I thought I was the only crazy one here, but as I type, I have hair color on that I bought from Walgreens. I don't know what kind of color my hairdresser uses, but I had highlights that I wanted to cover because of fall and wanted a dark color. She colored my hair twice in two months because the color has fade so fast that looks like she didn't even do anything!! I don't mind paying good money for a job well done, but she has not done a good job lately, so I decided to do it myself.
BTW Nikki, your hair looks very nice! I think you look better with dark hair and bangs.
