OMBRE? Okay!

I finally caved to the trend. I've wanted to dip dye my hair for what seems like forever and this weekend I actually did! 

After 5 months my relationship with my brown hair was starting to wither, so a spur of the moment trip to Boots could only mean one thing. Things were gonna change.

My hair is a little too dark to just go straight back to my previous golden blonde - I don't want to actually destroy my hair, you see - and I really am quite fond of being brunette, I just needed to spice things up a bit. 

This is why I found myself an hour or so later in my bedroom with my housemate covering my tips in the heavily advertised L'oréal Préference Wild Ombres dip dyes - I used No. 1 for 'dark brown hair'. 

I have to admit I absolutely love the effect, although it is hard to apply with the 'easy comb' brush - I found it much easier to use my fingers and blend it all - but the change totally put that spring back in my step.  

So here it is! My new blonde tipped hair is definitely brighter for Spring - whenever Spring would like to actually arrive, sooner rather than later please, it SNOWED yesterday - and although my Dad failed to notice it was any different (typical man thing though, right?) I love it!

Let me know what you guys think/if you still love the ombre trend!
