You need to bleach your hair first, otherwise it will just make your hair look darker.

yeah but i dont want it to be completely blue you know. i want it to shine through my hair!

If you have hair like me, it won't matter what you do, you won't be able to make your hair blue. Maybe for a day. I remember having to bleach it pretty good, and still within a day and a half my hair was green.

fudge blue lagoon looks really sexy if you dye it three + times for over a half hour each. You only need to bleach two or three shades lighter than yr natural hair colour, but you do have to bleach first. My hair looked like the girl out of that last harry potter movie. or so I was told. That kind of colouring.

Blue can often turn to green on bleached hair. It depends on your hair, and you'll only find out by doing it!

it has to do with the chlorine in the water you wash your hair with. sadly, if you want to keep yr hair blue, you need to only wash and rinse with mineral water.. cheap stuff will do better, as it is usually filtered more and doesnt have many elements left. dont use evian. pain in the butt but it works.

I take it back its not called that, its called blue velvet.

It's a complete myth about having to use mineral water. It's purely to do with the type and color hair you have to begin with.

Oh, why do you want to do that for?

Unnatural colour hair is not my thing.

so the fact that when I shower under tap water, and it turns green, or fades far more rappidly, and the fact that when I only rinse with bottled water, it stays perfect blue for two months... ?

Im not talking about the water reacting with my hair, Im talking about the water reacting witht he dye that is currently in my hair.

Are you're posts being sponsored by Evian?

phoenix 01.16.2008 08:02 PM

no, i said DONT use evian. it has too many trace elements in it.

Crumb's Crunchy Delights 01.16.2008 08:10 PM

Slightly off the point, what is this strange word "naieve" that spelt backwards, spells Evian wrongly?

phoenix 01.16.2008 08:15 PM

suck on my toes.

I have no idea what I'm writing.

:( that made me reluctant for jsut a moment. since my hair's dark it won't be too drastic though. i've been down that road (bright orange, piurple etc) don't wanna go so far again
