Directions dye review.

After having my blonde bits added I decided to just keep the bits that the hairdresser did, and then I added colour to my hair.
I decided on using Directions dye in Carnation Pink, on the samples in the shop it was a really bright pink, so I toned it down with conditioner to make it more of a pastel pink.... but it faded really really quickly..and within 4 days it had pretty much faded to a stained blonde.
This led me to dye it again but without using the conditioner, and it came out a lot brighter, not quite the pastel shade I originally wanted but I liked it anyway.

Blonde Dye.

So I got my hair dyed. It was supposed to be dip-dyed, or Ombre, but my hairdresser ended up just dip dyeing the main under-layers. Therefore you just see flashes of the blonde and small tips.
Even though it wasn't quite what I was thinking, I really like it, especially because I have curly hair so it all mixes in. However I think I might get some bleach and do the tips of the other layers and blend it up a little more... I'm not sure yet....
