Hair dying?

So, i often dye my hair pretty rainbowy colors. I use this brand Adore, and just found out it has collagen :-\ I was wondering if anyone knows of any cheap, good, animal friendly hair dye brands? (NOT manic panic, bleh, i hate manic panic) I get like a 4oz thing of Adore for 5 bucks. Eh.. Stupid hair dye
I might. hmm.
I want to do it NOW. hmph.
sarah, can you do like....do an under layer of you hair so it's not reallllly noticeable unless you pull it up? and maybe like... a pastel color? Maybe after you've been at the job a bit you can get away with it...
My under layer of hair is longer than my top layer. Times tons. My hair is really weird right now though, i'll probably get it cut then figure out what i'm doing with it.
But i'm for reals doing it for the break at least.
But the job is at a middle school where kids have to tuck in shirts and wear nice pants and only school shirts and wear ids and theres bars on doors. And they're crazy, when i went there and they were less strict kids got suspended for a color that was slightly off or if their pants were too big. So idk about anything. I think i'll see if they say anything about my ear gauges first and go from there.
man girl.... why you wanna work in hell? Cuz that's what that is. CRAZY conservative....Hopefully you can find somethin else that doesn't suck out your soul.
Hah. yeah fufu. They just got really strict. I went there though, the people and teachers were always super nice about like everything.
I guess i'll find out how it really is now when i get there.
Its just a 2 hour 3 times a week thing. so i can still look for another job while i'm doing this one.
So. I have pink hair.
like your whole head?
Yupp.
It didnt take evenly. Hmmmph.
But its pink.
Pictures will come.
Pictures will come.
YES, PLEASE. :>
In other news, I'm using a combination of henna and indigo to dye my hair black tonight.
This is the third time I've ever dyed my hair (previous experiences include magenta manic panic for RHPS), and it will be the most drastic change to my hair yet. ...and I'm even going to give my hair a little trim so's to match this look:

..for the REPO! shadowcast performance this weekend.
Right now I look like this:

...and I'm shooting for screen accuracy.
I use Affinage Colour Dynamics.
They don't test on animals and they're certified Cruelty-Free.
It's a professional hairdressing dye, and It last about 5 weeks before needing a re-colour.
I would dye my hair to this blonde, then colour over-top.

And this is their Manic Magenta, with a streak of Green Envy.

*SQUUUUUUUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE* I love it ~^_^~
so pretty, Sarah!
so pretty, Sarah!

CW, you definitely need to give us some photos of your full costume after you're done! Solid effort on the accuracy : )
Shaz, that is an awesome green, and cool it stays looking good for so long. I'm no a dye-er myself, but I know vibrant colours don't tend to stick around very long before fading madly.
Sarah, mad cute, as always. and I like your cut too! : )
Aveda! Buuuut Idk if they have pretty rainbow colors :( When I was at the salon they had a board with all their dyes they had and I remember seeing dark blue, dark purple, and red.
And oww, the haircut, i trimmed it up quick right before that picture. I'm pretty stoked that i didn't totally mess it up. Haha.
Sarah, I am loving the shade, it looks like a fluro/flamingo pink. Looove it!
So when i went back to where i got the hairdye to look at other colors. They finally had the little samples of it up. And apparentlyyy i got light pink, and theres others that are actually as bright as in that last picture. It faded super fast, and now i know why. Haha. Oh well.
I dyed it tonight though. Its orange, i was just going to do streaks but then i started putting in yellow/red/pink/orange all over so its kind of multicolored but it all blends together. Heres a crappy cell phone picture of it.

...welllll, if I'd really gone all-out for accuracy, I'd have found or made that outfit in purple instead of gray, but eh... ;)

I'm still waiting for someone to post photos from the show onto facebook. I'll be sure to share them once they do!
....... and for the record, I consider this length to be "entirely too short" for me.
