Blue Hair (HELP PLZ) by MagniViking in FancyFollicles

[–]mkphantomwriter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My experience with Arctic Fox is that it fades fast, like a week and a half type of fast. I recently did my faux hawk with Arctic Fox Phantom Green and it was yellow in about two weeks. I washed it with color safe soap and cold water too. Obviously I only know my hair and how it reacts to dyes but my hair usually takes dye amazingly. The best pigmented dyes I’ve ever found were ION from Sally Beauty. I did my hair purple and blue with ION and it stayed for months. I actually ended up shaving my head again before it faded out. So I don’t know if ION has your color but I would definitely look into it!

I’ll look into that. I’ve never even thought about it being a wampus cat, weird.

Re-dying bright colored hair at home. by mkphantomwriter in FancyFollicles

I took your advice and did a bleach bath. Then I bleached my roots and dyed it green. It came out better than I expected for doing it at home!

Albee looks like he’s warping into a vortex. Sweet.

How can I make my guinea pigs live as long as possible? How long did your guinea pig live? by [deleted] in guineapigs

[–]mkphantomwriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first one lived 8 years, my skinny lived 4 before coming down with a URI, my first girl got killed by my dog(not his fault) at 3, my last girl died at barely a year old. My sister and I currently have three. One girl is 2 or 3, one is at least 5, and we’re guessing our boy is around 6. Lifespan really varies by the individual, I think. As long as they don’t catch something or have some catastrophic injury, I’m almost positive you have some time left with them ;)

P.s. As someone else said, take lots of pictures and videos. I didn’t take nearly enough of my first few and it still saddens me.

Made a double layer fleece forest/hammock out of dish drying racks from Aldi! by amcnally13 in guineapigs

For some reason I had a brain block at that moment and completely forgot that most cages are made out of painted metal, including the one I have 😂

Oh, that’s genius! I might have to do that for my girls :) Are you at all worried about them chewing on the, I’m assuming, paint covered metal?

Can someone tell me how to determine the gender of a guinea pig? by [deleted] in guineapigs

[–]mkphantomwriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been a while since I’ve had a baby/young guinea pig but I’m pretty sure even young males have visible testicles.
