My hair is finally practically perfect! The pretty peach kept fading so fast, so I put in some magenta dye that made me look like a damn highlighter. After a couple of washes, all but the roots have faded to a pretty perfect shade of pink. It's really hard to find things that look good with this color, though, so I think I'll be wearing more blues and neutrals in the coming weeks!
I was a little nervous to go out in public on the first and brightest day, but even though I've gotten a few stares from old people, almost no one has made any remarks. Other than kids. I walk by families and the children are like "WOAH. PINK HAIR." They can't take it.
If you're curious, what you see here is a mix of Manic Panic's Bubblegum Pink, New Rose, and Hot Hot Pink on hair that was bleached from red and is a light shade of orange, except for the roots area, which is light yellow. I've washed it twice in hot water (in an attempt to make it fade faster lolol).
I locked my keys in my car on Friday. I wish I could say that it wasn't the 7th time in my college career that I'd had to call AAA, but I had to wait around feeling like an idiot again. It was my fault, but that didn't make me want to blame the world any less while I waited for an hour in a grungy gas station while skeezy dudes asked me for lighters and complimented my outfit. Like sir, I'm sure you probably mean well, but I am a girl alone in a sketchy gas station. Can you please keep your compliments to yourself?
Then, this weekend, Travis took me to Ulta and let me pick out a makeup! I got some Urban Decay Heavy Metal Liner <33 and couldn't resist buying a Too Faced copper shadow myself! That more than made up for my own lame forgetfulness, I was like a kid in a candy store!

Your hair really looks rad! Cute dress too! :)
ReplyDeleteThe new hair colour turned out great! Also lovely bag too. :]
ReplyDeleteLove hot pink hair, reminds me of Pink in Lady Marmalade! <3
ReplyDeleteThe pink looks so good on you!! I've been wanting to color my hair a crazy shade lately! Also, what kind of shampoo are you using? Because I'd def invest in some quality shampoo and conditioner (from a salon!) to keep from fading too fast! Also I've read that mixing conditioner in with Manic Panic will lighten it a bit, but I've never used the stuff myself.
ReplyDeleteI feel like this is the color you've been wanting and man, it looks great on you, especially in contrast with the blue ensemble.
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks fantastic, and I looove those little shoes!
