redder hair

hello ladies
last night I dyed my hair a LOT redder, I didn't realise quite how bright it would be, it actually glows...
I bleached it using the l'oreal blonde thingy... I'll check what it's actually called later if anyone's interested, and then put crazy color in fire on top, left it for half an hour et voila. waking up this morning was a bleeding shock!
after all the bleaching I've subjected it to I'm surprised it's not in worse condition; it's a bit frazzled and dry but generally okay, even my extensions.

another picture to show you my new bag (post coming soon) and highly muscular arms...

so what do you think? too bright?

new red hair!


I had red hair just over a year ago, and the other day I was off work and bored, and suddenly got it into my head to walk down to boots and buy some more red dye!

I bleached it first to a light orangey colour, then used Shwarzkopf Live Colour XXL in Real Red, I needed just over 2 boxes of dye (I bought 3), to cover my actual hair and my extensions, which I didn't bleach first as they were already a bit lighter than my hair. I also bought a pot of Directions in pillarbox red, which I've mixed with all of the little tubes of conditioner you get in the permanent dye, so I can top up the colour every time I wash it! I'm glad I bought that colour because the XXL red is orange based, and the Directions is blue based, so layering them has given me a more true red.

It looks a lot brighter in that picture than it actually looks, this is what it looks like in real life...
