What the UNH!?

A little glimpse into her Turban'd head
I ombre’d! Finally. Dark haired girls, you needn’t feel like this look it out of reach. After an afternoon of voracious YouTubing and blog reading, I felt like my DIY Ombre education was complete. I used two box dyes: L’Oreal Excellence Blonde Supreme (Extra Light Ash Blonde) for the first pass and L’Oreal SUPER BLONDE (Bleach Blonde) on the tips - both of which are not recommended for use on dark brown hair, but don’t listen. I just followed the instructions on both of the boxes. Got ahead of myself and mixed the bleach solution wrong (forgot the creme), but I think it was a happy accident in the end - as it kept my ends from being Barbie-blonde. That said, do not be afraid of the hair color on the box; even if mixed properly, it will never be that light. The take-away: The at-home-ombre is easy. So, go get your fade on. :)
