    sooo I got my hair dyed...

    and it didnt turn out so well. My sister put color remover on my hair to take out the dark brownish/black that was in my hair, and then attempted to dye it back to my natural color which is a really light brownish/blonde and it turned my hair to a firey orange color, my roots to a bronzey gold color and my highlights to green. I had to stay home from school the next day because it looked HORRIBLE. So last night I went to a hair salon and got my hair done...it costed $75 to get it redyed back to the color I had BEFORE, maybe just a little lighter. Talk about a waste of money...and my hair didnt even turn out how I wanted. *My sister is a hair dresser but wasnt specifically trained to remove color and redye so I was her "guinea pig" haha*. Heres a picture of my new hair...

    I was wanting it to turn out like my old color like this...

    What do you think, should I stay dark or try to go back lighter in a couple weeks?

     I like the dark, it looks nice on you. I say, leave it for a bit :) I also love your haircut! Anytime I try to have side swept bangs like that it never works out that way!

     I think the dark looks nice too. I dye my hair too. I tried to go back to my natural color before, but my natural color doesn't appear to exist in a box produced by loreal. I only use loreal because it's a cream, and not a liquid that drips all over the place. I can even do my own using loreal.

     I think it looks nice! Leave it dark for a while, if only to spare your hair the stress of frequent dying :-p

     Also, I think your sis should split your salon bill with you Wink

     $75 isn't such a bad price for saving your hair.  At least you look good now.  I second your sister splitting the bill with you though.  I'd be livid.  My niece uses maniquins for guinea pigs, or boys who don't care if they get shaved later on.  LOL. 

    I also think you should leave it dark for now.

    I think the dark looks great on you, so I wouldn't mess with it. When you do decide to make a change, I'd definitely go to a hair stylist though.

    Oh, I think the dark looks really good on you.  The cut is cute, too.

    I like both.  I usually take my hair light in the summer and dark in the winter, but you probably need to give you hair a break after all the processing.  I'd stay with what you have now for at least 3 months.  My son wanted blonde hair one year (he has practically black hair) and dummy me thought we could do it at home.  Cost us $150 to fix it, lesson learned.

    Thanks everyone! I think I'm going to stay dark for a couple more months and go light in the summer like I usually do. I got rid of my highlights yesterday though and got it a tad lighter...I think it looks better without highlights.

     Off topic, I wish we lived closer so you can show me how you do your eyes like that. I try but I can't ever get it right. I feel like I look like a clown lol. Maybe its just me.

     I think it looks great. I love the cut. I always cut my own hair since I cringe at paying more than $40 for a hair cut!

    Looks awesome tho!! such style!!

    You could be a model. Even doing retro styles with the eyeliner. Anyway, hair always grows back fast, especially at your age.
