i used to keep my hair bout shoulder length and dyed neon red, and styled in a perversion of the jackie O flip.

i really let the color go for a while–until bout 35 minutes ago it was orange with 1 1/2 inches of roots, and not very stylable.

so i went and had it all cut—reeeeeeeeally short compared to how it used to be. and i’ve just bleached it. I’m about to go get the gloves and apply the red.

i just wanted to share. i’m in one of those _accomplished_ moods.

anyone else do anything cool?

I’ve dyed my hair so many times it’s like six colors right now. My roots are a boring, washed out brown. I have blonde, red, and dark brown shades swirling through it.

I’m going to pick up some dye today and color it. I think I want a nice deep brown shade.
