yellow, green, red, gray, and brown

yellow green red gray and brown

are these my favorite fall colors? nope, I'm talking about all the colors that my hair has been in the past week

blonde

first it was yellow blonde , a little too blonde and not the best highlight job. I did it with a kit from wal mart and my roots were really bugging me. plus I decided I'd like to get it back to my natural color before Brock arrives. so I found a new salon nearby and asked the stylist to get me back to dark blonde/light brown. but what I got was. . .

a little bit red a little bit gray a little bit green yikes! I know it's hard to tell from the picture but it looked horrible! red at the roots and gray and greenish near the ends. I called the stylist and asked her to fix it but she was off the next day and couldn't get me in for 5 days! ugh! I called a few other places but ultimately decided to go back to the original stylist so I wouldn't have to pay again. so I wore a hat or pulled my hair up for the next few days. then my friend's stylist called me back and I decided I'd rather pay again than go two more days with multi colored hair! so saturday I spent 2 more hours and more $$ and got. . .

brown not exactly my natural color, but it is one color instead for 5 and it is a normal hair color! this second stylist said she couldn't even figure out what stylist #1 could have done to get all those colors on my hair!













and for the record here's a picture of my natural hair color

So the moral of the story is-don't mess with your hair!

Sorry about the hair disaster. I just colored mine back to a some semblance of normal, I think its light brown. The things we do to ourselves.

Sorry you couldn't go back to the original stylist to get it done for free. But, after seeing the pic, I have no clue what she could have done either?! SO, maybe it's best you just paid to have someone else to do it. Sorry I couldn't help.
