Depression Understood Forums

Alright, I'm a natural blonde. I desire for my hair to look 'sun-kissed' all year around. (like during summer) BUT I isolate myself indoors so much, that I don't get much sun. So, I bought my ray of hope in the form of some box color. Hope is overrated. Now, i'm pissed! Though my hair looks normal, my roots look red. Ugh! Gots 2 correct it. Not expecting a response. Blah. Blah. Blah. Lol...

awww *hugs* love.

hope you can get it fixed soon and doesnt cost you an arm and a leg!

it dampens my spirits when i try to make myself feel better by doing something to make me look nicer and then it goes wrong.. but, these things are just temporary.. thankfully

hugs again

Awww,
Thanx jj. You get it! I feel kinda silly posting something like that. LOL!!
But I had to get it off my chest. Preferrably off my hair. Haha.
Well, last night I fixed it as best as I could. It's still a little brassy on the top, but should fade with a few washings. Ugh! Feel like I'm wasting space here!
I appreciate your kind words jj--Hugs back at you!

Understand your struggle with box color. I was born blonde then my hair turned to a dark brown color. I spent a lot of years dying it back blonde, to a sun blonde. I usually have to use two boxes. The first box usually turns it like a reddish orange color and then the second box I do a few days later to get the right color. I thought about going a strawberry blonde this time, but could only find blonde in the kind I got. So here's hoping, I don't want have to be stuck with orange hair for a day or two until I can dye it again.

Hi Hollyann,
Thanks for your response. Hoping that all went okay for you!

Can you tell by my post title that I was pissed? Heehee. Ugh. Coulda, woulda, shoulda not posted about this. Now, I'm an itty, bitty embarrassed for having done so! Well, i guess things like screwing up your hair (generally speaking) have a way of introducing depression, sometimes temporary psychosis. But I guess it could've been worse. I've heard of people whose hair falls ou!. Who am I to complain? Atleast I still have hair to gripe about. AND I did a decent job correcting it--Makes it easier for me to NOW have a good attitude about things.

Trust girls to post about hair.

hey any subject/ topic that gets u stressed or down is a valid discussion

Hahaha!! Just look what I got started...I'm surprised I even got a response on this Post!

Well, happy 'hairday' to all of you. This includes YOU Blaine.

Something there is hope in fixing.. LoLoLo..seriously..! Besides, isn't always the case ..it's the " little" things that just set us OVER !

So, how is your hair doing ?

Maybe I AM glad I posted this ridiculous topic! When you all, myself included, need a break from writing about the more serious crap goin on in our lives, we can come here for a humorous break!

Hair am I doing?? I became fed up and committed hair suicide. I took a razor and shaved my head bald. But seriously, (haha) I thought I'd fixed the problem. Actually, I'd only improved it. So, it's kinda still messed up--just a more tolerable mess! I can't afford the salon. (And my hair is pretty long) Hmmm. Do they charge $10 bucks an inch or something?! Crrraaazy!

This had to happen at a time when I was/am hit w/ too many big stressors at once. Guess this hair dilema was like the icing on the cake! Wanted to forget about everything else--Do something nice for myself. Broaden my hairizons...Dang, I coulda, woulda, shoulda just used that money to purchase a couple drinks! Atleast, that's what I needed AFTER the fact!! LOl.
