Ombre hair

It's that time of the year again.
Pre-exams periode.Where I get bored of everything I do and am.I yearn for something new. Last year I've cutted myself bangs and got a tattoo the next day. This year, I shaved my head (ok.. that 's a summer-souvenir I got from New York ) and bleached my hear at a hair salon, it totally failed and looked horrible.

I wanted Ombre hair.. I was in love with it the first time I saw it. But they really didn't knew what they were doing.. and just plain bleached ¾ of my hair. It was horrible!I felt like I looked like Tila Tequila in a very very bad way.Some parts of it looked okay and some parts just went straight from black to blonde. Together it looked even worse.. I should have known better, I should have ran away screaming when I realised they were dumbasses.. that one hairdresser even thought I was from African descent..I mean.. seriously.. look at my face

I speak of the past because.. Today! For the first time of my life..I DYED my hair.. and I did it all by myself. I couldn't stand my fucked up hair anymore and since I couldn't find a decent hairdresser who didn't had an overbooked agenda (stupid ChristmasCrap).
I decided to do it myself.(also they charge 51 euros just to do a shampoo dye.. that means that the color fade away if you wash it several times.wth) So I ran to the store (it was like 10 minutes before closing time) and got myself hair toners in 2 colors: high blonde and dark brown.
4 Hours later.. I was very satisfied of the result..Although the blonde didn't really got much blonder.. but I got the very beautiful Ombre hair.

PS:It was a real pain in the ass to find decent pictures of asian girls with ombre hair that weren't skanks.
PS II: I did my curls the paper bag-way by Michelle Phan

    i am getting so bored of my hair and im planning to DIY ombre hair myself.

    for the past 3 hours i've been researching about ombre hair online. i finally came across your blog! and you are SOO RIGHT about not being able to find decent pictures of asian ombre hair, cause i am chiense and asian hair just works differently for some reason.

    would you mind telling me which hair dye products you use? there are so many out there and i am skeptical about which one to get...thankss!

    now following :D
