How I did it: Ok, to be honest my hair is currently green, but I completely forgot this goal was on my list and my hair was back to its natural colour before I started dying it again. So it's not cheating or anything!
I dyed it red ages ago and it has literally taken this long for it to go. I've had a few disasters in the past involving me getting impatient and putting a different coloured dye on top of the dye already on my hair. (I once accidentally turned my roots bright red while the rest of it stayed black. Somebody told me I looked like a vampire that hadn't quite finished changing from a bat, and I was traumatised.) So I thought I might as well wait for as long as it takes to fade before I start going crazy with the hair dye again.
Lessons & tips: Tell everyone you know what you're planning to do, and that way whenever you're out shopping with someone and you're tempted by a packet of dye they'll stop you from buying it. It can get a bit annoying (I was itching for new hair after the first month) but you'll thank them in the long run.
You could drop the domestic bit, y’know…
Marigold you are exactly where you need to be
it’s already starting to show through! And thank you :D But if I dropped the domestic bit nobody would know that I make delicious macaroons, and I think it’s important that people are aware. x x
After a year of 2008 filled with hair disasters (a perm in June and discoloration gone awfully wrong in October), I dyed my hair of a color as close as possible to my natural one – light brown – and I’m now 2/3rds of my natural color in. I’m itching to dye it but I won’t because feeling my natural, soft, shiny hair for the first time in 15 years is priceless. You keep it up! Write me anytime for support. I know it’s hard!
