Hey lovelies! I bleached my hair from auburn a few weeks back and haven't sat still since then - oops.
I was lavender for a bit on a pale yellow but patchy base due to having a black streak in it and various other bits and bobs.
Base:
The lavender (notice how the previously black streak is just orangey and blurgh)
Faded a bit, daylight
Then I made a right mess of mixing my toner/left it on too long. I mix directions flamingo pink and blues with conditioner to get my toner/lavender and I mucked up. God I hated this colour on me!
That faded to baby pink which was probably someone's perfect colour but not mine.
Next I decided I wanted a light turquoise so I mixed directions turquoise with condition. I left this on about an hour because unlike the other colours, I wanted this quite vivid to begin with, not pastel.
Excuse no makeup/towel! I like that I can post pictures of me look manky on here cos none of you are horrible and you're all just checking out the 'do ;D
After a week using dry shampoo, yuk!
Now I've washed it once and its fading nicely on the parts of my hair that were lightest it looks mucky on the darker parts. I'm going to give them a blast with dilute bleach when I do my roots in a month or two.
'mucky' side:
Strike a (lazy) pose:
This colour is surprisingly easy to pull off! I am really pale with reddish skin tone and look awful blonde, but bright greeny blue actually works out well! If you fancy this colour I'd say go for it as long as you can get a light enough base, it's pretty unforgiving on darker areas and high maintenance if you want to keep it bright.
Now I've found a hair colour that suits how I dress (like a clown/riot girl style I suppose hah) I'm gutted - I have a job interview next week! NO WAY I'm dying it though, pass the wig! π
I think the turquoise suits your perfectly.
Aw thankyou! I was worried it wouldn't go with any of my wardrobe, but seeing as I mostly wear black or white it brightens it up nicely. π
That color looks great on you! I had it a shade of that turquoise at one time and I'm really tempted to go back to it. I got the most compliments when I had it like that, lol. Really suits you.
I love the turquoise on you : 3
