D.I.Y Ombre

Helloo all :) After pondering for ages about dyeing my hair I finally went ombre, yay! For those of you who don't know what that is where have you been hiding? Lol :P Its a graduation in tone of colour, this look has been around a couple of years now and still going strong and a look I am loving not only in hair but everything! 

L'Oreal Perfect Blonde Creme Highlight Kit- £6.12

After looking at tons of pictures of ombre hair and watching numerous YouTube videos I decided to try it out and wanted to do it myself as this way I could achieve the exact look I wanted. I went to buy dye but the only highlight kit I found was blonde! I know what you're all thinking but hey I made it work. Although the ombre look works best with a contrasting colour on your origional hair colour. I wanted a light brown so for this I just left the dye in for less time than stated on the instructions. Before doing this its a must to read the instructions!! 

After reading the instructions and mixing the dye I started to dye the ends of my hair. I put on a balck bin liner so it would not get onto my clothes and used foil to wrap around the parts that had dye on to keep the colour intact on my hair and not get everywhere. I left the dye on in my hair for a total of 20 minutes and this is how mine turned out, am pretty pleased with the results but if I was to do it again I would probably go a bit higher up so it shows more but happy for my first D.I.Y ombre :D Already excited to do it again but not straight away as this has really dried up the ends of my hair since the dye does contain a lot of bleach.

Enjoy :D
