Help me DIY my hair pls!

[MrsBobDylan]

I need to dye my hair. I have bog standard blonde highlights but I can't replicate them at home.

What all over hair dye would be good? I like a warm, honey blonde colour.

I tried twice to dye my own hair years ago and both required a hairdresser to sort it out because I made such a mess of it!

I can't help, because I'm useless, but watching with interest! Please take before and after shots!

My hairdresser texted yesterday to say they have closed! I’m grey if I don’t dye it! I have shortish hair! What now? I’ll have a go at the colour but precision cutting? I’m going to look like an aging scarecrow!

Lots of us with the same problem!

Oh God this isn't good!

I know it's really the least of Coronavirus worries, but I too will resemble an ageing scarecrow.

I've been on eBay and am going to give a mid blonde a whirl. I have curly hair and the last time I tried an all over hair dye I strongly resembled Ronald McDonald.

I will do a before and after, if only to give us all a much needed laugh.

Have scarves, hairbands and kirby grips on standby. Step away from the clippers.

I am seriously considering stepping towards the clippers and giving myself a no 2!

Is it wrong to feel happy I lost my hair during chemo so don’t have this worry ?
Embrace the hats my friends !

Getting hair dye has been problematic. It’s another vanishing product!

My hairdresser sent a message around saying please please please don't use home dye. Everybody's going to be in the same position it'll be grand!

Try esalon. You can message a colourist online and they blend a colour or highlights for you. You can upload a pic of your hair too

No it won’t be grand. I’m not wanting a white steak and growing out grey on my parting! I’m home dying. My hairdresser hadn’t mentioned it in their email.

Esalon are sending me a kit. Thanks for the advice.

It's nerve wracking doing your own hair but I've used them twice now and it's turned out well. There've tweaked my colour too and answer questions etc.

I’ve never done my own hair colour so I will be nervous. The salon, when it reopens, might be taking a lot of my money to correct my mistakes! Oh well!
