Self Portrait Sunday
March 30th, 2008So, here I am rocking the self portrait again this week.
This was taken last night after Mum and I got back from taking the munchkin to a local restaurant to eat. We spent four hours (at least) yesterday re-doing my hair with Nuclear Red, Pimpin Purple and Blue from Special Effects and Paul Mitchell respectively. Hair dye. Yes.
The pink was starting to look rose and orange, so it was time to get things going again. I have to say that I absolutely love Special Effects hair dye. It’s not every dye that you can leave on your hair for almost an hour and the hair is light and fluffy and fresh and clean rather than stripped and nasty when you’re done.
See what the others are doing with their self portraits this week, by checking things out at MidLife Musings. It’s still hosted by Cass, don’t worry, but just on a different blog!

Oh, love the hair. What’s the tattoo on your shoulder?? I have a bunch of tattoos and I just love them. I love seeing what others have.

Wow– those colors are really vibrant and really took to your hair. The blue is my favorite.

I always wanted to dye my hair some crazy color, just for fun, but I’ve always worked places (now, especially!) where it wouldn’t be acceptable.

Love it. I was never able to get my color that vibrant when I was in my pink/blue/purple phase!

It’s an ankh/pentagram that I had done from a sketch I drew. It’s my second tattoo but I’m plotting more LOL.

Those should show it and my first tattoo a bit better.

Thank you

Thanks. I love the blue too. I’m impressed with how red the red is. They don’t kid around with their names. The blue’s helped by the fact that we brand it into my hair so that really makes the color stick.

I have a few friends who can get away with streaks here and there of something that’s not normal. It can add some subtle punkiness. I used to do just thin streaks of bright red.

I think the fact that we left the red on for about six times as long as you were supposed to and flat-ironed the blue in really help it stick; but with the Special Effects dye you can do that because it’s vegetable based so it doesn’t kill your hair.
