Re: [lace-chat] Hair dye

2006-06-19 Thread Susan MacLeod
A few years ago, I decided I wanted red hair.  So I got the least 
expensive kit I found at the store, and dyed my hair.  Since then, I 
have noticed that as it grows out, there is quite a lot of gray in 
the roots. so I just keep on dying it.  I like having red hair, and 
don't feel ready to go gray.  I use Garnier brand, and it works 
well, hasn't damaged my hair that I can see.

[lace-chat] Hair Dye

2006-06-19 Thread Elizabeth Ligeti

I had my first grey hairs at 9 years old!
It has slowly turned from dark brown to white - and it has taken 70 years to 
get it This white - so I don't colour it at all!!  :))
I did try going blonde once - but wound up with carrotty coloured hair - 
which did not suit me at all!!!


I use a purple-y coloured shampoo to try to keep it white and eliminate that 
horrid yellowy tinge.


The sad part is that due to blood-pressure medication, it no longer holdsa a 
perm - they drop out within a few weeks, so I have just had it cut short - 
and am trying it out as straight hair!  Not sure that I like it too much, 
but it is easier to cope with that growing it long - which I was trying to 
do!  I got it down to shoulder length - then  Yuk!!! I Have to get it 
cut!!  :))

[lace-chat] Hair dye

2006-06-18 Thread Jean Nathan
Not something I've ever been into. At 63 my hair is now naturally darker 
than when I was 20 (still have a hairpiece which matched then for 
comparison). Both my brothers are white, but I take after my mother who 
still only had about a dozen grey hairs when she died. I'd love to go grey.


I'd never dye it. Even though I'd never thought about it, I was put off 
completely when we had our horses at the local livery stables, and one of 
the mothers, who used a non-permanent hair dye, stood in the rain with black 
hair dye running down her face. Total embarrassment. I am as nature 
intended.

ladies.

[lace-chat] hair dye

2006-06-18 Thread Melinda Weasenforth
Ok,

I am one who dyes my hair, but there is now more gray than brown so I go
blond, it blends much better.  When I was younger I always got a lot of red
tones (that I hated) it seems to me that there is something out on the market
that is supposed to help lose the brassiness when you dye your hair.  Have you
tried looking it up online?Ash is good, but will give you a green tint.

My two cents,

I always swore I'd bleach my hair when it got to that ugly
half-and-half stage.  Alas, it turns out that when you
bleach my dark hairs, they turn red.

I wish I'd known that when I was eighteen . . .
