• july 2014
  • ‹ orange › bleached my hair once with the palty hard bleach: gold brown right after my 18th birthday party. my hair was naturally long and black with brown dye on the ends so it didn't bleach as light on the ends compared to the top
  • ‹ green, ash brown › using manic panic: rockabilly blue diluted with suave naturals: tropical coconut conditioner, i toned my damp hair, letting it sit for a little over an hour, and ended up with ash brown hair that had a greenish tint. tbh it was pretty unique and although i was shocked by it, i grew to really like it bc it was different. there were some actual green spots though on the blonder, yellow parts (since blue + yellow = green) like my baby hairs
  • ‹ dark orange › i let the toner fade off through washes
• august 2014
  • ‹ gold › i used wella: t18 lightest ash blonde to tone my hair and it didn't do much except make my hair a /little/ less orange and making it more golden...
  • ‹ dark orange › ...but it faded quickly and went back to orange
• september 2014
  • ‹ dark orange with blonde sections › i bleached a streak each in my bangs, the hair framing my face, and two of them on my bottom layer on each side to a blonde (i tried to bleach it only a little, leaving it in for less than 5 minutes, for some subtle hi-light, but it actually turned blonde)
  • ‹ same as previous, except green, ash brown bottom layer › i tried to tone it again with _splat: deep emerald__ (bc teal tones out orange more than a straight up blue) but i only put it on the bottom layer first, but then i started to notice the blonde parts were turning green as heck, so i quickly washed it off (this is so tragic omg)
  • ‹ same as previous, except with pink bangs › i tried toning my hair with lush: daddy-o shampoo but it turned my blonder parts straight up peachy-orange. green still stayed. (what is this watermelon concept, honestly)
  • ‹ golden ash › (sounds kinda contradictory) used l'oreal: excellence creme 8-1/2A champagne blonde to dye over my hair. it removed the pink, made it a little more even, and although it was golden still, it looked a little ashy

• november 2014
  • ‹ ash blonde › dyed my hair again with the l'oreal: excellence creme 8-1/2A champagne blonde but this time, mixed in one packet of ardell: red gold corrector plus. this made my hair look super ashy (except, it still looked gold in some pictures).
• december 2014
  • ‹ dark ash blonde to blonde balayage › went to ml2 hair salon in bellaire, hoping to get a grey balayage, but my stylist refused to lighten my hair too much. she ended up bleaching my whole hair evenly then dying the top a dark, ash blonde and then taking tiny sections and dyed my ends a blonde color. the ends were yellow in some lighting, ashy in others
  • ‹ a more subtle version of the previous › bc my dumb ass tried to tone my hair with wella: t18 lightest ash blonde but with a 10 vol developer (which only deposits and doesn't life) so my ends got darker and decreased the contrast between the top and my ends (smfh) ((at least it was ashy?))
  • ‹ back to the salon color › i used dawn: dish soap (lol) and head and shoulders: 2 in 1 shampoo to strip the toner out of the ends of my hair. eventually, the lighter ends came back

• april 2015
  • ‹ re-touched my roots › used l'oreal: excellence creme 7-1/2A medium ash blonde on my black roots
• may 2015
  • ‹ dark brown to blonde ombre › used l'oreal: excellence creme 5AB mocha ash brown on my roots to make root growth appear more subtle. (ended up with tiger stripes in some areas... #yikes)
  • ‹ dark brown to greyish blonde ombre › started using clairol: shimmer lights shampoo to tone the yellow and make my ends look greyish
• june 2015
  • ‹ blonde balayage with black root melt › mixed wella: 1n/051 black and wella: 3a/148 dark ash brown and dyed my roots, then used _wella: powder lightener__ with a 30vol developer to balayage my hair (all with the help of kaley). toned hair using clairol: shimmer lights shampoo on my ends and manic panic: rockabilly blue diluted in conditioner on the orange roots. ended up with an uneven gold+silver hair with some green spots near the top
• july 2015
  • ‹ black to blonde to purple ombre › dyed my ends purple using manic panic: ultra violet diluted with tresseme: anti-breakage conditioner. the darker blonde/orange strands did not pick up the orange too well
  • ‹ black to orange to grey ombre › tried to lift the orange parts with ion: 10 minute hair color 9v very light violet ash blonde and ion: ash intensifier but ended up dying all of hair grey. still had orange roots under the black (ugh)
  • ‹ black to a small amount of orange to grey ombre › bleached my hair with wella: powder lightener and 10vol developer to try to lift the orange then dyed my hair again using the same mixture but added wella: 050 cooling violet to it as well. orange remained but it was a lot higher up and easier to hide. ends were _absolutely fried
  • ‹ previous color but with purple dip-dye › dip-dyed with manic panic: ultra violet mixed in with tresseme: anti-breakage conditioner.
• august 2015
  • ‹ shorter and faded › let my hair fade from the grey with my over-use of conditioning. chopped off 2-3 inches of my hair bc of how dead it was
  • ‹ black to orange and smokey blue ombre › tried to tone my hair but didn't dilute the dyes enough (for the orange: manic panic: rockabilly blue mixed with green food coloring dissolved in apple cider vinegar, for the blonder ends: manic panic: rockabilly blue mixed with manic panic: ultra violet ) failed miserably and ended up having orange, green, and blue hair
  • ‹ black to turquoise green to teal blue ombre › decided to get rid of the orange by just dying it with straight up dye using the same mixtures but with less conditioner and no purple (used green food coloring in both mixtures)
• november 2015
  • ‹ black to teal blue to deep blue ombre › used one n only argan oil hair color perfect intensity: midnight blue
