hair color - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Oh, what a beautiful morning--the sun is shining, the birds are singing & flowers are blooming. The perfect day to color my hair! I have this strange looking splooch of grey that grows right out the top of my head, and I am just too vain to let it show.

Why am I sharing this? I don't know! WHY NOT!

Have a good day, all!

Jane

Me TOOOO!!!!!!!!! I hate the grey. I really do. I want to color it. But everytime I try, I end up with some funky shade of something.

I can't afford to have it professionaly done, but those boxes at the store are so confusin and they lie!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe I should just pick blue or pink or purple, that way I know what I am getting.

If you color yours today, I will to.

BUT~~~~~~~~~ I want pics!!!

OH, hair color is EASY! I've been doing it for years! (ever since I tried to "highlight" my hair 10 years ago and turned it orange--PUMPKIN orange, and had to cover it with temporary color.) Now I play it safe and stay close to my real color (well, the non-grey part).

Hey, I've already got my box of Natural Instincts out. #13-SUEDE. Go get yourself some!

I'll send you a pic in a PM--I'm too paranoid to be right out on the internet!

OK!!!!!!!!!!!!

#13 Suede, that sound luscious!!!!!!!!!

Ok, suggest one for me:

Kierra6 · 04-12-2006, 09:22 AM

heh...heh...heh. I haven't seen my "real" color in years. I was about 70 percent grey and by that I mean WHITE when I was 38.

I had it professionally done in one of those gorgeous purple/red colors. Three weeks later, it was pink.

One of these days I'm gonna catch and strangle that friggin' Hair Fairy that shows up to frost my hair overnight.

Now, Clairol 6N is my natural color. Dark Blond. I do it at home. Even my hairdresser thinks it's my real color. sshhh!

Kierra6 · 04-12-2006, 09:24 AM

Ang...I LIKE your hair! The dark brown shot through with the red. Gorgeous!

OVERIT · 04-12-2006, 09:24 AM

I won't tell. I promise. I just can NEVER seem to find the right color. EVER. It's either too brown or too black. I just want something natural.

So, do you girls, recommend Clairol then?

janeeyre · 04-12-2006, 09:25 AM

Well Ang (putting my Professional Hair Colorist hat on...) let me get over to the Clairol website to get the name of the color I have in mind for you. I know what it is, I just don't know what they call it!

Kierra, haircolor is almost addictive, isn't it?? Once you start, it's hard to stop!

janeeyre · 04-12-2006, 09:26 AM

I swear by Clairol's Natural Instincts.

janeeyre · 04-12-2006, 09:29 AM

Ang, go here: http://www.clairol.com/brand/natural...alette.jsp?hf=

Kierra6 · 04-12-2006, 09:30 AM

The Clairol I use is the closest thing to my natural haircolor and the highlights it produces are groovy. It's like $5 at the dollar store.

I think one of those deep reds would be really cool with your lovely golden-green eyes, Ang.

OVERIT · 04-12-2006, 09:33 AM

Thanks guys, I'm getting really excited now!

How about this? Too red?

janeeyre · 04-12-2006, 09:35 AM

That is exactly what I was thinking! With your eyes, something reddish would be beautiful, and close to what you already have.

Kierra6 · 04-12-2006, 09:35 AM

oooohhhh......I like it!

IMO, y'all would look pretty no matter what color you wear!

Kierra6 · 04-12-2006, 09:36 AM

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Smokin', red-hot mama!

Wooo Hoooo!!!!!!

janeeyre · 04-12-2006, 09:38 AM

You're so nice, daddysgirl!

janeeyre · 04-12-2006, 09:39 AM

Ang, you really have the most beautiful eyes.

janeeyre · 04-12-2006, 09:43 AM

I'm off to the bathroom to do the coloring....back in a bit!

Kierra6 · 04-12-2006, 09:45 AM

How sweet daddysgirl!

Yep, I love the haircoloring thing, Jane. Also dig switching out colors on eyeshadow and liner. Which is truly hilarious considering I didn't even wear make-up until a few months ago.

Oh, and it's so much fun to have glittery purple toenails, or hot pink. I've got a coral polish that almost glows in the dark.

weeee! It's fun to be a girl.

daddysgirl29 · 04-12-2006, 09:51 AM

Ya know, I have to agree when it comes to this stuff! Girls rule!

p.s. My favorite color on my toes is coral! Great minds...

Kierra6 · 04-12-2006, 09:52 AM

well y'all, guess I'm gonna have to break out the cam. I wanna see the new do's!

also need to go dig up some dirt. Planned a flowerbed and bought some rose bushes, bedding plants, herbs, peat, etc...yesterday.

Let's celebrate Spring and bring on the color! Add a little zip and pizazz.
