Going back to my roots

It's been about 12 years since I last had my natural hair color. I think Julius was two-years old, or almost two-years old, when I first dyed it red. The reason was because of lack of sleep.

My son was a terrible sleeper and I was always looking so tired. With my pale skin and dark hair, every day at least a handful of people would ask "are you okay?" "what's wrong?" "are you sick?" "you look tired." And no amount of make up would help. so I decided to lighten my hair color and the results were immediate.

After that, I just enjoyed being a red head. Then I went brown. Then burgundy. I tried a bunch of different shades of red for years...and then almost two years ago I took the plunge and went purple. It was so much fun. For about two years I tried new, bright and wild colors that I had always wanted but never had the courage to try. Color Splat saved the day with their easy to use product and amazing results.

Then I decided to go blonde and that was a challenge (as you can read in my previous posts). When September came around I decided to go for my fall color: reddish brown. But the past bleach in my hair kept causing the color to fade early.

So today, as I stood in front of the hair color aisle, my husband asked me if I was ever planning to go back to my original hair color. Hmm. There was a thought. It would certainly save on buying hair dye every time my roots would start growing in.

No time to dwell. When it comes to hair choices I often decide on impulse. It makes for happier moments in my opinion. I grabbed L'oreal Paris Multi-Faceted Feria: Bright Black and took the boxes (I need two for my thick hair) and (obviously paid for them) went home.


The funny thing is, I bought Bright Black, and yet my hair had other plans. It usually does.

so it's more of a brown-gold-black-blue color thing going on.

It's always an adventure when playing around with my hair!

It's been nine weeks in lockdown and we were getting tired of the same food...the kids wanted something different. So thanks to Google E...
