Hello lovelies!
So I had a bit of a hair disaster last night. I decided to dye my hair a darker brown because the brown my hair was wasnt actually my natural colour and the roots were on full display. phew!

So I dyed it the 'Natural Dark Brown" from Nice & Easy.
I have tried many many brands of home dying hair colours and I quite like this one. Also because it was 2 for €11 in Boots but more on that later.

I was shocked to find that when I rinsed, it was BLACK. Dark dark black. I haven't had black hair since I was about 16, and im naturally reaaaaally pale, so I was not happy. Its actually Jet Black! OMG.
Anyways, I was a bit unhinged as I wanted everything to be perfect for my 21st which is this weekend :)
I woke up this morning and slapped on a bitta tan, and I instantly felt better.
The colour seems to look better with a tan than my pasty skin!
Note to self: Book Spray Tan tomorrow.

Anywho, here is what it looks like. Im not gonna try lighten it, I think I'll just work with it.
Agh! Im still undecided after seeing that pic, ha obv wearing black doesnt help.

Have a good week lovelies! :) x
It looks really shiny and glossy!Is the colour designed to fade a bit? You can get away with some really dramatic lipsticks etc with this hair colour I think x
ReplyDeleteI used the same hair dye before and my hair went black too! It really actually suits you though and I agree with Eemas that you can get away with brighter lipsticks :) x
ReplyDeleteThat is so annoying! The same thing happened to me using a L'oreal one. I've heard washing your hair with anti dandruff shampoo is meant to help get rid of colour. It's worth a shot!
ReplyDelete:)
That ALWAYS happens to me! I think it suits you though, it really brings out the blue in your eyes :)
ReplyDeleteOMG i *HEART* it!! It's gorge! That's the glossy black shade I am trying (and failing!) to achieve!
ReplyDeleteYou look great!:D The hair color brings out the blues in your eyes!:D
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday!:D
