Hair Dye-ary . Yellow Green

As promised I’m keeping my hair colors alive because why not. 

After a week with Red and Blue faded well, the red did but not the blue and I really like to keep it because there’s something that the blue brought to me. I don’t know what exactly but I love seeing it but I have to retouch since most of my hair aren’t dyed and it’s irritating me.

Steal My Sunshine (Yellow) by GDY is the next in line and I wonder if it will make a huge effect on the faded red but as to hair dye time, red is almost gone. 

I’m really not good with color theory but I remember that if you mix blue and yellow, you will get green. One problem that I encounter with 2 shades on hair it can be mixed up. I experienced this before that’s why I don’t usually do 2-tone or like rainbow hair because it may look bad. 

Blue Ruin by GDY as well is very well-known for it staying forever and the name really fits perfectly because it will ruin you. Haha It will just be there forever that you don’t want to do blue ever again. Haha 

So color theory my blue tips will be green and even with hesitation that the yellow will be ruined by the blue, I still did it. The result, I love it and I question myself why did it took me so long to do this. Well, I did it before but yellow and green together on the same day of dye and wash just really mixed and I didn’t get the result that I wanted. 

Hayley and even Charlavail once had yellow and green. 

I’ve been wanting to do this during UAAP but never got the chance and now that I was able to finally do it, there’s no UAAP yet. Sad. 

This is one of my favorite now and I can think of so many ways to do it again with different style , I can’t wait!  

 

Took me so long to have a picture that will really give justice to the actual result but I think it is very impossible. I can’t explain how Steal My Sunshine looks in real life.

Top photo is with natural light and it really doesn’t do justice on how pretty SMS is. 

Bottom picture is me trying to give justice on what I really see in real life. Haha 

     

 

Hair Dye-ary . Red and Blue

Ha. Took me almost a year to do some hair dye-ary post again but here we are. Lol

A little update from a year ago which was after that post, I waited for it to fade then I paused for a moment just because I was able to do my lasik! I was able to dye my hair again the day before Christmas of 2020 and I went with Kowabunga by GDY. That stayed vibrant until February and faded green until April and then I dye with Steal My Sunshine by April which lasted for less than a month. 

I stopped after that and I was just “blonde” again also known as bleached hair. Just plain until I dyed last October 10, 2021. 

It took me a while again because, I started working out daily which I’m not sure if I can accept that it will fade quick with how I take a bath everyday which means shampoo and conditioner everyday. I know that I shouldn’t use shampoo everyday but my scalp can’t take that and I’m not comfortable by doing it like that. 

I waited for my hair to grow so I can retouch the roots and then started to dye again. Unfortunately, I got so busy with reality that I don’t like much attention if I go out doing errands so I postponed it. 

Then it just happened, decided to clean up my stash of hair dye, empty the jar that contains few colors and here we are. I actually started the other week with a few yellow and platinum but there’s no thrill in there apparently. Haha  

Filing of candidacy for government office was over and since colors are once again big deal to who your bet is, kindly ignore the color of my hair. Lol 

I’m once again experimenting on these colors that I have and damn, I miss this. 

I was blonde for so long and that empty slate needs some color now and there is really something with colors. I love it. 

I’m okay now if it fade quickly or not as long as I can use these hair dye that I bought the past month even though that most of my stash will be ending with yellow, green and blue. 

 

I almost forgot how people react seeing my hair with crazy colors and now I’m just smiling when they liked it under my mask. 

Beside from my tattoos, my hair is also an identity of mine even with mask and face shield. Good thing that I somehow established that pre-pandemic which makes people recognize me these days. 

Keeping my blonde / bleached hair days means I can dye my hair anytime so please, don’t be shocked. Lol I just have some reasons why I keep on delaying it but maybe right now as of typing this, I will try to keep dyeing it until I will be sick with blue since Blue Ruin will never leave for sure. Haha 

I remember that one of my reason beside from working out was the vaccine. I don’t know if it will affect that but my arms was so heavy for weeks after my first dose and now that I’m fully vaccinated and my arms are okay now so I did it, finally. 

