Here's her flickr, she has a ton of beautiful rainbow make up and hair, and even describes her hair routine a bit. Wisely Chosen (http://www.flickr.com/photos/wisely-chosen/)

She's certainly unique! My first thought at the photo was that I like "real" hair better, but then after I looked at a few more, the green/blue/purple shades started growing on me, especially when they're curled.

I used to have wild colors of veggie dyes, but only for my bangs. A whole head of all those colors would be WAY too much work for me. I love this long and natural color thing (my henna barely shows and won't need to be done often). I get to be lazy. But yeah - she's fabuloso!

Thank you. I wasn't doubting you. I just didn't see a correlation between the link and her flickr page :)

Too bad about Wisely's hair though, she cut off a lot of length!

Her hair is indeed amazing. It remains healthy despite all the bleach and dying too.

I'd just like to remind everyone, the last time her photo's were posted, some people were quite mean. Please don't let this turn into that again, it was hurtful to watch.

It takes a lot to post yourself on the Internet, and she is not here to decorate our world no more than we are hers.

Beautiful hair, of course.

I only know because there was a previous thread about her a week or two ago.

I don't know how/why people were mean about it before, but her flickr is amazing and I'm glad she takes the time to make herself art.

I joined after she left here. I think she is gorgeous and very brave for posting pics. I have nothing against her. Though her short hair bums me out!

Actually, I think we've had at least three threads since then where someone's come across her and linked her photos here. Her profile (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/member.php?u=26423)'s still up here, she hasn't been back herself though.

Damn shame we chased her right off like that, clearly she has lots of fans at LHC! We shot ourselves straight in the foot with that one.

It looks so cool. She manages to make it look very polished, whereas a lot of the "rainbow" hair I've seen just looks muddled and/or damaged. I'm surprised that her hair is in such good condition for all the bleaching & recoloring it goes through. :skittles:

I now want rainbow sherbet. Or some delicious skittles! :skittles:

Oh, man, could you imagine the awkwardness of me meeting her!

How does she keep it in such good condition? :o
It looks absolutely beautiful. Even if you're not a fan of the colours, the skill she must have to dye it like that is impressive.

thats soo cool.. I wonder how she gets such amazing colour.. She must have to dye it every week. I had blue in my hair and it lasted about a week.. It was supposed to be permanent too.. ?? In some photos she looks like a wax figure to because of her airbrushed looking skin shes fantastic at make up application

Why in the world would anyone say mean things about her? I think she's actually really beautiful, and I love her hair. It definitely wouldn't work for the "average" person, but it really suits her well. Heck, I wish I could carry something like that off! :)

Can't be a wallflower and pull this off, now, can you?

I love it - what fun! But the "one day only" thing would be just about my limit, too - not to mention having never dyed my hair, it would be an odd undertaking to start out with now!

There have been threads about her in the past. She has said she her hair is made of steel (not her exact words). She bleaches it white and uses Manic Panic to color it. I believe she says she bleaches just the roots. She is a natural red head. Her hair is naturally curly too.

Her flickr makes me smile and wish I had her hair. Not that my hair looked like hers, but that I had HER hair.

And I've seen on her Flickr that she uses the Manic Panic foundation too... though I think she may also use photo shop to make her look a bit doll like.

No matter what... that woman has TALENT! She does her own hair, awesome at make-up, does a lot of different artsy type things, and is a really gifted photographer/photo shopper.

I never thought I'd say this, but it's given me a crazy urge to try Manic Panic on my gray streak....but I'm afraid it wouldn't wash out well.:confused: Don't want to LOSE the silver.:eek:

That is EPIC hair :D. Once I saw a tourist walking by with the same coloured hair in fine braids and it reached her hips; it's really something to see that in person!!

Misti told me to stop worrying about my age, and this would be one way to do it!! Dye the waist length white streaks, lavender and maybe blue? A new take on 'blue-haired old lady'. I love that her picture got re-posted.

Well, I'm a 40-year-old woman with a peirced nose and 8 earrings - if you want colorful hair, go for it at any age I say :)

I believe that I read on her flicker that she doesn't do anything to prevent the color fading, as she likes the variety. She bleaches her hair almost white, so I suppose that's helps give it such a bright color? I believe the braid pic was taken when it was freshly dyed.

Wait, here's a link to the pic where she says she doesn't do anything: http://www.flickr.com/photos/wisely-chosen/5891036895/in/photostream
