p.s. i'm blonde

I decided that after years of wanting to go blonde that I should finally just do it! And summertime is the perfect time to be blonde! So I called up Colette and she came over and got to work on my hair.  
Here's the process:

Colette separates the hair into strips, and every other strip is bleached and put into foil to process.

Brittany wanted to try doing a foil, too.

I look good in foil ;) 

After she bleached the hair, she put toner into the hair to give it a little color. Then she went through my entire head of hair and took the leftover brown strips and bleached them and put a lesser toner on those pieces, leaving them lighter blonde than the first set. As you can see, there are two tones of blonde, along with a little bit of my natural brown left.  The whole process, including the final haircut, took about 7 hours! But it was worth it! I love being blonde.  It's true what they say: Blondes really do have more fun!

  3. I love how it turned out! I was a little skeptical, but I really do love it! I haven't been blonde for a few years now...I've been waiting until I have enough money to keep it up. Can't wait to go blonde again:)
