o I finally ended my “blonde ambition” which lasted about almost three months. The plus point for having such striking hair for an asian is probably the attention people give to you. I attended an event back then when I had my black hair and there was this girl whom I thought was cute, but she did not even notice me through the entire event. Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago, that same person was talking to me and complimenting about my “cool” hair.
But likewise, the hair is also the disadvantage in scenarios where you don’t want to get noticed. I can’t go downstairs to buy food without some people giving me weird stares (and probably wondering which gang I am from). Hell, I can’t even check eye-candies out on the MRT without getting spotted.
Anyway, this is an account of how my hair changed throughout the blonde duration!
So I boldly decided to DIY bleach my hair because I bought a silver hair dye back in London and wanted to try it badly!
This was at the second round of bleaching:
The silver dye looked promising when I put it on my hair at first, but it just came off entirely without even leaving any colour on the bleach hair!
No thanks to me who had decided to try everything right before a christmas party – I had to attend the party in this dreadfully ugly yellow hair! D:
Thankfully I was gonna go to Bangkok really soon, so I knew I could touch up the colour in the salons over there which are much cheaper than those in Singapore!
flying to BKK with the ugly hair!
The first thing I did in Bangkok is of course to get the hair I wanted!
I opted for a platinum blonde, but I had no idea how to say that in Thai, so I told them I wanted “sii khao” (white colour) and the result was amazing:
And for the next few days in Bangkok, I really got funky with the loud hair!
After I came back, the hair started to fade into platinum blonde, but also was getting a tad too long to handle.
So I went for a haircut!
Then Chinese New Year came and the black hair roots were coming out, hence I went to this salon in Jalan Besar to touch up my hair.
I was recommended to do this ash/grey colour by the stylist and it turned out really awesome. Apparently I heard that they are known for their colouring.
The most awesome thing about the new colour was that it looked metallic when it’s wet! METALLIC!
As ash colours go, they don’t last very long. After awhile the color started to fade…
…and eventually I was back to blonde again!
So after awhile I kinda grew out of the blonde hair and decided to use the Liese DIY hair dye that has been lying around in my room for the longest time ever.
And I finally “deblonded”!
This is the first time ever that I’ve managed to get a DIY hair colouring that accurately match the colour printed on the box! Also because my hair was so “bleached” that it should actually get any colour perfectly!
How it looks now with flash!
I’m anticipating the colour to fade into some boring brownish tone, but oh well, this colour rocks my socks for now!
your blonde hair is dayummm sexy. you should keep it!
