Oh V, so sorry. My blonde friend used to touch up her roots all the time. Well one night we decided to give me highlights with the leftover, which actually turned into my deciding to try being blonde instead.

bad idea. When I woke up the next morning my husband was like "What the *#(&$ did you do to your hair?!!" It was horrible. I cried. So off to the store to get a color. While reading the box for the color it said I first had to strip out the other color. So I did that, which gave me white straw hair. I had to take the kids to swimming lessons, so I crammed it up under my baseball cap. When I got home I died it brown. Well everyone at work kept commenting on the red in it. Turns out that every time I washed my hair it was getting redder and redder. I finally had to suck it up and cough up the $$$ and get it professionally done.
