Hair colour

Firstly, kindly click on the nuffnang advert on your left. :))
thank you very much!

It's a sunday afternoon. I promised to let you know how I got my previous hair colour. I just re-dyed today. :D

some people have been telling me my hair colour is very nice and asked what colour is it?

so let me start with the start of the year.
I started out with dark brown hair with slightly gold streaks in it.
then in January, I bought Beauteen's Natural Brown.
BUT, the amount was only for short length hair. so, i only managed to dye half of my hair.
the very next day, I bought Liese's Ash Brown and dyed it.
very harmful. but I couldn't stand my head being only half dyed.

In end march/early april, I dyed it to Liese's Dark Chocolat.
And somehow, I have no idea why, it became the colour shown in the 2 pictures.

doesn't look dark right?
I wash my hair everyday and blow dry it almost everyday.
So does that help as a reason why it became so bright?

so today, it is Dark Chocolat. But not long after, i swear it will change again.
NATURALLY.
cos' when you wash, the colour comes off and etc.
plus the sunlight.

Now, here are some tips from the girl who always dyes her hair:

#1) If you're afraid your hair will be damaged/already in a bad condition yet want to dye, do treatment 2 weeks prior to dyeing. Twice per week.
#2) After dyeing, wait for at least 24hours before washing your hair again. Make sure the water isn't hot. Warm is alright. If you use hot water, it damages your hair colour.
#3) If you want to dye and perm/rebond or whatever, give it at least a 3 days gap. If your hair is in a real bad condition, 1 week.
#4) Go to the salon at least once every 2 months for hair treatment. OR else, home treatments will do. Conditioner luh! If you're afraid pimples/spots will appear on your back, use a shower cap. I condition my hair everyday.
#5) Light colours are nice but you must take good care of it. Because the UV rays from the sun will cause the hair colour to change. The lighter the colour, the more prone it is to damage. Take note.
#6) Red hair colour. I used to have this colour. But it is high maintenance. The colour RUNS super fast. So i recommend you not to, unless you are one who can really spend loads maintaining it.
#7) If you hate those black roots, here are two options. Choose a colour close to your natural colour OR dye it every 3 months. Don't do it too frequently, it damages your hair.

any questions? :D

***
I am a lil out of my mind. Fancy me dyeing my hair when I'm coughing badly.
But good thing I'm so much better than yesterday. I was sleeping on a hot saturday afternoon with a blanket w/o switching on the fans and had my windows tightly shut.
my mum thought what was wrong with me.

Okay luh, gotta go do my writing again on this smoking control campaign by HPB.
HPB again!
When I was working as BA, there was this guy who took out his cigg to smoke. Then he decided to share it and passed one cigg to salesman, one to my partner and one to me. hmmm.

3 weeks of YOG break, what's in store for me/DMC peeps?
- Radio Production CA3. produce radio show.
- Press conference for PUB + NEA. The flooding.
- CIBM CA3. Brand extension.
- Broadcast Journalism CA3*.
- FYP self reflection.

& Hopefully I have time to meet a very important person. Ok, maybe not that important. But whatever. I hope I have the time.

I hope my update has been enough these days. Because, I forsee I'm gonna disappear again. HAHA.
next week, I promise I will blog about my "I almost got married". :D