There are a lot of things why I delayed the hair dye come back and I’m writing it down right now so by the time I question myself again why it took me so long, I can be reminded. 

For now, it was a left over Rock Lobster and Blue Ruin by GDY. 

Hair Dye-ary . 8th Year

For the past years, I haven’t really update my hair dye-ary link. I just get used to having hair dye and a continuous post about it will be boring but one thing I’m sure of, I came a long way back from when I started bleaching my hair in 2012. 

I forgot what made me decide to do hair dye but for sure it was boredom. Lol

I checked and my last post about hair dye was in 2017. That was 3 years ago and I lost track on how many changes happened during that 3 years but I got pictures somewhere on the hard drive and on my Tumblr. 

Why am I writing again about this after 3 years with being consistent on hair dye because this year it’s a little bit of a big deal. 

For the past years, an event or going somewhere to travel or even just the UAAP season are sign to dye or to change color but this year was pretty much what we all didn’t expect. 

The last dye that I did I think was December 2019, I badly wanted to do red so I did it with GDY’s Rock Lobster. Then I just let it fade then right before quarantine I was still able to bleach my roots. That’s it the next bleaching happened last month (September 2020) and I never had the courage to dye my hair crazy colors because everything is just too much at the moment. 

I just give myself a trim which was very useful during lockdown that I do my haircut for years now. Oh and I finally decided to do an undercut since June 2020 and my mom is maintaining the trims when I feel that it’s already long or when it is already on it’s awkward stage. I wish I did it a long time ago!

Back to the dye and my reasons, quarantine went fine I guess but when it was already ber-months and we’re still like this, I know that I don’t have to wait for some major event just to go back with dyeing. Time and day are still moving so fast that the pandemic can’t even take them down. Same with the other things that are cancelled, I'm slowly trying to plan things little by little just because we will never know. 

Why wait for some major event in a pandemic world might as well do it now. 

October 31, 2012 started it all and it’s been 8 years now and as a preparation to my 8th year anniversary, I decided that I should just do it even without events or travel. 

Bleached my hair last month then ordered some hair dye since I realized I don’t have much dye anymore and I really wanted to do green since I miss it already as much as I miss the UAAP season. I’m doing green before end of the month and maybe go with red again for December. 

When I decided that I should go back with dyeing, I honestly realized that I’m somehow incomplete for the past months of not doing it. Maybe it will brighten my vibe as well. 

This is taking a little much preparation since I already started with my leftovers, a light pink and yellow then a little bit of hair care when it fades then it’s green time. I can’t wait. 

I’m also going to try a new brand called iroiro. I’ve been using Manic Panic for years and was able to try Arctic Fox as well. I’m thinking of buying from GDY but international orders are a little bit of a risk as of the moment but I found a Kowabunga on Rainbow Head that is on hand and on sale. Surprisingly it was the first formula of Kowabunga which is no big deal to me since I still have the first formula of Riot!, Rock Lobster and Steal my Sunshine. I was somehow preserving them but I’m going to use them after going green. Let’s do this. 

And I lost count on how many times I already did bleach my hair and last weekend was the last for sure. 

Thank you, Dove.

I’ve been praised, admired, and bashed with my hair and seeing this TVC on national television, I’m so thankful. 

Been dyeing my hair since late 2012 and never been on my full natural hair ever since. Tried different colors and for people who are not used to see my extreme hair change, they questioned my decision. 

Being a music fan particularly Paramore, all around the world, its okay, its normal but for people who were living under a rock most of their lives, its a crazy, it’s crap. 

I shifted every reason on why I dye my hair ever since that now its just a normal thing to me. 

People say a lot of things about changing my look (the tattoos are different story but yeah. 

It’s my hair, my say. :)

Totally not sponsored. 

I just appreciate this big time. 

Hair Dye-ary . GOOD DYE YOUNG

Omg. Haha. How to start this. 

So, GDY started last year and I was planning to purchase it asap but upon check out, my country wasn't on the list. 

I inquiry on their customer service about it but they said that they will add it up soon since it was just first time and I totally understand it.

