*Fail Friday* - The epic fail of hair. - Part 2

If you read last week's Fail Friday, this is part 2. 

I left you with a picture showing my first bleaching attempt.  I realized I needed it more "white" than "yellow blonde" so I went to Sally's.  I walked to the hair stuff and got the 30 vol developer that I needed and grabbed THIS, but I honestly can't remember if I grabbed the blue or purple. 

The sales lady asked what I was planning to do, I even showed her my hair that was hidden under a hat, and told me I had the completely wrong thing.  I told her what I'd previously used and she told me I needed that again.  Reluctantly, I said ok, figuring she knew better than I did.

BOY was I wrong and luckily I haven't seen her at that store since.  Here's what it looked like.

This is my I'M NOT A HAPPY CAMPER face.  Yes, it was lighter BUT IT WAS STILL YELLOW!  And still in some places orange. 

By this result I was fed up.  I said F-IT.  I didn't want to bleach my hair AGAIN and cause more damage.  I didn't want to go to the store because I might have been hauled off to jail......even though I know some people that work there I don't want to go there. 

I said to myself, this is going to have to do.  The next day I went ahead & mixed up the red color which looked like this.
Crappy phone pic, but it matched my Coke can.
I slathered my hair up & let it marinate.   This is what I ended up with.......

What happens when you mix red over yellow..........THIS SHIT.  A orangy pink. 

I'm still really pissed about it, but you'll have to wait to hear more.

....to be continued


TOODLES Y'ALL!!!
