An update to show you the outcome of my hair. And I'll review the dye Gatsby Aqua Silver that I used (∩_∩)
I was plain stupid and only bought one package since I thought it was enough for my hair as it usually is. Though this was already for men, so I kinda wondered if they purposely would put less product in as most men have shorter hair.. So of course in the middle of dying I realized I did NOT have enough even though I desperately tried to squeeze out the last drop of product and convince myself that there was enough.. /fail
This is how the package looks like. My hair, as you might have seen from last post, was something between the middle orange and the yellow. And a very little part was white from previous bleaching, and according to the color chart, white would turn a bit violet.
The dye changes color really fast after putting it into your hair. I left it for approximately 20-30 min as it said on the product and washed it out. No conditioner followed, but it didn't seem dry. I used my own color conditioner though.
Result?

But I'm not THAT sad at all! I like it better than the yellow, far more! I really like the color in some of the stripes where it's actually plain GREY. But just annoyed I didn't buy two packages.. However, somehow my old light ash brown extensions matches now haha!
But I admit it's far from perfect.. And the worst part is, that the yellowness still shines through.. a lot.. which is why I bought THIS → SILVER SHAMPOO! please work
It won't arrive before next week though so I have to be patient..
Fun fact: I look more tanned now XD And if I don't look ganguro, I will definitely do after my one week beach vacation in Turkey in two weeks time ~(=^・・^)
I'm not giving up on EVEN grey hair though! But I'll wait till I go to Japan though, since it's easier and cheaper to get the product there ( ´∀`)
Ok that was it! Btw, your hair doesn't smell like DYED HAIR after using it like other hair dyes tend to do (●>v<●)
I think it looks FABULOUS!
ReplyDeletePretty pretty ~ Shimmy Shimmy ~ :DD
ReplyDeleteWoah.. Despite it being a bit uneven, as you also wrote yourself, I must say that I think it looks AWESOME! I can't even decide which shade I like the most - the greyish is cool and different, but the light ash brown is really pretty, too.. So it looks like a success to me ♥ But I see your point, and I'll look forward to seeing it after your trip to Japan *.*
ReplyDeleteBtw, you hair is awesome, in general. You must teach me a few tricks sometimes, I always just wear my hair down or in a simple braid.... yup, boring much.. T_T But I simply don't know how to work with it....
And as a small reply to your comment at my latest blog entry: I can't wait to see you at Genki! ;W; I miss you too! Even though it's only friday, but hey - one day is absolutely much better than none! ^^//
I think it looks nice :D But I hope you get it totally grey sometime...that would look... TOTALLY AWESOME 8D