Few months later, Philippines was added to the list but I wasn't able to prioritize it since my Romblon trip was up for the next month, UAAP season by September and the SG-KL trip on December and some impulsive buy in between. 

After all the December festivities, I finally decided to try it. 

Merch are added in the store too like shirts, cap, enamel pin, shower cap, pillow case, towel and other accessories. 

I only eye some merch, specifically the dad cap and the enamel pin since I was really planning to get all the hair dye. 

The down side, there is no other option for the shipping and it was costly though it arrived fast. I ordered it January 17 and it arrived by 2nd of February. 

It's so good that I can stare at it all day. So in love with this and finally I was able to have these. 

To be honest, I love the packaging but I don't like the tube because you will not able to squeeze everything out unless you will cut the top of it and I don't want to cut it. Haha. I just transferred the Ex-Girl to one of my empty Manic Panic. 

Little problem was, despite of I don't know what to use first my hair is not cooperating. My hair is still short and as I'm afraid to over bleached it, I eventually wash it already before it even turned white. It still the usual orangey color so when I tried to use the few Manic Panic Cleo Rose mixed with Cotton Candy Pink, it didn't turned pink. All I thought was because it was more light a week later, I was excited to use the Ex-Girl since it's more pigmented but still no effect. I decided to use the Enchanted Forest instead even it's darker and it stained too much. 

Too sad that I might need to outgrown my hair again before I can use GDY but that's okay I still got a lot of time to use it I just need to wait. Will do an update once I did. 

Doing my own hair ever since is no joke and if I start to use GDY, I want it to be perfect. So using Manic Panic in between is not bad since I can get it locally.

DYE HAPPY. 

Hair Dye-ary . Haircut

Mid-October when I started to use Enchanted Forest and I experienced for the first time that it stained for days on my neck and when I sweat it also stained on my shirt. It was frustrating to remove it so when I retouched 3 or 4 weeks later, I mixed it with a sunflower oil and it still stained. One more thing that I don't like with Enchanted Forest is that it's too dark that I realized that Venus Envy was really my type of green. There's one thing I like on Enchanted Forest and that it take too long to fade. 

I decided that once UAAP is over for us, I will have a haircut because I'm a bit sick with green, some parts are already fading and it seems that everyone is doing dip-dye with green. So I want to change and ever since I love to try orange so I decided to have orange after the green and orange for the upcoming holiday season. 

Of course before retouching my hair, haircut is a must. Last Friday, I had a time to have a haircut rather than on the upcoming Monday. The thing is I want all to cut all the green part so it means hello, short hair! I really loved the haircut I had in April that I'm pushing this short hair and one more reason is that I want to have a new look for the holiday and for the upcoming adventure. 

It's hard to travel having long hair and I'll admit it was refreshing when most of it was chopped. I'm not depressed because we wasn't able to get to the Finals or what I just want a new look for this month and my hair isn't that healthy anymore. 

The problem was, the bleaching kit and my new hair dye didn't arrived on Friday and I was already uncomfortable not having a color in my hair. If my package will not arrive on Saturday it will be for sure on Monday and I don't know how will I survive few days without hair color. Originally I planned to clean on Saturday but as sick as I am, I decided to pass and just rest. Of course, I can't pass on bleaching my hair since I don't know how to survive without color. 

During haircut, I like the one who did my haircut. She was hesitant when I said to cut some more. Maybe she was afraid that I will backfire at her when it will be too short. She even mentioned that I should just have trim of I want to remove the other green on the tip. I was laughing inside because obviously she's one of the people who doesn't have any idea on what I can do to my hair. When it comes to my hair and some stuff, I want to do it DIY style. I already cut my hair one time, I do bleach and dye my hair with no assistance. I take risk with my own hair and as long as I will not touch the roots, I don't think I will have any problem. 

I even asked if they do bleaching (of course they do. Duh). Haha. I asked how much my hair will cost and she said probably around 1,800PHP ($40). I will not pay for such and my 2 jar of hair dye and bleaching kit cost the same! 

