My sister is a hairdresser, but she works part time in another job.

I've been asking her for ages to do my hair, I bought the lightener and dye.

She told me Sunday she couldn't do it till today, so I've waited, but shes gone straight home after work again

Am sick of waiting now.

I have done, many times. Never had my hair dyed professionally, never had a problem.

Its quite a drastic change though, if i missed any it would be obvious!

am dark brown now, have a lightener then a rich red to puton after

THat's not too bad to be honest. Dark red covers quite nicely, I sometimes miss bits and it blends quite nicely - just looks like low lights.

Is there anyone there who could at least tell you if you've missed bits? If you were near me I'd help

Also, just seen your pictures, you'll look gorgeous with dark red hair!

My husband is here.

Might give it a whirl later.

I'll still have to hassle her to cut it!

Sorry for telling you to go for it, never expected that. At least your new hair looks fabulous!

Disenchanted3 · 13/05/2010 16:29

Its OK, If you knew me you would know I am eternally cursed so I expected it really!

Turned out OK in the end!
