Hey everyone!

Bloooonde!
Yep… I dyed my hair blonde! Firstly: Boxes LIE! Just thought I’d get that out there… You know with the little ‘If your hair is this colour, it’ll magically turn to this’ bit? Yeah… LIES! LIES, I tell you!!
I didn’t believe any of the people on the internet replying to ‘Going From Black Hair To Blonde’ question posts with ‘Your hair will fall out!’… So I asked my mom to do it and just hoped that the people saying my hair would turn to orange were wrong as well…
Well the latter wasn’t wrong :/… My mom bought a bleaching kit and a blonde hair dye for me on Saturday. We put the bleacher in, not thinking about my already, blonde grown roots and just putting the bleach ALL over… Yeah! Major blonde moment 0.O…
As I was eagerly watching and impatiently waiting for the time to be up, my hair was turning orange… and the roots turning WHITE… No. No, no! I was hoping the problem would be magically solved when we rinced the dye out… It wasn’t! My sister, being the helpful person that she is, was standing behind me, giggling uncontrollably and taking pictures of the accident with MY mobile! My mom had exclaimed an ‘Oh my God Bianca!’ and since then had joined Venetia’s giggling.
I stood up, looking in the mirror and whether it was nervousness or actual entertainment at the state of my hair… I laughed… Every time I passed by a mirror, I couldn’t stop laughing… I don’t know what I was expecting but it certainly wasn’t that! So, that same night, we put the blonde dye in, waiting again and rinsed… Not much of a change from the carrot head, I had recently become.
On Sunday we could do nothing because all of the shops were closed but it was a good excuse for my hair to rest, seeing as you’re recommended to wait four to eight weeks before re-dying. I did not have that long. On Monday, I stayed at home and my mom went to the shops and bought another bleach. This only made my orangutan-look lighter.
On Tuesday, we dyed my hair again… But I really think we should of bleached instead. The dying, didn’t really do anything! Although the hair colour was a little less ‘in your face’.
Although on Wednesday, I didn’t go out to the skatepark, as I usually do, with Venetia because of the madness of my hair.
On Thursday, my mom went back to the little store that she had been running back and forth to all week and bought, even more bleach… but for herself aswell. After we had used this bleach, both of us had bright yellow hair now. By now you’d think I would be as bald as a rock without moss… but my hair was still strong and after the latest killer chemicals, actually looking lovely and glossy!
So back to the store we reluctantly went… It must of been such a funny sight, two people with banana hair trying to find a solution to the problem, staring at the many hair dying boxes. Eventually we chose another bleach with blue in it, apparently this would take away the yellow-ness. It did actually help a lot and with one more hair dying to an ash blonde. My hair was finally presentable again!
My hair had a much needed trim and afterwards, my mom had this idea to smother olive oil all over it and leave it in for the day and the night. This did wonders to restore the softness back to my locks. During the whole process above I slept with conditioner in my hair a couple of times and by Friday night I was back to drying and straightening.
There was an awesome concert in town that night and the ice-rink opened the next day so, it was a rush to have my hair back to normal
.
For some reason, my fringe and the ends of my hair were a darker blonde than the very light rest but over the past month or so it’s blended in more and looks good
! My mom has vowed to never dye my hair again and now my natural hair colour is growing out but it isn’t as noticable as when it grew out to the black hair, so all is good
!
Everyone was shocked at the sudden change and I’m pretty sure I’m never going to go back to black because that was just… all very complicated. 0.O
At least I’m making my mistakes now!
If you are going to bleach or dye your hair, I suggest Garnier – It doesn’t burn whatsoever! Usually we use L’Oreal which is paaaiiinful! So when my mom asked me if my scalp was burning and I calmly replied ‘Nope.’ she thought I had lost all senses because of the excessive dying.
I’ve also stopped being such a scissor-maniac! I’ve decided to let my hair grow now because I’m so envious of Venetia’s
. And if I do dye my hair again, it will only be back to my natural colour… I’ve been lovingly looking at the photos of way back before April when my hair was as natural as Gizmo’s curls [I couldn't think of any other reference 0.O...] and am now pretty much in love with that colour
. So, I’ve just gone around in an almost circle -.-’ . But I have learnt my lesson! ^.^
If you want to read about my red and black hair dying – Go hair! [Hahahaha!

Oh! I’m always making half-sensed puns, I get that from my dad ;P. And speaking of puns! I received the loveliest card in the post yesterday from my mom! We live in the same house but my parents rock
. Ok! So the front has a little cartoon owl on it with a heart and says: ‘Whoo’ll Always Love You?’ And on the inside it reads: ‘Owl Always Love You!’!
Hahahahahaha! I’ve been telling everyone, I just love it!
Anyway, I’m going to leave you now and hopefully will hear from you soon!