I take time on sectioning my hair this time because I don't really have a plan for the bleach was so epic fail maybe because I wasn't able to apply it ASAP. So frustrating good thing the other side wasn't bleached so I changed plans. 

I'm also being too careful not to burn my hair like the last time that's why I took my time and it end up not being bleached just like the usual golden brown and now it look like highlights. 

I somehow like how it end up but at some point I also want to achieve the same bleached hair that I got last April but I don't want to overcook it. 

Since it's not overcooked I think it will be easy to maintain since I can't bring a blow dryer and a hair iron for our adventure. It will be all good and I can't wait but first, let me take some time to medicate myself. Huhu. I'm having cough and tonsillitis. I want to be better before leaving. :(

Hair Dye-ary . Red

My neon didn't last for more than a week and I'm so sad about it. 

Dewey's hair didn't fade so fast but he wants to retouch it since it still one month of vacation. They went to the local store (Hortaleza) to look for some bleach and they also bought a hair dye. 

I'm not familiar with the brands in Hortaleza but one thing is for sure it's way different from Manic Panic and it's not Vegan and not even a cruelty-free products.

That night I retouched Dewey's hair and since I mixed a lot than what can his hair can accommodate, I decided to put some on my hair.

Unfortunately, I realized that I didn't took any picture after that night. One thing is for sure happened, it bleed a lot every wash so it also didn't last for so long that it was already faded in a week. The funny thing about it was everyday, people think that I do retouch it but the reality is that it was just fading. Now my hair is just like a light pink but most of the time, I don't know what color this is. Haha. 

A little update, I still haven't purchased Good Dye Young so probably I'll just pass for now and will stick for some Manic Panic until I know someone who will be selling GDY locally (hopefully, Funkystreaks will have soon). I do know another alternative but I'm broke and it's no-brainer to retouch soon since there are few swimming plans for the rest of May. Though I will update you if I change my mind getting it. 

But I'm considering to retouch my hair with this kind of red since it's cheap and to be honest I wanted to try the red ever since. 

Don't ever related the color of my hair to anything most especially to the political sh*ts. 

Hair Dye-ary . Neon

Wow. I think it has been a year since my last Hair Dye-ary post ... I will not be lazy this year to update since I'm so done with dip dye.

I retouched my dip dye first week of February

For the last 3 1/2 years, my hair was never once again stayed black. It's like once you get color you will never go black again.

3 1/2 years, 3 years with dip dye that some called it ombre while the 1/2 year was with some side streaks. I'm always afraid to touch my roots because my hair might hate me but it might happen this year. Haha. And everyone is doing ombre/dip dye and I'm just done with it.

I let my hair grow even the faded color is not pleasing anymore I want it all gone when I had a haircut.

Looking at some of my pics, I'm sick on how my colors are not visible unless you will get a nice photo that sometimes it's hard because it's all at the end. Prior to haircut day, I still don't know what portion of my head to dye. I planned to have a short hair this time but not short enough to be a boy-cut.

I'm on a tight budget lately and as I'm waiting for Good Dye Young (it doesn't ship in the Philippines yet), I decided to just order bleaching kit from Funkystreak and while waiting for GDY, I think it was also the time to empty the jar that's been with me for the last 2 years which was Electric Banana and Electric Lizard.

Last year was all about green (Venus Envy) because of UAAP and so fortunate that we won the championship but unfortunately we weren't there to cheer live. There was still some Venus Envy left that I used on my nephew and now that's just another empty jar.

I emptied my jar of Venus Envy to Dewey 

Also this time, I used more bleach on him that's why his hair is lighter than the usual result that I get (somehow golden). I still don't want to use one kit in one bleaching session because I'm scared to overcooked it but I'm learning.

This portion that I did was very last minute decision. I had an almost plain black hair for a few hours after haircut but I feel incomplete that's why I realized that I didn't took any picture with it. As I was staring at the mirror, I remember the way that I cut my hair last year when you need to tie all of your hair in front of your forehead so you will get instant layers. That's what I did and I honestly don't have any idea on how it will look like after.

