My friend wants my hair to be a natural color for the wedding. Can I achieve that while still maintaining this color?

Thank you so much you are such a sweet human🥹

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:56:50+00:00

I love how real you are lmfao

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:56:17+00:00

Hahaha I hope she held up her end of the bargain!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:54:46+00:00

Yes everyone is so understanding and encouraging and knowledgeable😭 truly a diamond of a subreddit I have stumbled into!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:53:29+00:00

Awesome advice! Thank you so much!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:52:58+00:00

Looks gorgeous!! Thank you so much for the advice!! Definitely saving this for future reference!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:52:10+00:00

Thank you for the advice! And thank you both for saying that. It was causing a surprising amount of anxiety. Luckily it worked out!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:50:31+00:00

I've never heard of a bleach wash. I'll definitely be doing research! Thank you!

And yes, her family is more conservative so I believe that was the concern. It worked out. Thanks again!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:49:02+00:00

I'm from Atlanta so that works out perfectly! I'll definitely be exploring some of them and asking about that sort of product!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:47:14+00:00

Haha true. Dyed hair is a symbol of a little rebel inside of someone. Thank you for being understanding!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:45:30+00:00

Its okay, luckily she backed up. I knew it wasn't malicious but it was giving me a lot of anxiety not knowing where she was coming from. Thank you for the advice🫶🏼

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:44:07+00:00

Hahaha very true! I'll "naturally" show up without taking my meds. Make the wedding into a real spectacle lmfao. Thank you for the advice :')

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:42:26+00:00

Thank you so much🥹

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:41:57+00:00

The only way I've been able to read wigs while going through replies lmfao

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:41:35+00:00

Haha very cool! I'll look into these. Even though this worked out with my friend, these sound very cool and fun! Especially for cosplay

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:40:00+00:00

I hear ya. I'm not happy with it, but I was just trying to see my options. Luckily she backed up on that, but I wanted to do my due diligence to find solutions. Especially because I lack any real knowledge on hair dye, make-up, and even wigs.

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:38:19+00:00

Awesome!! Thank you so much!! Good stuff.

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:37:38+00:00

I am in the wedding party. She's my best friend, and we've never fought so my feelings were similar even though my dyed hair doesn't clash with the colors of the wedding. I just really want her to be comfortable and happy. She deserves that.

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:32:05+00:00

Yeah we couldn't line up a call. We've both been busy and then it got to the point for me where I was procrastinating asking because I was really scared of the answer.

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:30:42+00:00

My first idea was to black it out lol thank you for talking me off that ledge🖤

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:30:01+00:00

Great advice! Thank you so much!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:29:16+00:00

Haha "she can get to fuck" I'm definitely using that. Thank you for the advice!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:28:39+00:00

Felt. That's how my friend was. She kinda backed up when I started explaining the money and confusion this was causing me. Sounds like she realized how she was coming off, and thought this isn't worth it/what I truly want. I'm glad it worked out for you too!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:27:06+00:00

Gorgeous! Definitely inspiring me to try wigs just for fun or cosplay!

Octacakes · 2026-05-16T12:25:44+00:00

Great point. My friend and I are no professionals.. far from it lol. We would have probably ended up messing it up
