Hey sweety this is my 3rd attempt at leaving a comment here dunno but my comment times out.

Anyway, I wanted to tell you that you look gorgeous and I love that little fur shrug, the boots are killer The show looks fun and cute, BTW I always carry flats now since my feet have been abused with heels over the yrs so I have to change into flats after events.

Hope all is well with you, much love always,
Glendy <3

Awesome – thanks so much for the hair tip. When I was all over purple I’d only wash once a week and just spritz and blowdry the rest of the time. I’m trying to keep it to 3 times a week max now but having platinum on top, the grease starts to show. I did a mix of purple, pink, and blue this last time for a richer purple – next time I’m going to do it myself and as you suggested, leave it for a few hours. I’ve also heard that rinsing with cider-vinegar the first few washes can keep color in.

I didn’t think they’d make a difference, but insoles are a god-send. Those boots look like they’d kill me otherwise. (Although, they are quite hot.)

Thanks Sheena & Alicia! I’ll like the boots a lot more after I get some Dr. Scholl’s to fix ‘em up for my feetsies some!

Alli – I’ve used mousse and blowdrying before, but it tends to completely kill my curl for some reason and the mousse REALLY drys out my hair. : / That’s the problem I keep running in to is that most of the big hair methods are somewhat damaging, and I’m really careful about what I do to my hair because of the color treating.

Re: color – I use Special Effects, but I’ve found their colors very very hit or miss for me. Atomic Pink lasts for ages on everyone else (I’ve seen it last six months on my friends), but it fades within a month or so with me. The purple is a 50/50 mix of Pimpin’ Purple and Deep Purple, and it bleeds TERRIBLY for the first two weeks or so, but it sticks fairly well. I leave it on for probably 2-3 hours before washing it out, and I only shampoo my hair every 3 days or so (I control greasies with baby powder, and my hair doesn’t really get greasy until the third day anyways). Let me know if there’s anything else you need to know!

This looks like so much fun. I love big hair! It used to be my default going out ‘do (years ago when my hair was about your length) – have you tried doing the mousse and blowdry trick? Always worked wonders for me.
On a hair-related note, what do you use for your color (if you don’t mind divulging) – my hairdresser and I use Special Effects for my purple/pink but find that it washes out of the ends/back of my hair so quickly that it’s almost not worth using. Manic Panic has also been a bust – any helpful hints on keeping color in will be greatly appreciated. (Yours looks so fresh in each post).

I love your outfit and how you styled it! I especially love those boots. Looks like Fashion Freakout was a lot of fun and the models look like they are having a total blast and working it! .-= Sheena ´s last blog ..Bookends =-.
