Oh yeah, and I completely forgot to mention...the bottom 12 inches or so of my hair is now a rather kelpish shade of GREEN!

It looks loverly. or, if not loverly, interesting. And interesting is good.

MOOP!

Ah so you found a good green. So sorry I couldn't find anything at Traders for you.

It's a pretty good green. A bit kelpish, but that can't be helped...

w00t for green hair. Wait, was it intentional?

Oh good. I always get scared when friends dye their hair, due largely in part to [livejournal.com profile] belladonnaelf's hair odyssey.

Dare I ask? Or would it terrify me completely.

Audrey, the girl in question, has, or, rather, had thick, curly, long white-blonde hair. Naturally. So, of course, she got her head stuck up her rectum and decided it needed to be black. *insert boggle here*

Now, she first tried using a level-1 dye. You know, the stuff that supposedly washed out in 28 days? Yeah, bullshit. She came to school, and her hair was streaked and spotted, but in no way actually covered, with this deadish-rotten muddy greenish black colour. Like, all of it was tinged green, and there were great big splotches amd patches of dark colour.

Two (I imagine rather hellish) days later, she came to school, and it was all much darker, but still patchy and splotchy, there were still bits that were just tinged a nasty green. She tried color remover, she tried bleaching, she actually went to more than one colorist that wouldn't touch her, it was, I'm sure, awful. And it stayed that way for a couple of months, until finally, she found the mother of a friend of ours that would strip it for her. Except, it never did look right. If you looked close, you could see that most of the splotches were still there, they were just only a shade darker than the rest of her hair.

Audrey is, and I kid you not, the reason Clairol has a help line on their dye boxes. It's been a year and a half, and it's still not totally normal again.

*whistles*

Dayam. Thats...awful. Truly, truly awful.

Wow. You'd think it would grow out after a year and a half!

Wow, if I had white blonde hair I'd never dye it! Hell, my hair is rather dark brown (it's highlighted... PROFESSIONALLY) and I STILL wouldn't mess with color by myself. Perhaps if it was shorter. Like, guy short. Then it grows out easily and can be cut away...

Anyway, Kat sounds satisfied! Thats all that matters... Just. Never dye it blue. My little brother has this weird illusion that his hair should be blue. So we got the highlighting cap, bleached and then blued his hair. It looked pretty cool actually, for like, a week. Then the blue fades... but not all the way. And so he's left with his gorgeous greek boy dark brown hair, dented with streaks of blonde, streaks of blue, and awful streaks of this nasty green. *shudders* It grows out quickly though...

Kelpish green? Ah yes, the ever-popular mermaid look. Have you picked out a nice set of shells to go with that?

[identity profile] kdsorceress.livejournal.com 2005-08-03 01:29 pm (UTC)(link)
No, not yet. I'm still trying to find the perfect size.

Wow, awesome

Dye, or accident?

I'm assuming dye.

[identity profile] kdsorceress.livejournal.com 2005-12-09 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
Except it left. *sniff*

STUPID DYE!

Actually, that might be interesting.

Naw, I need to find a good green. Although I *like* the idea of leaving it as is, which is vaguely foxish.

~Sor

Foxy Foxish is good.

I'd never touch dye to my hair (especially after reading Zaph'Groupie's story up there... yeeche), it may never be quite the same again and I really like the color of it.

[identity profile] kdsorceress.livejournal.com 2006-04-16 02:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Thats a good way to go with it.

See, I've got mom, who's hair has been...many colours. Currently, the stripe is a fading orange.

I've got enough faith in the hairdye industry that, if all else fails, I can just dye it back to natural.

I don't think the hairdye industry can quite copy my hair color.

Green sounds interesting, fer sure.

Oh, and since there is conservation of items left at our place, your hoopy long coat is here. I suspect you won't get it until after you get back from NYC, unless you want to come pick it up.

[identity profile] kdsorceress.livejournal.com 2005-08-03 01:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah-HA! I was looking for that.

We'll get it after New York. Unfortently.

It totally is!!

I'm all, I dunno, Wyo-y or something.

By the way, Aly is having a lot of fun at camp, and gets to be the Beast in their production of Beauty and the Beast. I think you ought to know.
