white hair to silver. (And of course, I'd know a few things about that ;D) Depending on what colour you put it over, it could either under-process (blonde) or over-process (brown) to give you that grey colour due to the cold tone of the dye, and likewise, the ash base of the dye would have pulled to give you the green colour. And as forkboy said from his friend, blue indeed comes out very swiftly as the molecules are some of the smallest and weakest in the hair colouring palette. |

The word "queue" is the only word in the English language that is still pronounced the same way when the last four letters are removed |

Today my application got accepted for http://lookbook.nu ^_^ for those unaware or too lazy to click, it's a modern/street and all-round fashion website demonstrating outfits and trends worn by people worldwide. I'll be posting some of my stuff on there when I get my nice camera on wednesday! In other news, bought #2 of silver hair is over, I'm back to white blonde yet again, until the week leading up til halloween most likely. I got a lot of compliments for my hair, but it's too much of an effort to keep :/ |

Too much leather chair is unsightly and greatly increases your risk of leather-smell. |

Ive dyed my hair many different colours, i found that my red faded very quickly. the first few weeks are awesome and are very vibrant.
i suppose it just depends how absorbent your hair is aswell.
my boyfriends sisters hair is very absorbent, she had red spray wash out colour that you use for carnivals and stuff and it permanently dyed her hair pink.
My colour lasts a month max before it goes a wishy washy colour.
I bought a tube of hair dye from my hair dressers and you didnt need alot and it lasted a few weeks. it cost £10 and gave me 3 months worth. you just need someone sensible to put it in for you.

Few WEEKS of vibrancy? You're quite lucky, you must have very well-conditioned hair to hold a red colour that long! Though if it was dyed over light brown, indeed, the colour hold would have been much longer than that of blonde hair. Though you've made a very good decision to buy dye from a hairdressers directly :) You get your moneys worth in the end! Semi-perms are a fickle thing, sometimes they can come out entirely, but red's also a very strong colour, so it's possible it'll leave a very warm and orangey tone, or on the other hand a pinkish tone behind which stains the hair shaft. And having someone sensible fix your hair is but the tip of the iceberg; to correctly take care of hair in dying (and cutting...) you should know exactly what your doing and made sure you have done your research. |

First lookbook post now up! http://lookbook.nu/user/64875-Lewis-MIf you want to see generally how I put things together and what magic comes out of my ungodly and overcluttered wardrobe/drawers/back-of-door-and-chair/bedroom floor, then keep an eye on it or whatnot. I'll probably post about one new look each week, as I have to actually decide what to do and take time to shoot and edit it, and to make it look nice I can't do it every day/other day. First look here: http://lookbook.nu/look/...-t-dance-unless-they-payOh, and not sure if guests can hype, but if you can, please do ^_^ |