I used more bleach than usual and voila my outside portion now is lighter than before. My hair was lighter than golden and I was so close on over cooking it (glad it didn't happen). Haha I never thought that it will be a huge portion and the only color that can fill my bleached hair is my Electric Lizard.

I don't use it very often before because usually when I get golden hair Electric Lizard and Banana wasn't that visible but this time it was a success.

This is the closest thing that I can do on dyeing the outer/upper area of my head and I'm loving ever moment of it.

No one saw my hair until the next day and I know it will catch attention and I was smiling huge when I went downstairs because my mom might freak out but I'm so surprised that she wasn't. Haha

It was so new to me and of course, I get stares that sometimes I can't help but smile and laugh a little. Haha. People around shouldn't be so surprised if I did a lot more portion next time and of course with different bright color I hate dark colors it's not visible at night.

It faded so fast that my neon hair just lasted for a week :(

Hair Dye-ary . Cut and Color

I'm really planning to have a hair cut couple of weeks ago and the day I'm all set to go to a parlor, every parlor was already closed because it was graduation season. Maybe it was the right sign because I don't really know what hair cut I wanted to get if they asked me. Then I took it as a sign that I should really cut my own hair just like I did before. Instead of paying a hair dresser, I just bought an ordinary scissor and search online video on how to cut my own hair with layers. 

At first, I don't understand how it will have a layer but then I get it. All of the videos that I watched just do the same thing but no one actually explained more details and I just need to discover it by myself. I did what was said on the videos and I was like "screw it, it's just a hair and it will grow back" if I do something bad but I didn't, though I cut the bangs short enough because I secure my pony tail near my scalp. Next time I'll not include my upper hairline so it will not be too short and I'm planning on buying a scissor for the hair so I will not be using an ordinary scissor but it was okay to use as long as it can cut. Haha

Also, I made sure that I already have a new jars of Manic Panic on my hands before a hair cut. It was always hard to choose from different colors on what to try next but since the two jars that was left in me was both neon (Electric Banana and Electric Lizard) I decided to get something dark but noticeable and a bit way far from the range of orange, brown and yellow since my hair is on that range when its faded. Sadly, both neon are not good together. Since 2013, I really wanted to try a good green but it wasn't available by then so I end up with Electric Lizard but it's not what it was if my hair just end up on brownish after bleach. I'm always afraid on bleaching part because I don't want to burn my hair. :/ So, I ordered Venus Envy and Cleo Rose because I fell in love with pink since the Hot-Hot-Pink-jar-days which was 2012. 

Since, my hair is still a faded orangey I can't bleach it again so I just retouched it with my new purchase.

the result of doing my own haircut

I love the combination and it was the perfect green! YAY! I'm happy with it and I can't wait to bleach again soon. 

 Since it's summer here, almost everyone is joining the hair-dye-bandwagon and its always good to go with a different color than the usual. Been doing that since 2012. 

For the record, since I started dyeing my hair it was never all black again and I guess it will never go back to all-black again. 

Thank you, Jane of funkystreaks.com . :)

Hair Dye-ary . Zombie Style

this post was scheduled to be published before we left for Palawan but I wasn't able to fix it

I'm so bored with my hair for a while now and I don't know what to do with it anymore. I really want to shave a part of it but maybe its not yet the perfect time. 

Its been a year of my side streaks and I'm totally sick of it and I really want to go back to dip-dye. 

Speaking of basketball season, FEU played DLSU for the second round last August 27 and since it was a weekday, Gem and I can't put it on our schedule so we decided not to watch live. 

I make a dare for my self during the first round that I will dye my hair if we beat ADMU but of course we didn't and since its already last week of August, I know that I should make it happen before its too late for basketball season and to the upcoming trip this month. 

I didn't tell it to anybody just because and we won! I didn't expect anything for that game since I saw the previous games of DLSU and even there are wounded players, they still played well but talking about playing good, they did one major mistake during the last play. Miscommunication on the DLSU players gave us the opportunity to win and be on the top spot of the standings. Yes, we made it to the final four because we already have 9 wins. 

That's why its so big for us, for me because it will make a huge difference in the near future. Hehe. 

