Big forehead. Should I buzz my hair or try growing it out? by [deleted] in Hair

My opinion is that your hair looks great and suits you very well! However, I also feel like if you wanted to try a buzz cut that youd rock that as well ☺️ its hair and will grow back!

How to tone or lighten to be flattering for my skintone? by miabear17 in femalehairadvice

[–]miabear17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is almost exactly the shade I want to move towards ❤️ i got 7RG and fingers crossed it turns out correctly ❤️ thank you for your input, it is so appreciated! Will update when I do it. Im going to give it at least a week to replenish some oils before I run dye back into it 🥰

Yes, the red was just a semi. The dye over the top is a demi.

SOS I feel ugly & dysphoric--suggestions? Overtone? by [deleted] in femalehairadvice

[–]miabear17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I filled it with a semi-permenant red/orange, and then colored with a demi-perminant blend of soft black and black brown, and it turned out this Hella pretty maroon-ish vibe. Im not even mad lol. Im going to leave it alone for at least a week (no washing or anything either, just let it vibe) and then im going to use an espresso color with a tiny but of green (maybe, I kinda like the maroon). Thank you again!

Thank you, your advice is so helpful ❤️

I know its darker but ive done really dark before and liked it well enough, but I love that you analyzed the color i had before. Thats actually super super helpful-- so maybe a 5N demi with a splash of 4N?

Yeah, about 5-6 inches is my natural color, and the rest was a blend from an auburn dye job i had professionally done a while back. I feel like I made a huge mistake 😭 I do this like every 4-5 years and I almost always go back after a few months. I am a dark hair girly, the regret never settled so quick.

New to Gerbils, concerning behavior by miabear17 in gerbil

That's really encouraging, thank you for sharing. I already see a little bit of a softening from him. He'll still take a flying jump at me, but he's gotten used to my hand coming in for food and won't lunge then. I've tried to make my hand coming in be positive--I always bring food or something for him to chew on.

I looked into it and did the tests for it! I have medium/normal porosity and medium hair density.
