I accidentally dyed my hair blonde

whoops.

 

Do you ever have this picture in your head of how something is going to turn out, and it just DOESN'T HAPPEN? Yeah. That's what happened here. I was going for a red-to-blonde ombre effect (because my hair is FINALLY long enough to do that kinda jazzy stuff). My sweet hairdresser asked me if I wanted to subtle or bold ombre. Obviously I said BOLD. Well, I got something a little more bold than I bargained for. I haven't bleached my hair in a couple of years, and I forgot just how well my hair takes to bleach. I could've gone platinum blonde without damaging my hair if I'd wanted to.

 

Just as a reference, here's my hair before: lots of weird colors and dye-overs and whatnot. But pretty dark nonetheless.

 

So yeah. It's quite the change. The girl really did a great job! I'm just still in new hair shock. Eek!
