The Make-Up Thread: Because we all like to feel pretty sometimes
dr. nervioso:
So I want to dye my hair in some sort of red. Probably a deep red that look somewhat natural. (Think Scarlett Johanson in the Avengers)
So, people of the internet, as it is the first time dying my hair, do you have any advice for me? I'm mainly concerned with the choice of buying a dye kit or getting a proffessional to do it at a hair salon (Or one of my friends).
Papersatan:
How much hair do you have?
What color is it naturally?
dr. nervioso:
Not much really. My hair is very fine (thin strands) and it is around 2.5 in. I'd say.
And naturally it's dirty blonde (The exact color changes on the season/when I go outside often) It can look anything like dark blonde with a slight hint of red to pretty light blonde (Sort of like if I had highlights)
Papersatan:
It should be pretty easy for you to get good results with a kit, especially if you have help from a friend.
lAdvice:
Make sure you look at the swatches on the side/back of the box, not just the model on the front, to get a better idea of how it will look on your hair. Read the instructions all the way through before you start. You may want to put a towel or old sheet on the floor under you if you are on carpets or nice floors. "normal" dyes don't tend to stain as much, but if you are concerned about fucking up, you can put a thin layer of petroleum jelly around your neck/ears/forehead and over your eyebrows before you start which will prevent any staining from drips.
