I'm thinking of dying my hair soon. In a week or two maybe.

Most of you probably know what I look like from the post your pic thread. Got any thoughts on the colour?

One of my best friends has offered to help me with this. I've never dyed my hair, so I'm nervous, but she changes her colour practically once a month so she has a lot of experience. I kinda want to do some type of red personally, but her hair is often some type of red (right now it's creamsicle orange) and I don't wanna feel like I'm copying her.

Missy, just to take away the nervousness. You should dye you hair every 1 1/2 weeks. Do blue! :D

Hum, Pira tends to get priority. She also picked the colour I want to go with anyways.

Sorry Smeel. Blue's cool too, but I believe I'm going with red.

Now the question is... Light and orangey or dark and closer to primary red?

I tend to like the darker red more, lighter just looks like you're a wannabe ginger.

Haha, true. My friends are the type who would point and go "giiiiiiiiiiiingerrrrrrrr" too.

Well at least nobody would accuse me of being a ginger vampire. Mainly because we know a ginger vampire. She's vice president of the paranormal club (which I'm in charge of now).

Are you dying it so it looks like highlights or just dying the tips?

Dunno yet, this is what I'm working on deciding on.

I'm thinking of a red done like this at the moment (only y'know, with my own hairstyle)

I say you do black with red undertones (if that is possible/makes any sense.)
