the lavender washed out super quick, so i'm washing my hands of the feria boxed shit

here's to hoping this doesn't end poorly

cute! what are you gonna use?

ion's pastel mint

i've done some of their regular line before with good results, so i'm hoping this will be the same

i've used the ion when going mint and could assure that it went very well! i could pull up a picture or two for an example if you need it

lately i've been playing with what sort of pink dye i want to stick with, it's been an adventure

i've got it setting now, with a backup tube just in case it needs a touch up

back in the day i'd just dump in whatever neon i liked at the moment and it was fine

but now that i'm about that pastel life it takes more effort

which is lame

that's always good, also if you don't do it already you can mix some of the mint dye in with the conditioner you use in your hair to help keep it refreshed between dyes

but yeah, i know what you mean. pastel is the biggest struggle

i've used most all of ion's brights and pastel line and like them well enough, i also used pravana and right now am experimenting with sparks

arctic fox is also one that looks like something i'd like to try

before i'd always been a true user of special effects, but it's so hard to get out here and it costs too much when you factor in the shipping (and how much hair i'm dealing with)

i'll try that with what's leftover of the dye and hopefully it'll keep longer

yeah, i had some of that in the candy apple red a while back and it was such a hassle

red everywhere

yeah, that was the biggest downside. i was always scrubbing down the tub because it would be stained red from the blood red dye i'd use

like it held in my hair really well, but you wouldn't think it from how much was constantly washing out

yeah, exactly

well it's certainly green

the hard part about pastel is that you have to try to get your hair platinum to get the shade you want

of it helps, i use this bleach with the accompanying developer

it works wonders in lifting
