Garnier OLIA hair dye - Carmin Reds (6.66) - Review


I tried a lot of color but this is the first time that I'm dyeing my hair in red! I was on my way to buy a normal dark brown dye but I saw this box of Carmin Reds and I just couldn't resist! 




Before:




So I had like a two toned hair style in light blonde/black. I'm only dyeing the blonde part, and I'm supposed to get the same red as on the package.



After:





The color looks better in real life. 
It turned out pretty well, it's actually a deep red with a bit of deep pink undertone.
The thing is on this 'after' picture, I just got my shampoo done so I didn't really had to brush my hair or anything since my hair are really straight naturally.. But I noticed something that happened few days after I have dyed my hair: whenever I have trying to curl/straighten my hair, the color would fade away.



This is few days after when I tried to use the hair straightener.
I only straightened the tips of my hair and they turned into orange!! O_O
THE COLOR CAME OFF DIRECLTY WITH THE STRAIGHTENER.
This is the first time of my life seeing that, considering that I've been dying my hair for 5-6 years.
(So far, it looks like a tie dye so.. ok)





This is 2 months after my coloring, after straightening them various time the orange turned into blonde... (well, since I was blonde from the beginning..)
I also noticed that my hair became a bit dry and a bit damaged. 
I can't help and think that this is because of the dye. :'(
(I cut all my hair 2 years ago so my hair are pretty much.. brand new.) 


Overall: 3/5
- The color is really pretty
- The color doesn't go away after shampooing! The color is pretty tough overall if you forget the straightener incident.
- It smells really good (lol)

- The color probably won't last long on bleached hair from what I understood..
- Avoid using straightner/curler especially when you have bleached hair
- Damage your hair compared to bubble dye!

Cosplay Tutorial - How to make Judal bracelets/bangle?

Image
Since I'm not in mood to finish my math homework, I'm gonna share my super tutorial that I made infew minutes ! Judal's cosplay is nor hard: cropped top and harlem pants.  The point are his bracelets and his necklace/choker.  First I thought about buying some PVC bracelets in gold, I found them on Ebay for a fair price but they were too large for my wrists and I need 20 of them, which is quite.. impressive. Plus, I need a choker with the same color and material. Obviously I couldn't buy some...  First thing I did was to buy some gold vinyl fabric: (don't mind the lace, it's for my Doll cosplay) Then I pondered for many months, what should I use? Should I fill it like with a plush? Should I buy some rope to fill it? ... Neither of them seem to be a nice solution... Then I came across something nice! Close enough? :D I don't know what it's called, but it's made of foam, so super light and easy to cut! It's some...

ETUDE HOUSE - Salon Cream Hair Coloring [Vanilla Gold Brown] - Review

Image
My journey to have light colored hair without bleaching ... Part that I've forgotten to post earlier. :( Since my roots were getting longer, I thought that it would be the timing to do another hair coloring. I did this coloration after weeks after I tried out Missha Sand Brown color . This time I picked ' Vanilla Gold Brown ' color from Etude House's cream dyes. This is how my hair looks like before the coloration . Black roots, a mix of blonde/remaining of red coloration (please don't mind my bare face) * * * After the coloration . My roots came out much lighter! There is still a bit of reddish brown but it's not really that visible. Overall : - Very good coverage - Long lasting             - The dye doesn't smell bad - Less easy to apply than a bubble dye (obviously) The color turned out quite prettily, even though it's more like a dark blonde than gold brown I gues...
