Dark mermaid hair

Hi.

Thought I'd post this, my first attempt at more than one colour. You may think I'm a bit wussy and/or very out of style as I've gone for a darker style, instead of pastels.

I'm naturally dark brown, and first dip dyed my hair a few months ago thanks to the great advice, tutes and posts on this site. Going on from that I'd seen the fab multi-coloured blues and greens, and really wanted to try them.

I've dyed the top half directions plum again, and the last 4-5 inches were bleached and I used (all directions) midnight blue, turquoise, cerise, violet and alpine green in various chunks that my hubby thought were very amusing as they resembled cling film sausages...
I know because I didn't get to a particularly pale yellow this will not be the brightest you will see, and that the proximities will make muddiness a problem, but it's making me very happy, and I thought I'd share.

Thanks for indulging me! And my slightly abused in phone photo editing stuff. I love montages (and now I have the song from "Team America" in my head, good thing it's just started on flim4!)

You're both very kind. Thank you

(and it isn't as mermaidy as yours, Naomi!)

May add a better shot later when I can get someone else to hold a camera.
