Let me explain what happened. I wanted to do a few red highlights because ever since having kids, my hair color has seemed much more dull. I just wanted to freshen up my red a little by adding a few extra red pieces. I've actually done this a couple of times before and it's not even noticeable, but I think it makes my hair more appealing.
Anyway I went to the same place I have been going to for 9 years. Over the past 2 months, however, she has been moving all her clients over to a new brand of hair dye. Now because I've only highlighted maybe two times, I dont' really have a set formula that we use, but could remember which swatch we used a guide. So, she found the color she thought most closely matched it. It did NOT work right. This is what I ended up with (and the picture does not do it justice-It was flaming red!.)
My hair was a flourescent red/orange ...it looked horrible-Trust me! I had to call in sick the next day and go back to have her try to fix it. She had a color technician on the phone along with ALL the hairdressers that work there, and they were all trying to fix my hair. They tried multiple things but nothing would cover the obnoxious red. So, unfortunately they had to dye my entire head a darker color than my natural to cover it up. I have never dyed my hair, so this is a first. I am trying to take this a fun and exciting new adventure for me...so I am okay (sort of). What do you think?
It will take some getting used to!
