Were you happy with the results? Or do you have a tale to tell?
Last summer my boy wanted to put some sun into his hair. I suggested combing some peroxide through it to brighten up his highlights.
Well, the discount store had some highlights on sale and he decided to go that route. He used the entire bottle, and left it on longer than suggested! oh my goodness! I really expected he would have waited for me to help him...but oh no!The result, to me, had his head looking like a dirty Q-Tip. Gross. But he loved it, and was sorry to have to shave it off when school started!

I dyed my hair a couple of times when I was younger. I did it myself both times and it came out OK. Once I died it red, and once black. My hair is naturally a boring light brownish color.

Nah......NEVER!I haven't dyed my hair by myself.Either i do dying on my hair through a Barber or i tell my mother to dye my hair because, I can't dye my hair by myself because I think that it'll make my hair look ugly cuz i don't know how can i dye my hair by myself :P

I'd suggest others also if they want to dye their hairs so tell others that are experts in hair designing to dye your hairs.

I have always dyed my hair myself since i started nearly 10years ago. It has always turned out ok except for 2 times. Once was when i out a brownish/red colour in and it turn out bright red. OMG.

My hair was always blonde when i was younger but as i got into my teens it started to go darker so i started dying it blonde. One time i out a new blonde colour in it and it turned out white. I had to get my mam to run up to the chemist and by me a light brown colour to put in over it.

at the moment i am gone back to my natural colour, have gotten tired of dying it all the time.

I have always dyed my own hair, until...I wanted it a dark red so i went to the store bought the kit, and when it was all said and done my hair was purple. I waited about two weeks thought I'd just buy myslef a frost and tip kit and turn it blonde, I got a brand new head of hunter orange hair. I am not joking it was sick looking. I ended up going to a professional and they got it blonde for me and I'm still having to go get the blonde cut out every three months. Needless to say I haven't had my hair dyed since. I've learned to live with my natural red hair.

I have always dyed my hair at home. I have light brown hair. I have colored my hair to be either blonde or redish. I like a nice strawbeery red shade.

Yes, I have dyed my hair myself several times. I prefer to have a salon do it, because they are better at it, but when I did it, it turned out pretty good. I did my own recently with a product that came with a glazing cream and my hair is so shiny. My hair is normally dull and lifeless, but now it is just lifeless and shiny. LOL! But I tend to want to have a salon do it. It is just so expensive!

Oh my yes!

One time I wanted to put highlights on my hair, i followed the directions to the T and when I was done I was in tears!

My hair turned YELLOW...not blond...YELLOW like the crayon color yellow!

I had to go to the beauty shop to have a professional get it 1/2 way back to normal.

Needless to say, I don't try to dye my hair anymore!

I have done this on my own to disastrous results and never will again. I had old blond streaks I wanted to cover so I figured I would get a darker brown and it would cover the streak and blend in with my normal light brown hair .Well when i lifted my head from the sink I was shocked to see I was coal jet black. I was crying and laughing all at once my best friends was there and she was saying maybe it will dry lighter and i hoped she was right. Now I must mention I did this to save a whopping 10 dollars. I dried it and i looked like a witch my hair was black it was so horrible. But what was worse was calling my stylist and telling her what I had done. I spent the next day at the salon for 5 hours getting my hair back to light brown and it cost 60 dollars. Never again
