Today is a big day.
I'm moving back into my house. Okay, it's not my house- I rent it from my grandmother, but it is the home that she grew up in. My mom was here all the time because she grew up 3 houses down. I was here all the time to visit my great grandmother.
It's a BFD of a house.
Last night I also came home in another way. It's kinda superficial but lets face it, we love it that way too.
I pulled my hair back to blonde. Or something like that. It's actually this really golden orange. I was gonna put some "normal" blonde dye over it but decided I like looking like Princess Peach right now. It's a futhermuckin goal of mine.
Check that off yo' bucket list!
So without further ado (and because I'm gonna get bitchcrazy about the house in a later blog I'm sure) here's the hair. And my makeup. Shit, like I'd forget that!
First of all, the before. I made it small. It's so last week. Psssh!
I used Color Oops to get the red out, and it worked pretty well for not being super harsh. My hair feels a little dry but not completely traumatized- the box even says you can turn right around and dye your hair the same day, so that's kinda badass. It didn't remove all of the dye, but it's way better than dark freakin' red meets superblonde roots. I panicked because my roommate told me I looked his age- my roots looked gray not blonde! Panic, right? I can't be THAT OLD.
I'm hoping he reads this and knows I'm being a total dick about his age right now. It's out of love, I'm sure.
Anyway, leave the stuff on your hair for 20 minutes, rinse for 20 minutes. That's right. Hold your head under the stream of water for 20 minutes. Talk about an arduous task. I am a big fan of splash and go showers, I don't like to use more water than I need and I'm a mom. Any shower taking more than 7 minutes is a shower that opens up too much opportunity for toddlers to ruin everything.
Apparently Color Oops does something that makes the molecules that hold color clear (uh, what?) and while it's in and when you rinse it it just washes away. Okay.
It works, I'm happy. And I'm back to normal. Ish.
