Chapter 71: How I did my hair Magenta/Hot pink

Hello~ Im gonna be writing about how I did my latest hair color today!

EDIT: This trick only makes the color last a few washes. If you want to keep it long term, don't save on the product LOL. You're better off spending the money used to buy conditioner to buy another tub ;D afterall we use so much conditioner anyway / _ \ it's not worth it.

My color previously was this ugly faded red color..



Then I went to bleach my hair with 2 boxes of Gatsby's EX-HI Bleach in clear blonde. The product is very little, but since its a guy's product, I can't complain :( It worked very well for me! It doesn't give me that pee-colored ultra brassy looking colored hair when I did my roots. It was a much brighter blonde and a lot less brassy than the Palty bleach I used. 





The red/orange parts turned into a light peachy orange color. It was cute and I liked it for a while, but my hair suddenly seemed more and more peachy orange colored overall, like everything started to "blend" 2 weeks later.

Sorry if I look really tired in the picture below, only put on base makeup and pearl eyeshadow below my eyes.

I used half a spoon of La Riche's Cerise and slightly lesser than half a teaspoon of Atlantic blue and watered them down with about 3.5/4 of conditioner in a regular hairdye mixing bowl. I couldn't take a picture because I was using my hands. You should get a nice slightly darker magenta color. It was enough with some leftovers for my hair which reaches to my lower back.


I kept my hair wrapped in a plastic bag and left it in for about an hour. 
Wash off ,blow dry and tadaaaa~~ The bottom half of my hair is more of a blood red color with a tinge of pink because my hair was previously dyed many many times in brown and black before I first bleached my hair, so I wasn't able to bleach my hair blonde like my roots obviously, so it just turned brown. Anyway, its still a nice pink imo! And now I suddenly wany my peachy color back ._. Dammittt, what a finicky person.

Chapter 70: Back from the dead!!!!!

Hello! :D As titled, I'm back from the "dead"! I try not to let my blog stay dead, but there's nothing much going on with my life, really. All my friends are busy or either my work gets in the way. I think I'll be changing my blog link. What a finicky blogger.

Anyway, I got my O level results in January this year andddd my results were better than expected, but nothing to be too proud of, its a pretty average score of 17. So, good news, I enrolled in NAFA's fashion design diploma course, took the entrance test and I got accepted! Yay!!! Although I'm feeling kinda doubtful that this is the course I really want to enter though.. I mean, I DO love fashion, I love designing clothes but is this what I really wanna do? Will I succeed? I'm really not sure now and its too late anyway... I shall just do my best! I wish to be an illustrator, but that would mean I have to enroll in Fine Arts. But then, I'm not into the realistic drawing styles. Anyway, here's something that I've been working on! :) A Kill la kill fanart!!


I dyed my hair bright pink/magenta yesterday! Only the top half of my hair is pink, while the bottom half of my hair is a pretty crimson red :D Before I dyed my hair, I bleached my black roots + red hair with Gatsby's EX-HI. You guys might be kinda confused, since I never posted any pictures of my previously red hair, so I shall post it in another blog post which I will write immediately after this and post it another day~ I bought the 2 of La Riche's MOST pigmented dyes and watered them out a lot with a bowl of conditioner, and I used slightly less than 1/4 of a typical La Riche hairdye bottle (Both colors combined) for my entire length of hair which reaches to my lower back because the color still turned out very dark and vibrant. I think I shall keep this color for a while..  I love it so much~~ <3


It's not very obvious in this look, but I used Dollywink 01 Dolly Sweet for my upper lash, and Decorative Lash's play cute #4. 
Both bought during my trip to Hokkaido. Never blogged about it, did I? :( 
Lenses are Luxury babe 58 Blue. 


Dug out my Little Red Riding hood dress set. I love juicy looking and glossy light colored lips, so I used Kiss Me's limited release Kiss Me x Chupa chups strawberry cream lipgloss I got last year over my lip makeup. Smells so goooooddd~~~~~ 


Hahahaha, I got a cute babypink-rimmed statement glasses. Its so cute~~ <3


I'm sorry because there's nothing much going on, and I can't blog much.. :(
