I hate my hair - rant thread

[kissablekae]

i dyed my hair black a month ago, it has faded a lil bit but barely noticeable in photos, it still looks jet black with the white shine to it! tomorrow im going to lighten it to medium brown then do blonde highlights! im soo excited! i had that look for one month last april, i miss it so much. i have really fair skin so i love having lighter hair but for some reason ive been going darker and darker..which is fine but black is the darkest ive had it and its a pain in the a** cuz im soo pale.

theses nothing wrong with dark hair and pale skin but its not for me. i feel like lighter hair warms up my complexion and makes me glow then less makeup is required to look 'good'.

also, i love Kerastase Nuitrive Bain Satin 3 Shampoo but i dont know if i will be going back to it this time. whenever i lighten my hair i like to get moisturzing products but i dont know if i should try something else. any suggestions? also would purple shampoo be good for the blonde highlights, if so which brand is good. (i dont blow dry/straighten or heat style but im serious about good moisturizing products because i color my hair regularly)

I dyed my hair blonde yesterday from light brown. I used to always be very blonde, but somehow my color kept getting darker when I would go to the stylist. Anyway, yesterday my roots ended up orange! Today my hair is strawberry blonde, which I just hate on me. I am at work, but I want to crawl under my desk and hide.

my hair was dyed black with a lil bit of light brown on the bottom. yesterday i dyed it back to medium ash brown and it went well! it looks really natural, even at the roots where its grown out for a month(not noticable growth but when you dye, natural hair reacts differently to already dyed hair). im so happy that it turned out good because i was sick of black hair and now if the hair dye wasnt strong enough and stayed black i wouldnt be able to do the blonde highlights today.

^ i fixed my hair. i thought my hair was okay now but i was wrong! ugh my best friend was in town this weekend so of course we took some photos..after seeing the photos..i think i need to change my hair again! *AHHH!* i swear no hair color works for me but im not ready to shave it all off(jk)

i'm going to join the rant.....i'm starting to get very frustrated with my hair....

i cut it short almost 8 weeks ago now but it's grown out just enough to lose it's shape....
it's getting hard to style and just seems to 'flop'.....

time to go back to the hairdresser.....asap

I'm Asian, but I have pale skin (except now I have a tan which will fade in a few weeks) and I have black hair... But I think it's so boring. It's shoulder-length.
Can I dye it any color that will look good? Auburn?

I would love Asian hair because you can cut it into amazing styles and it holds. The girls at my uni with the best hair are Asian

Shade's of brown would probably look good, though it depends on how noticable you want it to be.

Yea, I'd kill to have your hair.

oh god i got a haircut a couple days ago and its a bit shorter and more layered than i would like it to be and today my boyfriend told me i look like my mom with my new haircut......not exactly the right thing to say to me...

Really?! Maybe he didn't mean it in a bad way...Do you plan on fixing it somehow or just letting it grow out?

Tom is the first day of school and I have no clue as to what to do with my hair. It's really crazy right now!

I am sure it isn't as bad as you think. Guys can be so dense with their comments. If it makes you feel better, my hair turned green a few weeks ago (it is no fixed, thank God), and my BF and I were in Coldstone getting icecream. He ordered mint chocolate chip because he said it matched the color of my hair. Nice.

^ haha thanks guys. well right now i have no clue what to do with it so i've just been sporting a pony until it grows back. usually my hair grows relatively fast and so i pray this time it wont fail me!

I hate my hair so much now. It's just long and boring. I mean I cut it into layers but, I dunno. It's just boring, dull and flat.

 

[i_<3_chanel]

rant rant rant!
my hair is long . . to the small of my back. heavily layered
& i'm bored. i want something with more body & shape around my face, crown etc. but i don't want to lose the length (at least not tooo much of it!)
i just know i'll have to get it cut short to get the shape i want . .
can't win?!

 

[Tinetush]

More ranting.., I hate my hair right now as well.
It's curly and semi long, and I have bangs. I want it to be longer, more Keri Russel-ish.
I hate that I have to use 15 minutes before leaving my apartment to flatten my hair to avoid looking like a poodle who has just had wild sex.

Argh. !

speaking from another asian from hk (although a natural brunette), it really depends on the hair texture and the style u are going after. u can do few streaks (with shocking hair if it is pin stright, not so straight with shades of brown), vary shades of brown over the hair, reds and a subtle purple (not burgundy!) might work too...

still hate mine......

but it's so hot i can't wear it down anyway.....

My boyfriend told me this after i cut my hair short last time.

So now i'm growing it. I'm getting a "trim" on Sunday. I don't really trust hairdressers though

 

[rebellion]

I have really thick hair and I want a shorter cut, but I hate all the extra volume. Any suggestions?

I'm growing out my bangs.

...enough said.
