Silly, but I keep getting compliments because people think I did the ombre look lol.

My natural color is great because I don't have to bleach or damage my hair too much, but it's horrible to dye cause it fades so quickly. I'm dying to have that dark hair pale skin snow white look, but no matter what kind of dye I use or how dark I color it it's back to blonde in a couple weeks. Luckily the brand of pink stays in for a good 6 weeks and as it fades it's a pretty pastel color so I can't complain too much about upkeep. And ya I'm sort of the opposite of you...I've been working in office settings with strict dress codes since I was 16....I quit my job as an optometric technician a few years ago and went into business for myself doing animal care. That freed up the ability for me to go wild with my hair
I miss having intense colors in my hair. I had to quit coloring cause my hair just got too damaged and as you know the colors are so much upkeep.
I actually had hair so blue I looked like a smurf the last time cause it got dyed too light. I also did Purple with magenta & black. Yeah I guess I got a little colors happy and did the stripes too. I'll have to post some pics when I find them.
