It's A Hairy Mess (Post for 9/13/12)

On Sunday, September 9th I decided to change my hair color to a "fall" color.  I do this every year, although I usually have it done professionally.   This time I was a little on the poor side so I did it myself.  My hair was light brown with blond highlights and just having spent the previous day in the sun all day it had become lighter.  So when I picked up a box of hair color at Walmart with the intention of coloring my hair a deep dark brown with reddish highlights, I didn't take the lightness of my hair into much consideration.

My hair turned an almost orange.  I was so embarrassed to go to work like that, but as people remind me all the time, it's just hair, you can always change it.  Ok, so I endured a day of work with this god awful hair color.  That night I changed it again, put dark brown on my red/orangish hair hoping for another, better outcome.  I was determined to get rid of the color it was that I left the brown on for 2 hours.  It is better than the red, but still not to my liking. 

I will either redo it this weekend again (I know all this color is not good for my hair in a short period of time) been through this all before.  Thanks for your concern.  If my hair falls out, it's all good, I will wear a hat or something.  Or I will call an expert and spend the money to make my hair look half way decent again.  Katrina get ready for my call!!

Yes, I know it's only hair but geez this is an awful mess!  Trust me on this.  Sure, I have gotten tons of compliments but deep down in the very soul of my being I hate this color! 

True colors shining thru......
