Did a BB tonight using 12% developer (only one I had at home). I first left coconut oil in for over an hour and I only put like a cup of shampoo in the mixture. Left it on for ~25 minutes.
Before:
SFX Candy Apple Red over CC Sky Blue (so it had a pretty purple to blue gradient) and CC Peacock Blue underneath.
After:
Mint green!
My roots are a horrid orange, tho, as my natural hair is black. I plan to do another BB next week or the week after but I THINK I WANNA KEEP THE MINT GREEN! My goal was to go gray, ha.
Hair is now dry and feels like it was pre-BB π
im loving the mint on you. maybe stay mint until your roots are ready for grey?
^I'm thinking that! I'll need to be extraaaaa careful when bleaching my roots. Might try slathering hair with petroleum jelly to keep it off... I hope that works!
You have the same situation I'm in! My roots are caramel, though, not all that orangey.
I've loved it minty green, but I can't wait to move on.
I'm not sure about how to keep it off the rest of the hair, I've generally only heard you just be real careful.
The colours you had before were lovely, but the mint looks so good on you, it kinda reminds me of a fairy haha :')
Also loving the lipstick!

Lipstick in first photo is Revlon Just Bitten Lip Balm (I THINK haha) in Cherish/Devotion and Nyx RL Strawberry Milk in the second!

Eeeep, worries me a bit haha. I'll be extra careful and probably make the mixture thicker than usual to keep it in place. My roots are really horrid and I'm just glad the weather is cool enough to wear beanies!
Thanks, ladies. I, too, am starting to really really love this color!
