Hey guys,
I've been on and off LHC for a while (when I stop concentrating on my hair I make the most progress, it seems.)
Anyway, I'm bored with the colour. My natural haircolour is something between dark ash blonde and light ash brown. Really mousy and boring. I used to dye it light blonde and though that colour looked great, my tresses were complaining (god, the dead ends I had to chop off...) Anyway, I dyed it back to this chestnut brown colour in februari and let it grow out since then. But now I'm bored. I've pondered henna-ing it, but since I'm the kind of person who gets bored easily I figured that might not be such a great idea because it's so permanent.
Everyone keeps saying how much better I looked as a blonde and I kinda agree with them. The problem is that it damages hair. Now, since I've obviously gone from brown to blonde before I know a way to minimize damage (I just dye it 2 shades lighter with an ammonia free dye, wait 4 weeks while deep conditioning and babying my hair and repeat the process until I get the desired colour) it's still damaging. Anyone have an idea on what to do?
I want to like my own haircolour as that is the best thing when it comes to healthy hair, but I'm just so bored with it. I've also seen another girl with the exact same haircolour I have (she has tailbone length hair) and I kept thinking she should get a casting colour or henna it because the colour is so friggin boring.
