waiting for pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today, I:
- Reached the end period of the 6 week "Should I or Should I Not?" period.
- Bought some ammonia-free hair lightener.
- Oiled my ends with olive oil... figure my ends are light enough as is, so if it didn't take it wouldn't be a big loss.
- Shampooed it out, conditioned with that awesome packet hair color always comes with.
- Applied henna/placenta packet.
And I'm currently waiting on results!
In the shower after rinse it didn't feel very damaged. The lightener was subtle (I think... hard to tell when damp) and I've never tried ammonia-free before, but it seemed less harsh (but what the heck do I know). The one thing I did noticed is I went for a light ash blonde, and it still pulled some red through in the lightening. I may have to get a toner to apply on top of this.
So I'll have to post pics when it's all dry! Wish me luck!

Up in a bun, away from baby fists!!!
Good luck, I bet it will come out beautiful. And don't forget, if there's no pics, it didn't happen! Just think what a custom color you will have!

Waiting for the pics !!
I don't think lightening is bad as long as you're aware it will eventually take a toll, and you'll have to baby the heck out of your hair. It's your body, and you should express yourself with it.

Pics!!
It's growing on me! It wasn't exactly what I wanted, but it looks great outside. Inside, it's hard to tell a difference, except that it's definitely all one color.
Damage verdict.... my ends feel a bit crunchy, but still smooth when I run them across my cheek, so I'll take it I'd say it lightened about 3 shades (my natural color is in my siggie). Also... I see some heavy oiling in my near future... aka, every other day for the next month -- oh, the things I put myself through. Yay for sinning!
I wanna try to L'Oreal that washes out in 28 shampoos, I wonder how much lighter I could get with that...
