Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Uh Oh....I groomed ME and OOOOPS ! I spend SO much time on my girls - keeping up with their hair... that I NEVER pay attention to my own. Well - today I did. or TRIED to. I know there is a woman in the Yorkie Show World who dyes her hair to look like a yorkie. .....Well - I was NOT going for that look when I decided to Frost my own hair this morning. I went for the SKUNK Stripe look. What did I Dooooooooooooooooooooo !!!!! I NEED to hear some BAD HAIR Experiences here - Whether it be a Do it Yourself Job or a Stylist - and I decided after today - I really should read directions on boxes when it comes to PERMANENT hair color - I never dye my hair and now I know why....Frosting hair is just as permanent isn't it ? |

I REALLY NEED ONE ...but it IS the weekend so I guess I can hang on till monday |

| OH NO I am sorry to hear about your unfortunate experience but the good news about frost is that you can usually dye over it. I frosted my own hair once and it was SO ORANGE. My knees went completely weak. NO joke I almost died. Fortunately for me I used a toner and it brought out all the orange. I also turned my hair a burgundy color once. No fixing that one. Man was that bad. If it is really bad you could call a hairdresser and get their advice. That is what I did. Good luck. You are such a pretty lady I don't think anything could make you look bad.

You are so sweet and MAN did you remind me of the ONE time I DID Dye my hair - My husband suggested going for a change - I though why not ? after being blond with hair that looks the same for 20 YEARS - I thought I'd try red - It was BRIGHT ORANGE and I have pictures to prove it......I HATED IT and even driving in my car - I'd see these bright FLASHES of orange in the corner of my eye blowing in the wind - and it was FREAKING me out - got to work - and FREAKED THEM OUT too - lol I went out and bought hair Stripper and dyed it back to blond. Man - my hair took a BEATING that year lol - LOL ...I guess I can get used to my little Skunk Strip after reading your post and remembering ME as Carrot Top...I still can't believe that guy makes MONEY off his orange hair ! | |

| Oh no... That is bad Villette!!! But nothing a good hairdresser can't fix. If you don't want to go that route, go to Sally's. Hairdressers work there and they will have the stuff to sell you to fix it! I screwed my hair up big time this year as well. My hair was down to my butt...I mean when I pulled up my jeans, it would get caught in the waist...have to pull it out!!! I decided that my dark blonde natural color was just too mousy...so I had it foiled...took a whole roll of aluminum foil!!! and hours to do it!!! Well, the bleach totally changed the texture of my hair and when I washed it, no amount of creme rinse or leave in condition would allow me to get a comb thru it without pulling out half of my hair! So I cut it off shoulder length...in layers and now I am not happy with that either. Long hair for me is easier because I don't have to "fix" it, but I wear it up all the time anyway...I am torn as to whether to cut it off to the shortest layer and start over or what...I love the color now but hate that $100 + every three or four months to get it touched up! I bought a box of the Clairol hi-lighter but am scared to death to use it!!! Good luck on getting your straightened out with the color....what we won't do to "look good"!!!

Sorry that you had such a bad experience with your hair. I'd go seek a professinal for help. I did try to dye my hair once (my hair is a strawberry blond) I wanted to go blond but it turned out clown orange! I just had to wear hats on my head for the next few months. (I never wear hats either.) Good luck! | |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I'm feeling better by the minute - POOR DEBBIE ..you had to cut waist length hair ? OH I would love your hair ! My hair won't grow that long but it sure does get TALL ..lol - hehe - I can be Afro Girl anytime I want ! and Kitty - I SO RELATE to that - I can't believe your hair did that color - and HATS are a GREAT Idea - I love panama hats - I may need to drag mine out of the closet...I can see it now - Miss SuperFLY ! |

| Skunks are good also... When you get to my age it happens that way anyhow...On both sides of my head it has gone blonde/gray but the top down the middle seems to be getting darker and darker..What is with that? I have to pay a lot of $$$ to make the top match the sides. Can't win for trying.

| My hair grows really fast... It is to my shoulder blades again already! And to top it off...NOW after a whole life of straight hair, I have Naturally Curly hair...when it is wet it is kinked to the roots. My hairdresser thinks that also had a lot to do with all the tangles...but they were not as bad as after I colored it. Vilette...we need to see a picture of your "new do"...yeah...a picture would be nice! You just might set a trend!

| Did you use that do it yourself highlight wand set? and part it down the middle and do it? I think you should suck it up and go to a pro to get it fixed My stylist does what she calls "emergency repairs" starting @ $20 and she comes to your house if you are afraid to go out in public. LOL. THEN she bitches abut you trying to do your hair yourself! haha. Miezzi does hair, so if all else fails, you can PM her
