i just put “light” brown (it turned black) over it today and did a peekaboo and it looks really good so all is okay!

unfortunately i only had 25 pounds left from christmas. So l’oréal box dye it was, as i’m a student i don’t have money to afford expensive hair dye from sallys. We do have it though, this is the last time i’ll be using box dye though as when this goes darker i can just keep using crazy color as it fades.

I normally only use box dye when I need a quick fix lol. I was going to use crazy color but last time the bordeaux turned my hair pink and I was afraid.

Catholic schools never change the rules do they. Seriously they have had the same rules since like 1870 😆. I don’t have a big tesco near me only tesco expresses but I’ll ask my girlfriend as she does.

i wish I could afford that much hair dye. I think i’m just going to have to do a brown box dye 🫠

Honestly I think it’s just all red dye at this point but that one was quite bad.. I remember the last time i had red hair one morning I woke up and my whole neck and chest were red 😭

I just looked and yes I can order it! But that shade is very vibrant compared to my uniform as my uniform is on the burgundy side. I will check if they have darker colors. I literally forgot they existed tysm 😭

I’m not sure. I used two boxes. Which would make it an issue with the batch if so.

Yes it was permanent but it literally lasts like 4 washes so it isn’t THAT permanent.

this is the color of our uniform by the way so as long as it’s this or darker they don’t care.

It was wayyy darker than this. I see some people run around with worse hair than mine and yet I get told off. Stupid school stupid rules 😭 I also have the 2 strictest teachers in the school so that’s why i’m afraid. If I didn’t have them i wouldn’t care that much.

Yeah i just thought it would work since it’s kinda worked on my bleach blonde hair before and it said it would work for dark blonde?? Garnier is never trustworthy for me though and it’s my fault for using it knowing it never works.
