Pink and green. I feel like a colouring noob... (Updated page two with new pic!)

I just can't quite get the colour right at the moment! I don't hate it, but I'm not in love with it.

I gave up on going for orange as my hair was just too stained by blue and the bits I did orange just went neon green after I decoloured. So I decided to go with it. The pink is still slightly too much on the purpley side for me, but maybe that's just how pinkissimo goes? The green is spring green, which I was convinced is darker than this. I can't get the colour right in the photo, so the second one is a badly edited version to try and get closer to the correct colour.

Thanks πŸ˜€

The main thing is, I'm 8 months away from 40, I feel too old for neon πŸ™

Well you certainly don't look it! I think the colours look fab on you and if you like them, stuff everyone else!

I love it, it looks perfect. And too old for neon is impossible! You can never be too old! (And 40 is not old!)

Spring Green is very neon, if you want a bright green which is not as neon maybe try apple green mixed with a tinsy bit of alpine green, it gives a gorgeous deep but bright green. πŸ™‚

Thank everyone πŸ˜€

It's not that I think I'm old at 40. I feel 18. I know I'm really lucky that I have skin that doesn't show ageing too much, my mum has sworn by Clinique for yeeeears and I use nothing (and I mean nothing other than water and sometimes a wipe to get rid of eye make-up... she's a bit put out that my skin looks as good as hers at almost 40 than hers did at that age lol it's gene mother, genes! I guess, despite my general attitude to dress etc, sometimes that age appropriate thing kicks in. Anyone know what I mean?

Sabby, luckily I'm my boss and I'm very generous with allowing me to have any hair colour I want. πŸ˜‰
