this is my new left hand. with piercing and shizz. i feel they're christmassy but i guess the pink should be red actually?













i got the same color combo in my hair and boy is it killing me. i remember the red strands in black hair were a pain but there no words to describe how much of a pain it really is. christ. why did i go back to this?? from now on...maybe i'll go to the hairdresser every 3 weeks to make my life easier, OR just drop the red again. but i just killed my hair by bleaching it so i feel sort of responsible to keep the red for a bit.

its like, wet the hair, dry it damp. separate the red, bleached hairs (ITS NOT EASY!), theres 3 major strands of red, one in the back of course... ok then put the red hair in little plastic bags and a clip at the root to hold it. roll the bag so its not hanging all over the place in your way, put another clip to hold it that way. some of the red will be visible at the roots and there's no way to avoid fuckin them over. well, then start applying the black dye on the roots. have fun, because you got 3 messy plastic bags clipped on your head and when you try to move them to get the color in between they almost fall and come off and fuck, there goes the red... anyway eventually you're done and try to wipe off the black dye from your face. then you wait 20 to 30 minutes. start washing off the black while removing the plastic bags because they're falling off anyway when you shower with the head down... try to rip off the clips when they're tangled in the wet hair. when done, shampoo the hair because it has to be just washed for the red color. your hair is washed, you almost feel relieved and good. and the torture then continues. dry most water off the hair. start picking up the red strands again. start applying the red, all the way from the roots to the ends. woops, a bit of it dropped on the gloves next to the sink. you try pick the gloves up to wash them, you touch the clothes basket they're on. u try wash the gloves, well they're permanently ruined, as is the white basket too of course. nevermind, you have to continue with the hair. once you got the dye in the strands and you've clipped them up on your head neatly. you try to find the random strands with only bleached ends and apply dye on them, try put them on the head but they won't stay and drop on your shoulders and move around until your shoulder is striped red. repeat this on the other side. drip some more red on the plastic floor. (ruined). after you got it all you move on to trying to wash your arms, desperately, to get the red off, while trying to avoid getting the water inside your hairdye gloves. both futile. go and sit for 30 to 60 minutes while the red sinks in. bitch and swear and freeze because you cannot wear anything. go wash it all off. congrats! you now have both black AND red in your hair. you ruined your bathroom and a towel, and got red stains all over yourself, but the hair looks decent.
