back to black
so, i'd been rocking ("rocking" in the loosest sense of the word) the bleach-blonde-with-dark-roots look for a long time - i didn't really have a plan, i guess, i was just trying to get it long enough that i could pay for a cut and dye in one go-round. sam, after politely asking what, exactly, was going on with my hair, said, "you're diy everything else, why can't you dye your own hair?" i've never tried before, but i guess i figured i didn't have much to lose, so i set off to walgreens and matched a box to my roots the best i could. i didn't do it myself, actually - it turns out sam is an amazing colorist, about three hundred times more careful and thorough than i ever would have been. i couldn't believe how great it turned out! right back to my original color. so i kind of got a big head and decided i could cut my own bangs, too, which is never a good idea. but it could have been worse, right?
top: old quail
skirt: forever 21

Cuuuute! I love that cropped top and skirt together. And you hair turned out great, wow! I'm going to have to learn to dye mine in the not-too-distant future since the grays are starting to pop up in my bangs, haha.
ReplyDeleteI really like your hair color! I think this totally suits you much better!! Love the sheer polka dots too!

I love your hair! So funky! I'm loving it! I like the look of the black polka dots with the colored cropped top.
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks so good! Well done finding your natural colour :)
ReplyDeleteTo be honest I don't think that this black polka-dot skirt really suits you!

ReplyDeletethe hair looks totally cute!! and i saw it in person :0)
ReplyDeletehave you seen the movie julie&julia? you totally remind me of julie. I love your style and the food youre doing! and your wedding was just awesome.. I klicked trough your whole blog and really deeply fell in love with it!
ReplyDeleteI dye my own hair aaallll the time. The foam stuff is DIY friendly. About cutting your own fringe...it takes time. I used to hack my hair but now I do it better than any pro they never do it right ha!
ReplyDeleteNew follower- luv the skirt, luv your blog but your closet and all those shoes is what grasp my attention!
ReplyDeleteBest,
