That's why I stopped dying my hair in 2001. Never again.

Is it at least uniformly colored?

im vain and hats arent allowed at my school

It can't be THAT bad. I always dye my hair bymyself, and even if it doesn't come out the way I want it to, I always find a way to fix it. Highlights, however, I'll always let a professional do. I don't even want to try and do it myself. But if it's my whole head, I'll do it myself. Take a pic and post it. Making this thread left me curious as to why you don't like the color. :p

I had someone highlight my hair once- it came out really nice...but the growing out part was NOT fun. :eek:

This will probably sound like a dumb question, but did you get a color that would suit your hair? Cause some hair colors can come out darker or lighter than you think, depends on the color you use, and the color of your hair.

What does it look like exactly? Personally, I like weird hair colours. But if you hate it, I can see why you'd miss a day of school 'til it gets changed.

How come you didn't just dye all your hair your natural hair colour after it was starting to grow out?

I did. I highlighted it in August 2001 and then dyed over it in October 2001 (the last time I dyed my hair). You could STILL see some highlights. It's gone now, though...

Oh I see. That grow out is such a pain. I actually had my hair dyed my natural colour after highlights last year, but it isn't exactly my natural colour, so now that it has grown out several inches, it is starting to look noticable. :o

Me too. Why's it so bad, Chris?

My mom does my highlights. When I had a pro do it, 1/4 of my hair fell out, I swear. The only complaint I have is that it fades too damn quick. 6 months my ass. :rolleyes:

My hair is too dark to be dyed. I had bleached it before and it looked really nice (but expensive). I try to dye it every now and then; since I have a little of grey hairs here and there but can't find a color that would suit me . I need to invent my own hair color I guess:rolleyes:

SUCKS FOR YOU.

Of course it's not gonna come out like the picture on the box it all depends what your natural color is and it goes with that.

Hair dye KICKS ASS. Except for that one time... I dyed it red and it came out like... ORANGE... I liked it, but it was NOT what I was aiming for.

My current hair, however... pink :woohoo:

When you buy a box of hair dye it has pictures telling showing you if you have this color hair.... When you dye it will be this color. Did you look at that?

Did you try washing your hair again. Usually the 2nd time you wash your hair the color comes out lighter.

Ahh, am I the only person these days with virgin hair? I was gonna put red at the bottom this summer but I have curly hair and that'll prolly look really bad

if you try to dye it a lighter color than it already is it won't work without bleaching it.

I don't dye my hair, usually highlight it...but I kind of want a different color brown, I don't know...

I wouldn't even bother dying my hair, because it's such a nice color, anyway. :D

3 shades of brown later...and its good
