new hair

for the past year i've been desperately trying to get closer to my natural hair color... from years of dying it black.. my hair struggled to an extreme amount to get to this point.. the first couple of attempts.. it has ended in my hair being multiple shades of red/ orange/ blonde/ brown... all at the same time on different areas of my head and after 3 times of bleaching and stripping it out.. i'm beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

this picture makes my hair look a little red... but i swear its not.. (nothing wrong with red hair) but i've been desperately trying to drown out the natural red in my hair. so i'm anti-red on myself. lol

the top picture is almost exactly what it looks like in real life... despite taking the pic at night time in the basement light.

amen. i love it.
