Dying my hair...

For a long time now I have really wanted to dye my hair. In the summer I'm planing do do something very bright. However right at this time I'm still at school and there are some very strict rules about dying hair.
I say strict because even though its an absolute no no, pretty much 65% of the pupils do have dyed hair of some sort.

As the title of my blog suggests I am a ginger, when I was younger I was very bright ginger however now its got a lot more dull. It is still ginger but has a much more brown tone to it.

I didn't want to dye my whole head on account of wanting to stay ginger and I wanted to dip dye it blonde but decided that would be a tad obvious if I walk into school half blonde so I decided to go a much darker slightly red colour. yay

I decided to do a semi permanent dye as it washes out in 28 washes and this will bring me nicely up to the Easter holidays where I thought a change would be nice. so after looking at many a different dyes online. I went to Superdrug and chose 'superdrug crème sensations' in 'Black cherry'  (which I didn't even see online)
Some thing I would mention is that buying hair dyes online is probably not the best option unless you know exactly what you want (e.g. have used that colour before) but I think going to the shop and seeing the colours in person is a good idea. You wouldn't want to be disappointed when it arrived. And you want to get the correct shade you had in mind or even just to have a browse at all the colours.

In the random things it says about the product it says 'conditioning colour with supurb shine and no ammonia' it also says with keratin and how it is super easy to use. I'll get back to you and show you the results. 

QOTD: have you dyed you hair if so what colours? Also have you ever used the superdrug dye?

  1. Very nice tips, Alice! I've seen the result in a more recent post, and what I can say is: you look stunning! You did an amazing job at home dying your hair. Most people I know would need some help from a friend or a professional. Kudos to you for the beautiful waves!
