Purple power..

Change is good..

I love the feeling I get when I get a new haircut, or an eye popping new hair colour. I don't really panic about haircuts anymore, if I don't like it, it'll grow out. Otherwise, I'll make it work...somehow. Although that plan didn't work out so well for me when I was 12 and decided to get an ear level bob. I was delighted to get my first short hair cut at the time, and with the hairdressers professional blow dry, I thought my hair would look lovely everyday. WRONG. I ended up pinning it all the time, as it was too short to even tie in a ponytail.

However, even though I'm pretty shite when it comes to styling my hair, I still love a new hair change every now and then. The last time I got my hair done was in January, when I decided that I wanted to grow my hair out, but color it "plum". I was quite disappointed with the resulting colour, even though the colour technician was amazing at what she does. I wanted an OOMPH vibrant plum, and it was...it was grand. Just not what I had in mind.

Anyway, I've been bored with my life and my hair recently. I've been reminiscing about my powerful red hair, and was eager to get another change. This time I didn't want to blow my money on an expensive treatment, so I opted for home dye from Tesco. I got Loreal Feria in Purple Power. My hair colourist today was of course my dear friend Fu, who has coloured my hair in the past with fabulous results.


The colour didn't come out very well on camera. The results are again, just alright. It wasn't the purple/plum oomph I was looking for. I didn't really get the 'feel good' sensation I usually get with my big hair changes.

But it's ok, change is good. I'm going to wait a little while longer until I do something completely new, for now I'm satisfied I think.
