Dye Day

[csberry]

The Process
First off, I must give HUGE thanks to bluevinylangel! There is just no way that we could risk having JD and I doing bleaching/coloring since Harper could call upon us at any time. If Blue hadn't come over, I don't know when I would have been able to do this.

Bleaching was lots of fun. I got all sorts of flashbacks to afternoons spent at Lewis's salon on 15th Street in T-town during college - sitting in a seat in the corner while my hair and scalp crackled from extended periods of peroxide on my head. Ah, those platinum blonde days. Anyway, here's me after bleaching.



I really wished that the color of my hair had turned out as colorful as the dye looked.




After 20 minutes, I was unimpressed.



So, we did another application. This time we also pulled out the blow dryer and kept the heat going the full time. It wasn't as blue as I had hoped for, but it was a pretty turquoise and was good enough to satisfy me.

The Results



I'm still debating whether or not I'll be buying more dye and begging Blue for another coloring session. If I'm going to do something, I'm not going to do it half-assed. Turquoise isn't blue. I want blue. :)

Are you referring to the two shots with the lovely blue color in the middle? It's that lovely of a blue because the dye was still coating my hair.
