Pink Hair

My newest obsession has been pink hair color.  Now I know a lot of people say the word "dye" when they talk about color but the professional word is "color". FYI it's a pet peeve of mine when someone says "I want to dye my hair".  OMG that drives me BONKERS! OK rant over.  Anyway so as I was saying I am OBSESSED with pink hair!  I have used many colors and tried many ways to achieve what I want.  My favorite one that I have used is Jerome Russell Punky Colors in "Flamingo Pink".  This color is not for the faint of heart.  When you think about flamingos you think a soft pretty pastel pink...WRONG!!!  This color is BRIGHT!! I sported this color for about 6 months.



So then a friend of mine gave me some Special Effects Deep Purple and I added it to the ends of my hair for a fun pink to purple ombre effect.  I LOVED this look and wore it for about 3 months.
Ok so now I'm tired of the super bright and decided to soften it up a bit.  I did a light bleach wash (mix shampoo with your bleach) to lift out the magenta so the lighter color would work. For my current look I used N'Rage Bubblegum Pink.  It turns out almost NEON when first applied but after a few washings it's a soft, beautiful, cotton candy pink.  Here it is after I rinsed but before I actually washed it.  I am ABSOLUTELY  TOTALLY COMPLETELY over the moon in love with it.

I mixed a teensy amount of Flamingo Pink in this application but this is what it looks like after about a week and a half.
 
 
 I wash my hair about every other day so I usually have to do my hair around every two weeks.
 
Ok so this is the story of my obsession with pink hair I hope you like it.  Feel free to ask any questions and I'll try my best to answer them.
