Bye-bye blonde

My run as a blonde has finally come to an end. The up-keep was becoming too much of a hassle (and expensive!), so I decided to go back to brunette…but on a budget.

Even having my extensions removed would have cost money, so I grabbed some needle nose pliers and did the job myself. I was surprised how easily they came out, and it only took me about an hour while I watched tv at the same time.

I felt bald afterwards. I'm not sure if the extensions really damaged my hair, or maybe I was just used to having so much thick hair for so long. Either way, I felt like I had no hair left, and I was sad to see my long luscious locks hit the trash.

pulled out a couple hundred of these little guys

The next step was to buy a box of hair dye (Nice and Easy's "dark brown"), and get rid of my roots. I've done this in the past, so it wasn't too difficult to do by myself…but I did end up with a few missed spots if you look closely. Overall, not too bad for a DIY new do!


ta da!
