Wave ya hands in tha air if ya just don't care

I've had an ongoing obsession with purple hair since my hairstylist (AKA my little big sister, Ali) gave my friend and I in high school a tube of purple hair colour. It didn't turn out as cool as we thought it would because I had red hair and she had dark brown hair at the time. But, being in a small town, we felt pretty badass. A little rebellious, if you will. 

Well... a few years later it took a turn for the worse (or in my opinion, the best)...







Over the years, I've had various forms of purple in my hair. The first picture is my natural hair in all it's glory. I added some ombre, threw it some purple, grew out my ombre, went platinum, added some purple roots, and then one day, BAM... pastel prettiness.

So. In. Love.

For those of you who are wondering, I use Joico's demi-permenant purple hair colour. Joico is a fantastic line, and usually what I use in my hair for any colouring. In the past I didn't mix it with anything, but to achieve this light colour, I had to mix about a teaspoon of colour in with a cup or two of conditioner. 

I am so ecstatic. I have wanted this for about a year. Next week I'll be posting about how it (hopefully) got me a job... just waiting on the results. But I have a really good feeling, keep your fingers crossed for me!

Call a Purple People Eater, a Smurf (even though they're blue), a grape, or whatever you want... I am so in love with my pastel purple hair, and I just don't caaare!
