DIY Ombre Hair Using Sun-In: Results!


Sucky pic :(
Here you can see the "blending"
(sorry for crappy photo, ITouch camera sucks!)





Hey guys, it's been too long! I've been super duper busy lately, but I have finally taken the time to tell you all about my ombre/sun-in experiment results!

After spraying Sun-In 4 separate times, I was pretty satisfied with how my hair looked. The color change was soft and natural looking, and I really enjoyed it! I started to notice how my face looked brighter and more awake. I'm not sure if that makes much sense, but I felt like my hair finally started to reflect the happy girl I am. The change in color isn't quite as drastic as I was going for (you know, Miley's look), but I am totally contented with the way it looks! Don't let the not-so-big change disappoint you though; I am absolutely positive that if I had continued to spray my hair every other day, then my hair would have gotten as light as Miley's. The stuff works, I can tell you that! And I believe that anyone who wants ombre hair the DIY way can definitely pull it off using Sun-In. And no, Sun-In is not paying me to say this LOL.

You can read here for instructions on how to do this yourself. And for those of you who cannot find Sun-In in your country, then I would suggest you use Schwarzkopf Blonde S1 Blonde Spray. It does the same thing! :)

DIY Ombre Hair Using Sun-In

I really want Miley's hair..
let's see how that goes.
Hey guys! I haven't posted in a while, but here's a good one for ya! Recently, I've been seeing a lot of ombre hair all over the internet. I was really interested in the look, and I soon found my self going crazy wanting to have ombre hair! Now, I went to my local salon and the girls there have no experience doing ombre ends. I was quite disappointed, but I remembered that I'd once used the product Sun-In and it really lightened my hair! I quickly went to the store and bought some of their lemon Sun-In product (it's more intense.). I was really scared to do it myself; I almost got an anxiety attack just thinking of how horrible my hair could turn out! So I decided to let my mom do it, but if you are confident that you can do it on yourself..then do it! So here's how she prayed it on: First you have to dampen your hair and make sure there are no tangles. She then put my hair in sections and started with the very bottom layer of hair. Since you only want the color on your ends, make sure your ends are sprayed thoroughly. She then got some random strands and sprayed the product a little higher then the base line (this is to blend in the color...you don't want the color to go straight across your head!). Then I would just rub my hair a little, just to blend it some more. You can then go out and sit in the sun for a while, or you could just do what I did and blow dry your hair.

I've been doing this for a few days (repeat every 2-3 days, until you get the color you want) and I've already seen a difference! It's coming along nicely, and I can't wait to see how it looks in the end. FIY I have dark brown hair; I've read that if you use Sun-In with dark hair the color can turn brassy (red-ish), but that has never happened to me. I wouldn't use Sun-In if your hair is black though, it could turn your hair orange or red-ish. If you really want a fab ombre job, then I would suggest to go to a salon that knows how to do it. But I'm poor, so I just decided to do it myself! :) I hope this helps for anyone out there who needs info on DIY ombre hair!


P.S. I will post pictures of my hair when I see a bigger difference. Right now it's hard to see the color change, but it's definitely there!

Helix Piercing, Hot or Not?

I would get mine in this area.
(and I love this earring design!)
Good morning guys! I've been thinking recently about getting my helix pierced. I think helix piercings are super cool and look great on anyone, but what do you guys think? I know my mother won't approve, but what the hell. My life, my ears. But I would like to get all of your opinions. I have two lobe piercings, that I absolutely adore! I was also thinking of getting a third lobe piercing, too much?

So please tell me what you think. Are they hot or not?


P.S. Sorry for the super short post, I'm crazy busy today! :)