Back to my hair, there's still this small portion of my side streaks that's still there and I want to chop it because if it will be bleached again, it will be forever frizzy and that's not good. I chopped it and now my hair was messed up. Hahaha. I forgot that it will be different to the other side and I remember when Charlavail told Hayley to chop her hair,so I accepted it no matter what other people will say and its the hair, it will grow again. Now I know the feeling of chopping your own hair Charlavail style. (people dont actually see the difference in my hair they thought it was done in a salon when in reality its just in my bathroom) 

While I was finished cutting the last part of my side streaks, I realized that its just so different have just all black in my head and I'm not used to it anymore and somehow I hate it. Its just so dull, it seems like its so boring and there's no life in it. It will be 2 years by November that I never had just plain black hair and it was amazing. Though I'm still not up to dye my whole head just because I don't want to touch the roots.

Since I need to bleach my hair again, I pig tailed it then I started to bleach (the dirtiest part of dyeing). Good thing there was an extra bleaching kit because the other one was maybe expired because it didn't work to the right side so both side aren't equal. But who cares! Hahaha

I was trying to make the inner part to be green while the outer will be yellow but I guess, I can't achieve whatever I want to do because both of my yellow and green are light colors (Electric Banana and Electric Lizard). I'm still looking forward to have the somehow dark green, I think it was Green Envy but for now when this fades, I'll use a drug store hair dye a Bubble Hair Dye in orange and the Syoss in blonde. Exciting!

Ohhhh BER months!!!!! :))))

Hair Dye-ary . Violet Pink

Long time no re-touch.

So good to dye my hair again but I'm getting sick of this hair style I can't wait for my hair to grow more so I can do a dip dye again. But once this current hair dye fades and if I didn't get lazy to fix it then new hair coming soon. Wait for it. :D

I ordered a Manic Panic again because my cousin just graduated from high school and ever since last year she wants a purple hair.

Unfortunately, her hair hated the bleaching part so her hair was a total mess. We both have faults but she is enjoying it right now. It was more okay than the day after. 

I want to get the Green Envy but it wasn't available and the only green shade that is available is Electric Lizard. I'm not gonna lie ever since last year I really want to try it. And my friend, Marielle wanted me to do a green and yellow hair as a sign for FEU. Hahaha I think I will this year. :D

I empty the jar of my 'Hot Hot Pink' on one side then ask for a bit of Ultra Violet. So my hair is now violet-pink (but this is a super late post now so my hair faded already). I love how I can apply two different colors on my hair. I can't believe that I'm sick of the result of Hot Hot Pink and as being honest, I don't like this kind of purple because its dark. I think I mentioned before that I don't like dark hair because its not visible at night. On the other side,  I'm a bit happy that I'm moving on with my Electric Banana and Lizard. :D

I'm looking forward for what will happen next I'm just waiting for my hair to get longer. Hopefully, I can have a new style before July. :)

bought my Manic Panic on Funky Streaks. 

"as cliché as it is, MOVE ON"

Hair Dye-ary . Electric Banana

I did it! One year with my hair (at least) colored, whatever part or what style it is, I made it! Last October 31, 2012, I did my first ever dye-ary with my hair just when I wanted to try if it will work or what but after that, everything was history. There's this moment when on different pictures I have different style or color but most of the time, it was just my faded hair dye that lasts. I like it, though its a little annoying. Hahaha

My faded Manic Panic Hot Hot Pink was a bit orange after weeks of not re-touching my hair and weeks gone by and I've been busy and a little fucked up at times, I just decided that I'll retouch it on the 1 year mark of this decision. And yep I did it. Still on the 'Cass' inspiration stuff I just retouched it with Electric Banana which was sitting in my drawer for 7 months.

At first I thought it will not be effective and I slept with a shower cap and rinsed it in the morning. YAY for the result! :D

I really appreciate it on the 2nd day. It was so vibrant and a true beauty. Haha. I love it. :)

I already ran out of bleaching powder so probably when I decided to change the style (probably next year) I will order a new color and I'm thinking of green or any light one. Though I still have a blonde and an orange hair dye that I bought on a mall sale.

