Being Blonde



My hair history:I have been dying my hair since I was just a teenager. Over the years I have went to the high end salons, and been dying my hair at home compulsively. Last year I decided to go dark to avoid dying my roots all the time. About six months ago I went back blonde I couldn't handle it anymore. Now although I am a natural blonde,I like to be reallyyy blonde. I was going to a salon every 4 weeks to get the roots touched up. Before I left the salon I had been talked into every new product that was going to make me look like I had swapped hair with a Victoria's Secret Supermodel.

I have tried dying my hair with other at home colors, even going to Pro stores buying what they told me was perfect and not getting the results I wanted. I was in Target 2 months ago and I saw this beautiful blonde with the color hair I had been getting from the salon(see the box above). My roots are the issue the rest of my hair stays that beautiful blonde color on the box.


The Product:Loreal Excellence Blonde Supreme -Extra Light Natural Blonde 02 is the shade
I pay anywhere from $4.00-9.00 depending on coupons and which store I am at. It comes with a pre-treatment for your ends.Plus a nice deep conditioner for your hair after you dye it.

The Review:
I wanted to show you the back of the box because my roots after they are dyed come out to the top shade,the lightest color.Now my roots are a dark brown,but I have short to mid length hair so a bottle goes a long way with me. You have to be patient,and give yourself enough time to reapply.This is what I do and what works for me,please DYE at your own risk!

1.Apply hair dye to my roots only and leave for 45 minutes
2.Check my roots in the mirror make sure its saturated and if all is well rinse off
3.Dry only my roots and reapply hair dye to my roots for 20 minutes
4.If needed I apply to the rest of my hair for 5 minutes
5.Rinse out of my hair using the conditioner that comes with the dye
6.I apply my leave in products, let air dry and style as normal

Allowing myself enough time to reapply has given me the exact results I have been wanting. If I go more than 5 weeks I absolutely have to reapply if I do it at 4 weeks I am okay with the first application.

PLEASE do not go out and dye your hair because of this review hehe what works for me may not work for you and I cannot come to your house and help you:) I know my hair and like I said I have dyed it off and on since I was a teen.

Do you dye your own hair? Are you a slave to the salon? Don't comment and tell me how perfect your hair is because I am already jealous just thinking about it hehe.
