Me too! Hahahaha.
Even if you didn't, I missed blogging in general. In one of my subjects this semester, I am required to keep a blog but I'm NOT interested because first, it's school related and second, I don't get to post whatever I want.
But since last week we have finally got to do our thesis proposal defense, my schedule has slackened...even for a bit. So I now have some time to update this blog before it dies. I must save it. In connection with my having some time now, I have decided that it was time to color my hair back to purple since that's when my hair coloring obsession has started.
While I was in Florida last April, I have successfully bleached and dyed my hair into pink...all by myself. Perks of living abroad by yourself, I guess? Being independent, that is.

I knew that I needed to learn how to fix my hair while I was away from my sisters. The fact that I couldn't find any hair salons around Panama City Beach only added to my wanting to learn how to do it. So during one of my trips to Target (one of my favorite stores in the USA!), I decided to buy these Splat Hair Coloring Kit so as to start working on my hair during one of my days off work.
One of the things that bothered me when I bought these was the fact that I did not read the box. I am completely to blame because I bought a separate set of hair bleach when the pink hair dye includes its own set of bleach. How silly of me. I ended up using both bleaches on my hair since it's as stubborn as me and the color won't completely come off. So I guess it's good that I bought the extra bleach?
What I loved about this brand is the fact that the dye wasn't that liquid-y. It was sort of gooey so it's not that messy to apply onto the hair. I can say this because I've tried a different brand for my hair just last night and that one's a bit harder to control once you apply it to the hair. It drips all over the floor! But both brands work, nonetheless.
The color isn't exactly pink once applied to my hair because after I bleached it, it just turned orange-red instead of white blonde. So upon applying the pink one, it turned reddish.
Last night, I asked my sister to bleach off my hair again and apply purple - the very first color I applied onto my hair more than a year ago. I wasn't expecting it to turn too purple because after bleaching it, I noticed that my hair just turned orange red again and some of the pink didn't come off. But surprisingly, it showed better than I expected it to.

| After bleaching - see how there are still orange and pink tints? |
I've long given up in hoping that my hair will cooperate and actually turn white blonde when applied with bleach... But I still try. Anyway, I love how the purple came up. It still has tints of pink and orange but what the heck? I still love it! ♥

| So many colors to choose from! It took me 30 minutes to pick out mine! ♥ |
If you guys want to buy hair colors, just leave a comment! I'm thinking of selling some of these. Have a nice day!
