So, I had fancied being red again for quite some time now.

I decided to take the plunge and at the weekend, DBF dutifully helped me to do a weak bleach bath and dye my hair with Pillarbox red Directions.

Here it is! Please excuse the failed fringe :)

It is still a bit lighter on the ends, and IRL it is a lot more 'red', it shines like bright red gems!

I love it. My hair doesn't seem to have taken too much damage, I used a reconstructor after and will be babying it like crazy.

Anyway, yays! :cool:

Hi JoFlakes, I'm a returning long time member Robert.

Red is my favorite so just popped in to see what kind you had. Looks good :)

I like it! It suits your bone structure-- kind of fairy-ish/waif-ish. Nice!

I also appreciate comments on the bangs, haha, I'm still not happy with them but in a couple weeks they'll grow out :)

Sorry I can't reply to everyone individually, I'm off to work! :D

Thanks! I hope it does. It is always the way that it seems to grow super quick when I don't want it to, and slow when I do :laugh:


Super cute! :)

Thank you so much! :flower:
