I did it: Ombre



Hey lovelies, now if you remember a couple post's back I wrote about how I was tempted to Ombre my hair. I know a little late on the band wagon but nether the less i bit the bullet and did it. I popped into boots after my dance practice on Sunday and bought the DIY L'oreal wild ombre kit for the darkest hair, this kit comes in three shades for dark brown, medium brown and dark blonde. Excuse the lighting on my face and my lack of a nose on it but I needed good lighting to show the true colour of my hair, it's more of an in between brown and blonde shade which I personally love! Now the kit itself, the kit consist's of the dye, a pair of gloves, instructions (obviously), a brush and a conditioning shampoo. The brush makes it really easy to apply the product evenly to the head and is much easier than if you was just using your hands. Once done I had to leave on the hair for 25 to 45 minutes, I did 45 just it can take properly and then i rinsed it out, simple. I've never lightened my hair myself before so I am a complete newby to this and I did it successfully so If I can do it trust me, anyone can do it! Although If I was to have one criticism it was for there to be more shades like for a dark DARK hair colour or even red heads.

To ombre or not to ombre?




Now unless you've been living under a rock for the past year you should be familiar with the trend of ombre. Ombre had been around for a while and i've been so so SO tempted to just take the plunge and do it but every time I go into to boots and stare at the L'Oreal DIY ombre kit I always end up talking myself out of it and just walking back over to cosmetics and buying myself a new lipstick of something haha, so typical. I know it's a little old now this whole trend but I do want to try it, if it dosent suit me or I end up hating it, I can always just stick a brown dye on right? eh good logic there Jade. Do you guys think I should, Is it worth it? My only issue is it will damage the ends of my hair and I've been trying to grow my hair for ages due to one very bad bob hair cut decision a couple years ago. hmmmm. decisions decisions.
