~ new hair color ~

21 May 2009

supposedly, the hair salon that i frequent gives 50% off if you dye your hair there on your birthday month. since my birthday was yesterday, i decided to try it and color my hair red. bright red, like chili red. or fire engine red. well, that was the plan. of course, just like my other hair-dyeing experiences in singapore, this one didn’t go the way i wanted. i ended up having some pink, some orange hair. oh well.

it started out well… the color specialist bleached the hair really well. i like the dark root effect. i like the fact that the back is a lot darker than the front. i just didn’t like her choice of colors. i asked for one color on the whole head, she gave me two different ones. i asked for red, she gave me pink and orange. she said that it’s what’s currently “in”. but i didn’t ask for the “in” thing… i guess it’s basically a miscommunication and i wasn’t clear enough when i explained what i wanted.

oh well, it will grow. i think i can live with it for the next few weeks, then i can dump another color on top of it.

yeah, i like the last picture, too… but in real life, it’s pretty bright. i really don’t like the orangy/brownish part, though.

ah yeah, I dont like the brownish part too. merahin lagi sendiri aja apa mbak? tanggung gitu depan pink belakang orange… tapi rambutku sekarang kek gitu (maklum cat sendiri) haha XD

pdhl kl sekepala pink-ish gitu lucu lho!

Thal, dibikin merah kayak rambutnya Allison Iraheta Amdol aja. Her hair colour’s wicked!

naah, i don’t really like burgundy-ish color. i want red. chili red… but as i said, i can’t do anything with the hair right now. have to wait for a few weeks until it all settled. meanwhile, i can learn to like it :)

That’s the weirdest thing abt some salons. Most of them never ever give you what you want! Have to say that it’s a little too pink for me to stomach. The orange looks good & when combined together, looks good. But would love to see how the next one turns out :-)

ah, i actually like the pink better than the orange and would like to get rid of the orange ASAP, ha ha. well, hopefully, it’ll be all red on the next try :)

I strongly agree with you… The ‘in’ thing doesn’t always what the customer really want… and it happens many times… No wonder so many of us appear kind of the same… due to the ‘in’ thing… We need individualities…
