BLEACH London - Blullini Review.

Oh Hi!

Still laptopless but working on my sloowww Mac desktop. 

I got bored with my hair being blonde again...yep again and decided to go blue!

This time I was trying Bleach London's Blullini which in the hair-swatch on their site looks like my perf shade of blue. However I just knew that after the Parma Violets incident it wasn't going to be as straight forward as having lush-coloured blue hair. So I opted for just doing my ends instead of my whole swede. 

BLEACH London - Blullini
£5 in Boots.

This THIS was the colour I wanted! But I didn't do enough hair/put enough on so when I re-did it to add more it went turquoise like I KNEW it would - like the Parma Violets and it's going to stay in my hair for so so long :(

Sorry for the gross pic just throwin some shade.

So I was kinda disappointed in this one, if you use too much/leave it on too long then it goes turquoise and lasts forever in your hair. I much prefer pink/lilac shades in my hair so I think I'll stick to them from now on!

Candyfloss Hair and Ice Cream Headband

Crown and Glory - Ice Cream Headband

Oops! I got bored last Thursday and decided to dye my hair candyfloss pink again!
On Friday I went to London to see The Stone Roses at Finsbury Park - it was incredible! And last night I ended up very last minute with a ticket to see Rihanna and David Guetta which was also lots of fun.

How cute is this floral headband from Crown and Glory? The colours match my hair perfectly and I love wearing accessories in my hair as you can see I also had a little pearl headband to poof my hair out a bit.
How do you wear your hair? I'm looking for some new fun things to try!

Peach Melba Hair.

I love dying my hair fun colours, last time I went lilac, but this time I went for a box named 'Peach Melba'.

Obviously it looks super pink and not really that 'peachy' but I loved it nevertheless:

Since I had this hair colour I've already re-dyed it to a colour named 'Custard Cream' - I will show you in due time but I quite like it!

I discussed on Twitter today how I want to make a little zine and get some creative people on board so if you are interested or know anybody who might be get in touch - cowbiscuitsblog@gmail.com and we can talk :)

Hope you had a lovely weekend!

Marshmallow Hair

In the excitement of having my tie-dye glitter nails, yesterday I dyed my hair a light lavender/lilac to match:

I LOVE having my hair light colours like this because I can just go back to my normal blonde in a few washes! The only colour I have found super super hard to get out is blue/green, so I tend to stick to the light pinks, purples and peaches.

I usually use Directions Lilac or Lavender with conditioner to lighten it up, in this case I mixed the two :)

What do you think?

New Hair Colour: From Platinum to Pearl.

I've been using the same blonde hairdye (Live Colour XXL by Schwarzkopf in Absolute Platinum) for the past 8 years now. Recently, despite my hair being in good condition, it's decided to never take any brassy tones out and is leaving me with different patches of colour. Super annoying!

So I went on a mission to find a different shade and came across this one:

Pearl Blonde - L'oreal. 

BEFORE: As you can see I have brassy tones in my fringe, even though I shampoo with a toner it's been driving me wild recently, it never used to be so brassy!

AFTER: As the dye was taking to my hair it was turning a purple colour. After I washed and dried my hair it was almost a silver blonde.

I can definitely see why its called Pearl Blonde.

The photo's don't really do it that much justice, I really like the change and its so much brighter. 

I'm really not sure why after using the same dye for many years my hair decided to turn a bit brassy when it never did for years before but I like my little change. I'm sure I'll get bored in a couple weeks and end up putting a lilac or peach in it again!

What hair dyes do you use? Do you do it yourself or go to the hairdressers?

Hope you had an awesome weekend!

Unicorn Hair.

Hey friends!

I've been crazy busy, so sorry for the lack of posts! I went back to Devon this weekend to see my mum in her new house out in the middle of the countryside and decided to dye my hair. Older readers of my blog might remember my lilac and pink hair or more recently (although I never pictured it) I had turquoise hair. WELL I've gone back to lilac and baby pink dip-dye which I like to call - Unicorn Hair!

Cheese head! 

When I was home I managed to squeeze in some outfit pictures so will be posting alot more in the next couple of week - yay!

Hope everybody is well, anybody else been dying their hair?

Ga-spiration

With inspiration drawn from Lady Gaga in the September issue of Vanity Fair, I decided to give the 'Old lady' grey/purple rinse a go!

(via:)

As you can see the gorgeous Gaga has a full head of colour, however, last time I dyed my hair I got told by my manager to 'get rid' - so this time I made sure I didn't do the whole hair and only parts:

These pictures don't do it justice, my bangs look a more grey colour and the sides with a little more of a lilac tint. I love it! I wanna do my whole head but I'm giving it the boss test-run tomorrow.

I used "Virgin Snow" by Manic Panic (which is actually a toner) you can pick it up HERE at Hairbomb, who give very good customer service and fast delivery.

What colour have you dyed your hair before? What colour do you want to dye it?
