Fading fast

I hate the fact that some colors fade so fast. I have only washed my hair once since I colored it and it already looks like it needs to be colored again.
I had been using special effects hair dye (plus I had a few bottles of color fiend) for the funky colors, but I decided that I'm going to try manic panic and see how it holds up. They have more colors and I've read good things about them. So after I receive the colors I just ordered, I'll be changing my hair.

Color Fiend - Dark Fuschia

I wasn't sure how this would turn out, but I like it.

Revlon Colorsilk - Burgundy

Before

After

I'm not sure if I like the way this color turned out or not. I may end up changing it.

Revlon Colorsilk - Medium Golden Chestnut Brown

I decided I didn't like the blonde. Since I had colored my bangs different colors than the rest of my hair for several weeks my bangs were a kind of gray color and didn't match the rest of the blonde. It wasn't horrible or terribly noticeable but I wasn't happy with it.
I asked my whole family to vote on the color they wanted out of about six colors (I have a large collection of dye). Teya really wanted me to keep it blonde but voted anyway. This was the color she voted for. I'm happy with the results.

You can see my new cut a little better in this picture.

Revlon Colorsilk - Light Ash Blonde

I decided that after getting my hair cut I would go blonde. Here are the results.

Cancer patient

I decided that since I won't be able to do my hair once I have my shoulder surgery I would get it cut REALLY short so I didn't have to worry about it. It is super easy to style, I basically don't have to do anything. I've had lots of compliments on it so far.
I feel a little naked but I know I'll be used to it within a few days. I got up in the middle of the night last night and looked in the mirror and was surprised by the person that stared back at me.
It's a big change, but I like it!

Loreal Preference - Instense red copper

The burgundy had washed out in the front of my hair so my bangs were purple again. I decided I'd change it and go red (or orange as the case may be).

Ignore my double chin!

Change

I don't think anyone except the people who live with me actually know how often I change my hair. In the last month and a half I have had it blonde with turquoise streaks, bright red, black with red streaks and bangs, black with red bangs, black with green bangs, black with purple bangs, burgundy with purple bangs and now burgundy all over.
I don't really like to post pictures of myself on my blog but I'm going to try to be better about it so that you can see all the different colors and such. I'm going to post a picture on here to start that is hideous but that's how much I love you all.
This was in between the black and burgundy. Justin insisted on taking pictures since it looked so great.

A new blog is born

I love hair! That's all there is to it. I love to look at pictures of hair, study hair, and change my own hair. I've been coloring my hair since I was 15, and I've only gotten more daring and less worried as time has gone on. Justin has only seen my natural hair color once.

I have thought for several months that every time I make a post on my "bowl of oranges" blog I should write what color my hair is. Justin suggested that I start a new blog that is all about my hair. I thought that was a great idea.

So here it is, the crazy adventures of my hair!
