It was the most perfect lazy Sunday, snuggled up with the cat, a cup of Earl Grey and the cast of hollyoaks. Making plans of an evening in the bath, scrubbing, shaving, plucking, deep conditioning,  ultimately emerging a complete Goddess. hmmmmm.

I have this habit of spending far too much time on FashionSpace /MySpace /Facebook /Youtube  browsing through pages of style blogs and fashion related websites. I can spend hours lost in pages, profiles, pictures, photos. I find it completely inspiring – my boyfriend calls it plain nosey.

On this particular Sunday, everywhere I looked were amazing blonde hair styles! Dragging myself to the mirror, I frowned as my dull blonde hair stared back. No amount of bath time pampering was going to get rid of those crappy dark roots!

And so came the mistake.

Hidden away in the depths of my bathroom,

A bottle of bleach.

With a note “NEVER  USE ME”

… And so I used it!

I am now Ginger!

And NOT in a sexy Jessica Rabbit or Nicole Kidman kind of way. Nowhere near. I can think of at least 2 other times I have been fooled by the colour of the beauty on the box. And those were 2 other delightful times I have had to fork out my hard earned cash to get it corrected.

My Advice?

NEVER USE BLONDE DYES FROM THE BOX…get it done professionally!
