I dyed

So I finally got bored enough tonight to actually dye my hair.

Here's the before shot (excuse my in-a-ponytail-all-day hair and crappy old-lady bathroom).

I obviously lack self-portrait skills.

The Samy Fat Foam dye I had was kind of fun to use. My color is deep cherry brown, in case you forgot. You mix the dye up in a shaker thingy, and it comes out as a nice, light foam. It was also a pretty mauve color. Not that that's relevant to anything. I thought it was easy enough to apply and wasn't very drippy, which was awesome because it prevented me from making a huge, irreparable mess in my bathroom. I also really liked putting it on by hand instead of using a damn dye bottle; seemed far less messy that way.

Here's my in-progress shot (complete with extra views of my crappy bathroom. Whee!).

While I waited for my color to develop, I cleaned my bathroom. I didn't bother to take pictures of that. You're welcome.

Freshly dyed and rinsed. It looks awfully...um...black...

I did a quick blow dry (probably not my wisest choice at 10:30 at night), and here's what resulted:

Um, it's dark. Like, really dark. I can't say I hate it, but I'm not sure I like it. I have a feeling it will grow on me (at least that's what I'm hoping).

My only real complaint is that my hair came out feeling super dry and straw-like. Part of that could be from my new medicine, though. For whatever reason, my hair has been awful since I started taking that stuff.

I know my pictures are craptastic, but what do you think?
