Okay, so, I have tried something a bit wild. You guys know I’m always up for trying new things, right? Well, this time I went and dyed my hair blue! Yeah, you heard that right – blue. I’ve been seeing this trend all over, and I just had to give it a shot myself. I will tell you all about my little adventure.
First off, I spent a good chunk of time just looking for inspiration. I scrolled through tons of pictures online, trying to figure out what kind of blue I wanted. There are just so many shades! Did I want something dark and mysterious like midnight blue? Or something bright and electric? Decisions, decisions. And it wasn’t just about the color, I also had to think about the style. I usually wear my hair combed back, so I had to see how that would look with blue hair. Also, I should consider my skin tone, warm or cool, to make the blue hair fit better.
After a lot of back and forth, I finally settled on this really cool, vibrant blue. I thought it would be a fun change, and, well, it definitely is! Once I had the color picked out, I had to find a good place to get it done. I didn’t really trust myself to do it at home – imagine the mess! So, I asked around and found this salon that had great reviews. The stylist there was super experienced with bold colors, which made me feel a lot better.
The day of the appointment came, and I was a mix of nervous and excited. Sitting in that chair, watching the stylist mix the color, I did have a moment of “What am I doing?” But it was too late to turn back! The process itself was pretty long. First, they had to lighten my hair, which took a while. My hair is naturally dark, so this was expected. Then came the blue! Seeing that bright color on my head was a bit of a shock at first, I won’t lie. I started to do my hair to see the effect and prepared to accept the reality.
Once it was all done and dried, I was actually really happy with how it turned out. It’s definitely a statement, and it’s been getting a lot of attention. Some people love it, some people are a bit surprised, but overall, the reactions have been pretty positive. I tried to show people I am a creative guy. It’s been fun experimenting with different styles, too. I found that the blue really pops when I slick it back, but it also looks cool when I let it do its own thing. My hair is kind of curly, and the blue makes the curls stand out even more.
Here are some things I learned from this whole experience:
- Do your research! Look at lots of pictures and find a shade and style you really like.
- Go to a professional. Unless you’re really experienced with dyeing hair, it’s best to leave it to someone who knows what they’re doing.
- Be prepared for maintenance. Bright colors like this fade, so you’ll need to touch it up every few weeks.
- Embrace the change! It’s just hair, it’ll grow back. Have fun with it and don’t be afraid to express yourself.
So, yeah, that’s my blue hair story. It’s been a fun ride, and I’m glad I did it. If you’re thinking about trying a bold color, I say go for it! Just be prepared for a bit of an adventure.
