Hair Update: Being Blonde

So when i decided to go blonde in December i knew it would be hard and it has been pretty challenging. My hair is so weak and snaps so easily and as you can tell from the pictures its gone a lot shorter. BUT I am loving it I feel so different being Blonde. It doesn't change the way people treat you in my opinion. Well, not in a bad way. I always have a good experience being Blonde. It's just draining on the bank balance and the scalp.

(With extensions)

It was good being this blonde but everytime i had my roots done my hair seemed to get even more multicoloured and looked uneven and started to look yellow on the ends and white on the roots, not a good look! So i decided to get a box hair dye from Tesco and go a little darker blonde....and i hated it at first but now i like it and it seems more natural. Im going to let my roots grow and possibly do a sort of ombre.

Above: Before i dyed it. Looks horrid being so multi-tonal.

I used this dye on dry hair.

Looks nice right? Below: Is in a different light but same day.

Above: Today, without extensions in. Also day old hair so not as fluffy.

Also i'm loving my bareminerals tester!! My skin looks really clear!

Jeez bloggers

Haha, i have seen so many *new* blog post's this week all saying the same thing....it's like Gimmie Brow all over again.

If you follow any UK bloggers you will notice they all seemed to review Benefit's Gimmie Brow about two weeks ago. Thats because Benefit sent it to them...and now over the past 2 days all i can see are 'road trips!' thanks to Citreon, lending them cars to drive. Gah!

So boring seeing the same things repeated.

I need some new blogs!

PaleJay got a bit of colour! - Loreal Feria Pastel Pink Hair Dye Review....

I have decided to do a review. I haven't really done one of these before so please bear with me :)

Recently I have gone back to blonde, i go through phases of tumblr'ing blonde hair and aching to get mine the same. It never happens but i give it a good try. Whilst on tumblr I came across a pastel pink haired girl n thought 'wow' that looks great!
It's also trending at the moment (Fearne Cotton!) which in a way i hate, because everyone thinks you've done it to be cool. Oh well.

With blonde hair i always look washed out, because i am so pale. I also have pink undertones in my skin so it clashes with the blonde so I think the pink will really work well with my skin tone. 

I searched the net for some reviews from other bloggers and was determined to try Bleach London but when I went shopping today they didn't have it in Boots! Argh. So I picked up one bottle of L'Oreal Feria Pastel Toning Conditioner S01 Pastel Pink Panther. 

There was only one bottle left so i had to just get that but i normally would have picked two up. Luckily one bottle was enough, in my opinion. I had medium length hair with isn't thick but also isnt very fine its kinda normal.

Here is a before picture:

As you can see its more of a yellow blonde than the recommended White blonde that you should have when applying this kind of dye, but I was already preparing myself for a peachy pink colour anyway. 

I smothered the dye on my towel dried hair and left it for 25 mins (its recommended 5 mins for newly bleach hair or 15 mins for hair thats been bleach 2 week ago or more)

Here is how it turned out:

Looks different shades in different light, i wonder what the staying power will be!

What do you think? 

Do you like odd colours for your hair?
