New hair colour? the start of a journey..

So once again I'm wanting to change my hair colour, not just because of boredom, but because I am fed up of accommodating my life to my hair. How is it that big I hear you say?
Well........

  1. The colour, as much as i love it, is not as vibrant as I'd like
  2. It fades quite easily and goes patchy, with brown, pink and dark purple?!
  3. Every time I wash it so much dye comes out, so evidently I can not wash my hair in a white or porous surfaced shower. So I have to shower then go downstairs to my special metal basin and wash my hair in that to avoid staining stuff.
  4.  My hairdresser and salon get annoyed when they use the dye as it stains the sink and they have to wipe and clean it each time and god forbid they get any one their hands...
  5. When its freshly dyed it transfers onto my skin, clothes and bedding. So I have to buy dark bedding and use old sheets to sleep on when I stay over places or wash my hair
  6. If it gets wet from sweating at the gym or in the rain then the dye runs everywhere!
  7. My clips, bobbles, hair scarfs and hats are colored form the dye

Then in my old post I managed to get in contact with the lovely Holly Hagan from Geordie Shore and asked her about her hair dyes by Manic Panic -

So I bought her colour and did this review on it. 
So after the bad outcome I have finally decided to go back to red and use the manic panic dye in either pillarbox red or wildfire which had a touch of orange in it.

So now I have months of product build up on my hair from the Directions dye colour, so as I avidly avoid bleach, thats out of the question if I want to keep my hair, then the last time I used the colour B4 before I went blonde, it suckeddd! I stunk of rotten eggs for a week and my hair was like straw for ages!
Admittadley it did work! but the issues that come along with it


Naaahhh



So I researched what to do to make it come out more. So far Ive seen bleach, colour remover, lemon juice, cut it all off or dye it black and start again. But what Ive chosen is to use an anti dandruff shampoo and try to go swimming as much as I can as both of these strip the color out of hair. But to keep its health Ive purchased a Morrocain oil mask from Home Bargains for 99p. (and dry shampoo as my ahir gets greasy quick!) 

So I will keep you guys posted on whats happening, so for a while ill have shit hair, so bring on the wigsss!

Another thing im trying to do is vintage hair, as I have what is known as a 'cow lick' at the front of my hair, so its a hell of a pain when I want a fringe Ive decided to just go with it....

So in the end Im hoping to get hair like the gorgeous Ashley Marie Pinup <3
