Feels like home

Hope this is the right place to ask this, apologies if not!
How long would you all recommend leaving between box dyes?
I used a (semi-permanent - L'Oreal Casting Creme in Butterscotch if that helps) box dye tonight and though it worked as expected, the colour is a LOT brighter than I'd hoped.
I also have a box of a darker shade of the same dye (Amber) - which I've used before and liked the colour. Would I be able to use this over the top of my recently dyed hair or it will go a crazy colour?
How long do I need to wait to avoid damaging my hair too much?
I'm naturally blonde so can't imagine any kind of colour stripping will help in this case.
Thanks!

HALP!

I'm NEVER happy with my hair. EVER.

( timeline from the past year )

So, I'm debating... Letting it grow out, or getting it trimmed so its more a-liney. Also, keeping it blonde and going lighter with it, or doing something different. I'm even willing to do craziness! I've been thinking about adding some teal/blue but I'm not 100% sure 'cause I haven't done it since 10th grade, and I'm now 22.

Okay so I've been really thinking about dying my hair but I've never died my hair before in my life haha I don't know if I should do highlights or what.. This is what my hair looks like straight..it's naturally curly/wavy too..

hey there,

i had all over platinum hair and i decided to an add dark-blonde framing my face. i ended with a quite golden-brown and as my bf said i look like a punk. it was a non-permanent dye, which should hold 24 hairwashs. buut i was crying and i thought i'm looking like shit right now and so just at this moment i'm bleaching this shit out.

my question: i think the dark-brown will turn out orange after bleaching - will the rest of the color fade like it should or do i have to lighten it again?

i went from this...

( one more before and two afters. sorry if they're HUGE. )

Okay, so I've tried becoming a redhead through store-bought dyes but of course none of them worked, actually one of them darkened my hair and added a subtle tint of red/purple but that's not what I want. I want an over-all noticeable darkish auburn redhead (not copper-ish), but nothing too bright because I have semi-tan/olive skin. I'm originally a dark brunette, by the way. ( wishful thinking )

Hey I haven't posted on here for years. I had a personal picture day today, I'll share. I change my haircolor a lot but I always seem to go back to this dark brown. I can't tell if it's warm or cool because I mix them.




( SHOW-OFF )

so i kind of took it a little further than i originally intended this morning, but i decided to rinse the left over blue black over my hair while rinsing the black out, so the pourous parts of my blonde would soak up a little of the blue to counter act any orange. typically when i do this, the blue only lasts for a few washes and the blonde shows right through, but it's fun and pretty for the time it lasts.

here!

Can anyone help me out? I am looking for a photo of a girl with a mohawk-type haircut. I wouldn't want to spike or gel the mohawk, I would just want it a bit longer in the middle with not completely shaved sides. Also, I would like the middle to swipe down into bangs with sort of a wave. I am thinking about cutting my hair like this in a few months but I don't know how to explain it very well and I want photos to visualize it more. Thanks in advance!

As you can see, my blonde roots are coming in pretty horribly, while the rest of my hair remains a medium brown (picture taken in harsh sunlight). I've been trying to grow out my hair since August and I don't want to cause a lot of damage, so what can I do to get out the brown? I've used Color Oops twice, so that's out, and I'm guessing that I've got to go the route of bleaching. Has anyone tried or had luck with Wella Wellite cream lightener?



Or is there anything you fellow MRHers suggest? I plan on taking a trip to Sally's later on this evening. Thank you in advance.

I posted yesterday asking what I should do with my hair. This was my hair yesterday:




( THIS IS TODAY. )

I think I'm about the same skin tone as Christina Aquierla,
( ....... )

So for the first time everrrr I will be able to dye my hair an unnatural color! (12 years of catholic school and 6 years of working in fine dinning) Only for about 2 months though, my job is seasonal and we are closing for the winter. I wanna make the most out of it!


yay halloween!





throw me some colors people! im down for anything!

Hey gang

I just had a general question.

Do any of you use Dr. Bronner's magic castille soaps for your hair?

I'm just interested to see if any of you do and what your experiences are with it.

I tried it once but it made my hair feel like I washed it with bar soap.

I just recently posted about my damage hair, so I'm not looking to go use it again, but just wondered about the rest of ya.

So this is my hair now

[IMG]http://i48.tinypic.com/4sgwmq.jpg[/IMG]

its naturally that wavy, and currently its dyed a light brown with a panel of blonde in the middle. its naturally a dark brown.

I was thinking of doing a 20's look similar to this

http://cdn.sheknows.com/celebsalon/2009/04/drew-barrymore-retro-hairstyle-09.jpg

just dying it back to a dark brown, not blonde.

i was wondering if you guy think that this short of a cut would look right with my face, I don't have a very strong jaw but I really want a similar cut.

Suggestions?

hey madradhair, this time this post is not for me!

I have a friend who wants something a little different than what she normally gets.

( pictures under here )

picked up some teal today just to play around before i really change it up.

i like the color a lot, so when i need to touch up my new growth in the next few weeks, i'm going to brighten all of my blonde, darken the dark around my face to a cool dark brown (and do less of it) and do maybe just a bit more teal.

i really am not a fan of the teal next to the dark reddish blonde, but that will be fixed soon.

here's a preview!

First, Has anyone ever used a banana mask for their hair? what were your results?

Second, my hair was bright red, it's faded a considerable amount, I'm thinking about just letting it fade out into the natural red color and then dying it a dark blonde.

Third, does anyone have any tips for getting short hair to look GOOD curly/wavy. I have an and my natural hair is really curly, but due to chemical damage and it being short, it's not completely curly anymore. I was thinking about investing in the 3 barrel waver iron but I'm not sure how retarded it may actually look.


Thank you much!