There's so many online store that are selling Manic Panic now but I love to stick to my known-sellers. So I'll once again and will only order Manic Panic on Funkystreaks. Get yours now and let's have fun. :)

Hair Dye-ary . Retouch and Add Ons

Why did I hesitated this move before? Moving on, please take a time on reading my Hair Dye-ary. Wonder Girl first before this.

Wishing that I did this already before so there will be no add ons but it happened already. I don't know what happen but I knew it last week that I want to make my colored hair visible.

The problem is, how can I separate my bleached hair from it? Because if I bleached again those part it will be super dry. So I did my best to at least connect whatever I wanted to add on this and with my OCness, it wasn't the same on both side but I love the result! This was more likely Cassadee's now. :)

its was a little hard to separate but I did it anyways ...

always the not so friendly process, bleaching.

I panicked a little because I almost ran out of bleaching stuff after my left side and I still have the right one to go! Luckily, I got to mix asap another bleaching stuff for my right side and I thought it didn't work because it doesn't heat up when I covered it but after 45min ....

good thing it was bleached

When I was applying Manic Panic, I thought I will also ran out of my hair dye but luckily, there are still a few left and I decided to keep it and not empty the jar. After this I'll retouch this with Manic Panic:Electric Banana 

If I'm not too lazy on retouching my hair every time it fades, this jar will not reach 10 months. And I just use it on little parts so I think that's one reason too

The other day, I was again browsing the website of FunkyStreaks, somehow I want the Manic Panic Venus Envy, maybe not now but if I already ran out of bleaching stuff then that will be the sign. Haha. 

Still inspired by Cassadee's hair but I think this style will live for a long time ;)

Hair Dye-ary . Wonder Girl

Finally! After a long hiatus of my hair dye-ary series its back and the good news is my hair is different now than the past 3 or 4 months.

this was the last decent picture of my long hair. Though some say that my faded blue-violet hair is nice I'm having a love and hate relationship with it. And after living with my faded hair for so long I ended our love and hate relationship.

hola! I'm a little upset for the last few weeks and I finally found time to have a haircut and I love how it was right after but I was a bit upset after (take note of the difference between 'a little' and 'a bit' lol) because I think I wasn't comfortable on having just plain black hair and I have this little ground breaker that I should have a colored hair until the next year of hair dye day 1 (I don't know if I made myself clear on that. Lol) and for nearly a week of this kind of hair, I finally had time to dye it. 

Everytime I do a hair dye experiment I always get inspired from different people and I may do a separate post about my hair dye inspiration (I've been thinking about that for a while now... Next time)

So I  got this inspiration from The Voice S3 winner and singer of the band Hey Monday, Cassadee Pope.

I started to listen to Cass when she was still with Hey Monday. I'm not sure about the exact year but I rememeber that Beneath It All wasn't out that yet and the rest was history. (I know that she preferred to hiatus than disband for Hey Monday and I respect that but somehow I miss them)

Going back to the real purpose of this post, I like how Cassadee's hair is making a scene at some point together with her tattoo and since I still can't empty a full jar of Manic Panic or Punky Colour on my hair I just experiment some styles but I discovered some problems that I might encounter soon.

hello again!

my dream hair!!! I'm happy that this was the result of my bleaching moment

So far no one yet is asking if I just put some clip ons but I'm ahead of those people who might ask so, No its not clip ons or extensions its attached to the roots. Lol

The problem that I realized is I will need some help to separate the colored once when I'll re-dye. It's not easy like the dip-dye since its in the inner part but I think that's just a little problem.

One more thing is, I think I like it or not how it's hidden inside. Anyways, I'm maintaining this style until I empty the jar of my Hot Hot Pink or maybe if it faded and since its still basketball season, I'll re-apply with my Electric Banana. I'm still undecided but those are my options and of course it will be in here. 

I think having plain black hair will never happen to me again as long as I do find time to dye my hair and just to be clear I don't have a problem with fading hair, we just have a love and hate relationship. Haha.

until next Hair Dye-ary! :)
