catcher in the dye
Oct. 26th, 2005 04:34 amIt's not a good dye job if my head doesn't look like I dipped it in tandoori sauce during, and my shower doesn't look like a scene from Psycho afterwards.
I love the Herbal Essences hair dyes, though. I'm so happy with this one. My hair looks great, feels great, smells great. I hear horror stories of chemical nasties or unpleasant side effects but that's never been a problem with these guys -- great color, no problems.
Addendum: Now talked with most of my professors, and not only do we not have final exams, we don't even have stuff due the final exam class period. Except for Child Psychopathology. So right now I'm setting my going-to-austin-for-winter date for Wednesday, December 14. Will buy tickets soon.
Addendum addendum: Just re-read CLAMP School Detectives, the mindboggling crack that it is, and noticed that volume 3 was the last volume. Aw! I'd wondered why there hadn't been any more for ages. On the other hand, maybe it's just as well. Akira and Suoh were starting to get rather creepily slashy in the last few chapters, and while I'm all for a good subtext, it's rather more disturbing when the participants are in fifth and fourth grade. Good God, CLAMP. How have you not yet been arrested?

Date: 2005-10-26 04:47 pm (UTC)I'm giving my roots a break, so my hair's pretty boring. I may have to try that dye once I can again, though, since it looks like the one I usually use is falling out.

When I first dyed my hair red, it was for a costume so I had a specific color in mind, and there was only one product - Féria - that had that bright copper I wanted. However, apparently it was too bright to be successful for long, or something, so I'm looking for something else that will make my hair look like it's naturally red. If you say HE is long-lasting, I'll definitely take that into consideration.
