i love style needs to get their hair did

maybe paler brassy yellow -> OMG WHITE -> ahhhh blonde

haha! i have never put henna on my head so i think i am safe. maybe i should try superblonde? i'm just scared to throw more bleach on top of my whole head but why not.

just remember to grab a strand of your hair and tug on it every 5 or 10 min. you'll know if its still strong or if you need to get thst bleach out NOW.

LAUREL holy shit you look HOT!!!!!

I agree!

Yeah Laurel, that Veronica Lodge look really suits you!

i remember seeing those pics some time ago and thinking how good it looked! i also really like that length on you!

I concur: I am surprised how much the dark hair suits Laurel.

Ally: I like you reddish-brown the best, but maybe that's just because that was your color when I met you, so I resist all deviations from that.

i love blonde ally!

though i think she can pull off any color she wants!

i don't think the glaze did anything. my hair felt a bit coated after i washed it out, but there there doesn't seem to be any noticeable difference. and it stinks! it's got a really sweet, heavy, slightly floral fragrance.

hmmm...weird. i shall steer clear. thanks!

i'm going to try it as a postconditioning rinse a few times a week, i guess, and see if that does anything.

oh what did you do before?

i did it as a "treatment." you apply it to dry hair, leave it on for 20 minutes, then shampoo it out.

after all of this blond talk i really want to bleach my hair! i'm having edie sedgwick fantasies. my friend in college would use manic panic's virgin snow, which is basically a toner - it takes out the yellow and makes your hair a really pretty, silvery white.

I got fed up with the straw-feeling damage from the feria and yesterday impulsively got about 4" chopped off:

it looks good! you know, i've used feria exactly once when it first came out and i could never do it again after what it did to me.

hmmm i've had only good experience with feria - i used to use a lot of their reds. but i've stopped using permanent colour the last few times and now just use a semi: it fades out better and seems better for my hair condition.

yeah the cut looks great, Jaq, though I don't think I know what it looked like before. It's liberating, chopping off all the fried hair, isn't it? I <3 my Elumen dye so much, my hair always feels so soft and isn't nearly as damaged as it used to be in my bleached blonde days!

I have too much gray for level 2 color, RR. I may go for pro color next time; am thinking about getting some interim darker semi color done next week maybe. Just having it short again is liberating too finefine - it was as long as it's been in 30 years (just to shoulders, w/ grown-out long layers). Is the Elumen a salon brand?

i'm feeling the need to cut great chunks of my hair off, too. hasn't been above my shoulders in a couple of years almost. right now it's just looking kinda manky and blah, and i think having it shorter would further enable my attempts to only wash alternate days.

Now that everyone and their mother has an angled bob I am particularly looking forward to getting a new haircut next week. BANGS!

If anyone has seen the latest Chanel ads in Vogue (the one with the brunette in the bicolored tights), that's the cut I'm going for.

Bad picture, but maybe you get the idea.

Oh and duh "the brunette" is none other than Claudia Schiffer!

i got my hair cut yesterday sort of like that, but no bangs

also i read that first as "claudia schefter" !! :)

wow..claudia still rockin hotness

hey schef, i was in walmart yesterday buying dream blonde shade "glistening magnolia" (ie fuckin light blonde) and I noticed a dream blonde lightener/red banisher in a blue box. maybe that would do the trick?

ooh interesting. quincie, i've done that cut before. it is fun! go for it! also, i have done angled bob on and off for 15 years and yeah, it is kind of annoying when it's suddenly popular and your cut feels not good anymore!

i am currently just below shoulders... i am at the make or break point of growing it out LONG or chopping again. for now, it is awkward, so i think i dye?

you might as well give it another couple of inches before you chop it. you've put up with growing it out until now, so don't give up when the goal is in sight!

i know! i have to keep reminding myself of that!

it's totally hair-cutting season, eh

i haven't dealt with my hair for a very long time, months. somehow the colour grew out really well, but this week it hit the point where roots are looking reallly dark and just a bit beyond rocknroll to lameland and everybody who's used to me with lighter/blonder hair is suddenly whoa look at how dark your hair *really* is!!

i'm just gonna go get it cut and get my hairdresser to do whatever she feels is right re: colour. might just go back to dark hair with some highlights

i can't believe i'm now a person who cares abt colour in my hair

also: hi, i love style, i still <3 u
i have been busy
in a good way tho

xxxpost to Jaq, yeah, Elumen is a salon brand. :)

Comparisons made with my new haircut thus far: Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction, Anne Hathaway in Get Smart, Kate Blanchett (sp?) in the most recent Indiana Jones. So far I am quite happy with these comparisons.

Mr. Que was a bit put off, but he claims it is just because it looks so different. He's all "well it is like if I dyed my blue." Um, no it's nothing like that, actually.

Sounds great to me, Quincie! I always loved that haircut.

I am trying something new today.. wearing my bangs straight-across rather than parted on the side as I usually do. I have a pretty raging cowlick that prevents me from trying but this morning it just sort of clicked and my bangs allowed me to spread them across my forehead. I wish I had my camera so I could fish for opinions!

Yay for new haircuts!

I found myself in Ulta on Monday where, lo and behold, they had plenty of Hydrience on the shelf! I bought all the boxes of my fave 42. So hopefully it is not gone forever, but maybe just not being carried by the places I used to be able to buy it.

i am getting my hair did tomorrow
it has been a while
i look like heart
but with roots

oh i wish there was ulta here. but i think the closest one is long island.

i am still thinking about coloring...

my hair now kind of rules!

everyone shld just come up to mtl or their hair needs

and robyn quota

don't tempt me!

*f*or their hair needs
i am drunk on turkey, wine and song whatever

xpost awyeah :D

whoa I'm kinda lost with what just happened here.

rrrobyn had an awesome hair-dying experience. then she went to thanksgiving dinner and got drunk. then she said we should all go to mtl for hair and robyn fulfillment, which sounds like a great excuse to go to mtl to me, and she thought that was cool.

b-b-but Thanksgiving is not until next month???? And I don't have a clue what mtl is??? *cries for failure to understand*

canadians be foolin u!

canadian thanksgiving is in oct. mtl = montreal.

A+++ rrrrobyn transalation skillz

i mean i guess if you did not know about canadian thanksgiving it would have been confusing but there was not much to translate otherwise! maybe i am just used to the awesomeness of rrrobyn!!!
