Dying your Hair
 

I've only rarely had my natural haircolor in the past eleven years. My mother did most of the haircolors - I did "natural" red for awhile before delving into fuschia and purple. I did blue streaks once or twice, green hair for Halloween, blonde highlights one summer, and even a mousy brown I hated and dyed over two days later. The only color I haven't done is pink and I hope to rectify that someday.

Currently I go to a salon for a really gorgeous red color and he does a fantastic job. It stinks to high heaven but it comes out beautifully. As long as your stylist has been trained properly you should come out looking fabulous. ;)

I've always wanted to dye my hair burgandy :]

I'm always dying my hair! It seems scary at first, but it's no big deal. I've never gone to a salon, so idk. I always get my friend to do it or I do it myself. It's not really as complicated as it seems! I loved dyed hair, it looks so fabulous.

I've dyed my hair before, I do it at home more often than the salon simply because its cheaper. I've not had any problems with hair dye though. My natural colour is a deep brown... I've had it different tones of red before, and I dyed it black last september.... The black has lasted me the longest, my brown didn't start showing until a few months ago.

My sisters dye their hair all the time, and thus far there has been no major mishaps. You'll be fine. The stylists will take good care of you.

Kingdom of Knuffel is for sites other than Gaia now? Cool.

I've never dyed my hair so I can't help you much.
My friend has hundreds of times though and she has never had a problem.
I like red color myself, but I'm happy with me natural color of brown. it's almost black like my eyes.^^
You should be fine My friend has made me sit with her during it many many times.
They tend to go easy on ya. XD
Good luck with the hair.

I used to dye my hair orange yellowish (not anymore). But it takes forever for my hair to dye because I'm asian and my hair is thick black hair. And when the dye is finished my hair is dried to the pulp. So I stopped it and just stayed with my nautral hair color.

I think my sister is the perfect example of why you shouldn't go overboard with treating your hair. It's fine to do but I always joke about her never looking the same each day I see her. She's just done so much to her hair over the years that now it seems to go through cycles where it will fall out. She puts her head through a roller coaster of chemicals and perms so it's no wonder that it eventually gives out and "dies." Still it's funny because after that "molting" period, she'll grow out fresh hair to torture :P I would have personally stopped after the first time because of the fear of that time when it doesn't return.

I would like to dye my hair again but the thought of going to a salon is scary because of my last experience (where the girl totally ignored me when it was burning my scalp off)

I've dyed my hair so much xD
I want to go turquoise next!
I love vibrant red, it's such a lovely colour!

I've always wanted my hair to be dark red, but my parents won't let me dye it ._. The only hair dye stories I know are those of others. Like a friend who bought a natural red colour, but the dye turned her hair orange as a carrot :XD It only stayed red for a day.

I usually add red highlights to it.It has almost the same effect. I only dyed it once in red but I didn't liked it as much.

I've had every hair color imaginable and finally I just settled for my natural color. Besides it damages it so much.

I've never dyed my hair >.> I know a guy that wants to dye his dark, shoulder-length brown hair, with red bits....but he can't make up his mind...he asked me for advice but I have no idea either....>.>

I would love to dye my hair. I'd be concerned about safety. I was told it seeps into your blood and becomes a cancer risk. That would be freak me out enough to stay away and tolerate being a natural brunette.

I would guess that if you didn't dye the roots then its less likely to get into your blood, most likely it wont go through your skin....but my biology always sucked >.>

I've dyed mine MANY times. I'm planning to have it cut and dyed again fairly soon.

At the moment it's black (natural) with blonde at the ends and a few blonde highlights. I'm planning on having the top half/little more than half of it cut really short and the rest left long. It will be cut to be parted on the right, and the right side will be left the colors it is; the left side will have the very front bleached platinum blonde with various shades of blonde streaks farther back...and it will have hot pink and purple in there too.

The first time I dyed it, I had it lightened to a medium brown with blonde highlights. It wasn't quite what I wanted...but I liked it anyway. X3 The second ime I had it bleached completely blonde, and I liked it...but it wasn't really the best color for me personally. The next time I had i done in three layers - medium brown, blonde, and black, in that order...and that was when it somehow turned naturally black (it had been medium-dark brown before); it started growing in really dark.

Most recent job, I did myself...I was amazed to find that it came out fine. My hair doesn't take dye well...and it's even worse about bleaching. I had to leave the bleach in for TWICE as long as I was supposed to. I though my hair was gonna be fried...but it looked really bad half done.

Turned out it was totally fine, though. Not even REMOTELY fried. It was strange. o_O

The only thing i really dislike bout the process is the smell. I DESPISE the smell of ammonia...and that's a really overpowering smell with hair bleach. >.<; And normal dye doesn't really smell too great either...but hey. I find it to be worth it.

I've never dyed all of my hair one color. But I've dyed sections of it different colors :3

At first, I had bleached blond high lights put in. I had those for about a year.
Then I just had my bangs bleached blond. I had my hair like that for about...4 years. <3
After that, I dyed my bangs hot pink. After that faded, I dyed them purple. & That's what color they are now :D

My first experience was a bad one. ^^; In highschool I had blonde streak/highlights put in but my hair was so delicate that it took years to recover from the bleaching. So all the way up until this year I never even considered dying my hair again.

But this time I bleached the bottom layer and it turned out well, bleaching has come a long way in the past few years lol. I don't think I would ever dye my whole head though, I still have some of my natural highlights and I don't want to tempt them to go away.

good luck! I have honestly never died my hair. But when you get in done professionally it always works out perfect, plus they have to fix it again if you don't like it so you'll be fine =)
