Description Curled up my rainbow... and forgive my face, please. I was in a rush to get somewhere but really wanted a picture of my hair, just didn't have time to get a *perfect* picture.

----------------------------------------------------

The Brief How To:
** Bleach hair to pale yellow at the top and light brown or lighter at the bottom first. **
Separate your hair into chunks (I had mine divided into probably about 20 sections).
Doing one section at a time, apply red to the roots.
Next, apply a large section of yellow. Use your fingers to rub upwards into some of the red (will create orange).
After that, apply a large section of blue. Again, use your fingers to rub the blue upwards into the yellow (be careful with this part, blue easily stains and overpowers yellow).
Purple comes next, did the majority of what was left of my strand of hair leaving about an inch or two at the very bottom to apply the pink over. Used my fingers to spread pink up into the purple and purple up into the blue.
Once you're done with the section, wrap it up in foil (this traps the moisture in and keeps the dye wet - dye is most active while wet, so that's what the purpose of this is).

** I left mine in overnight (about 12 hours total). Rinse out under cold water... style as usual, and voila! **

Just wondering, did you have any problems with the colors bleeding into eachother when you washed your hair?

They do run into each other a little bit, but I dye my hair with that in mind. For instance, I will put yellow next to blue so that when they bleed it makes green... or turquoise next to pink, so they bleed and make purple. Just some simple color theory will go a long way with color placement.

Thank you!!

I am too scared to dye my hair properly again - because of the damn roots that grow out and my fear that i won't be able to die that section well again! Do you have a tip for redying roots properly without affecting the rest of the coloured hair?
Yours is really amazing!!!

Haha, thank you and no worries. I don't think I said what my natural color is... it's like a medium copper brown. I bleach it using 30 vol developer to get it light enough for vibrant colors.

Aww It makes me sad to hear how many schools are so strict about such a silly thing. I was lucky that my school (and now my job) let me have all the wonderful colors.

Though I'm out of school now, I'm lucky enough that my job does allow (and even enjoys) it! I did also dye my hair when I was in school, though it was usually only purple and pink streaks, so not quite as - um - obnoxious?

Thank you!
