Yep, it was, but I'm back now.

Hehe, Mocha, I did say that. If they want a mohawk or dye it purple, well, it'll grow back normal some day!

Still no pics, but I did talk to my friend and we'll be getting it evened out when I have time to run her to the salon. Kota's spent the week with it up in different pony tails (think she enjoys doing it herself) so it isn't noticable that it's totally crooked, lol.

I got a text message from my son today warning me that he got his hair cut and I would be shocked. Then he had the nerve to tell me that it was only hair and would grow back! I, of course, banned him from my phone! (And yes, he got a mohawk!)

LOL, Merry, sorry. Over the summer a couple of my nephews got mohawks and by the time school started a couple and a half months later, their hair had grown back in enough for decent school haircuts.

Lol Merrysea! I don't allow mohawks in my home though. I'm very lenient but not with that.

well I figured he's not in school or anything yet and still cute enough. His hair grows so freakin' fast anyway!!
The summer before my husband buzzed D's hair bald! Now that made me cry when I first saw it.

Ok, couple pics of Kota's hair. Fair warning, they aren't the best pics of her hair...I took them at the park when we were practicing her hitting and throwing so she's sweaty and in one wearing a helmet.

Our hair dresser friend was at my aunts today cutting her hair, so she straightened up Kota's while we were there. Now it's straight, lol.

Well, it is cute except if the hair is attached to the helmet, and then that may not be such a good look.



ummmmmmmmmmm ... none of the parties involved here are mods or anything, are they?

Er, I never thought I'd be in this thread asking for advice for myself. I'm so not into hair, make up, clothes type stuff.

I'm a natural redhead, was actually born with bright orange hair that luckily toned down somewhat pretty quickly. It's gotten much lighter over the years, to the point some people say it's blond...it's not, might be light but it's red. Not the problem though.

Couple years ago my bil pointed out a few grey hairs. Wasn't too concerned...my grandma was completely grey at 21, mom and her sister both were dyeing their hair (mom's red, her sister brunette) by the time they were 18, and my sis has been dyeing since she was around 20. That was one family curse I seemed to escape, mostly. Not too long ago, Caleb was pointing out how he knew he was taller than I was cuz he could see all the grey hair. I thought he was joking, more along the lines of the hairy gnome jokes.

The other day I was brushing my hair and looked in the mirror and almost fell over. OMG, the grey is out of control. On the lucky side, I guess is that with the lighter color of my hair, you can't really see it unless you're looking for it. On the bad side, the only thing I've ever been vain about is my hair.

What do I do???? I really don't know if I wanna get into the whole dyeing thing, I wouldn't mind a shade or two darker red but I really don't want anything drastic and would actually be perfectly happy just to get it back to the color the rest of it is. Is there some kind of wash to use? How do I know what to get???

I know I could ask sis or my hair dresser friend but both of them want me to go really red, something I'm not comfy with. I'd be perfectly happy to go buy something myself (if I knew what to buy) and go hand it to one of them to put in my hair. I'm just not really into anything drastic...I've never put a bunch of chemicals into it (or any) and I don't even blow dry it unless I have to go out when it's freezing cold. Other than that it's shampoo and cream rinse and air dry.

heck War, it's easy. Just be careful about the color you choose becauce then you have a mess.

I've found that preference by Loreal "cream" is the best. I've got my color - light brown - & all I want is grey color up too. I do it every other month & it's a piece of cake. You can do it yourself too.

If your hair is naturally a light red leaning a little blonde, then you would prob. want to buy the light strawberry blonde kit.

I'm not a high maint. girl either - but, that dang grey has to go - at least until it becomes more than the original hair color lol!

I know what look you want - you don't want folks looking at you because something's dif. Well, if you can find the perfect color for you with this stuff, you get your grey colored & don't get funny looks!

heck, I just did mine yesterday. My boss told me I looked so refreshed today! (if he only knew lol)

Yep, that's the look I want. Sis just dyed hers last week a burgandy/black (catch her in the right light and it looks almost purple) but that's pretty much her style to have color that's so dark and different. Little "adopted" sis did the same, though the other way, she went from a golden blond to almost bleached white, again, thats her style to go so drastic. Not so much mine. I wouldn't mind a shade darker but certainly nothing to make people look at me and go "Whoa, what did you do?"

Mostly though I'm just concerned about covering up the grey. I'll be 36 this year, yay for me (seriously, I don't mind getting older,) the worry/squint/laugh lines I earned every one of em, but don't mess with my hair dammit! Couple grey hairs are kinda funny, a whole bunch not so much.

I might invite sis to go shopping with me with strict instructions, lol, to help pick a good color. I'll probably have her do it at least the first time just to make sure its not beyond me. I still have vivid memories of the great waxing disaster (on my leg, no dirty thoughts!) when I tried to do that myself.

I also use L'Oreal Preference and am not a "hair" person (uhhhhhhhhh ... don't anybody tell anybody I was in here; I am banned from this thread). I use the box that says Paris. It is pretty much a cream after you mix it. Anyway, it is very easy to do it yourself, especially if you have short hair. Just follow the instructions inside the box.

As for the color, it might be easier for Wardog already being a redhead. The problem for me is trying NOT to turn my hair red, which any of the golden shades do. I have settled finally on dark ash brown, which turns a medium, NOT dark brown on me. Wardog, I would just pick a lightish red like Texasdeb suggests, and try it. You most likely will NOT turn your hair green, and after all, it's just hair ... L'Oreal Preference in a light red is not going to do anything drastic to your hair. Probably. Heehee.

LOL, thanks Juju. I love green, not so sure I'd like my hair green though.

I was reading last night about dyeing hair, and one thing I kept seeing was that red is a very hard color to set. I'm not sure if they meant for natural redheads or those who were dyeing a different color red.

War, I can tell you as a redhead, try a non-permanent color first like Natural Instincts. It lasts through about 30 washes. Get one that's closest to your natural color. I think the one I used was Spiced Tea. You'll love it and even if you don't its not permanent.

Heh, well I asked sis to help me with it and she looked at me horrified and demanded to know what color I planned on screwing my hair up with, lol. No, no, I don't plan on changing colors, just cover up the grey and maybe a shade darker, but that's it. She said she still wouldn't do it, going to call our hair dresser friend, she can help pick out the right color (or mix it?,) she'll put it in, and come to your house. Sounds like so much more hassle than I was looking for, lol. Though now she does have me worried about getting the right color!
