The brighter red will be very very bright at the roots and darker toward the ends where the old dye resides. You're pretty much tossing bleach on it, I think. I just had my hair alternately bleached/dyed black and had the purple tossed on top. It looks pretty cool. Maybe try a bleach kit to put in some highlights and then toss a demi on top?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I have filing to do too, and lots of other equally boring and distasteful tasks and then I have to drive three hours to help a student write an appeal letter, and then I have my women's bible study group. But right now I doubt I am doing any of that; instead I am lying under my cool sheets hoping the ibuprofen kicks in soon. Did I mention how I hate cramps? Oh, right, that was in Bitches. But I do. I really really do. Chill out, body, we are not having children and it's ok!

You make me happy when skies are gray.
No, seriously, you do. Unfortunately, I've been earwormed with You Are My Sunshine.

News Flash re hair coloring: I am growing my grey in! FOR REAL THIS TIME.
I am now on a status call for the next hour. Only work I've done today. And it's not a call I'm expected to contribute anything but my ears to. I guess I should clean up my email box or something? (Filing that doesn't tear up my fingers like old-fashioned filing does.)

That sounds incredibly complicated. But highlights would be nice. I don't think I know what a demi means.
I always forget that the roots will dye to a different color. Blergh. My hair has been almost all gray since I was like... 18. We have really fantastic genes in that department, clearly.

Semi permanent. It "washes out" in 24 washes. Really, it sticks to the ends no matter what you do.

I strongly support this! For one thing, you'll save a lot of time & money.

I'll take a look at some of the dye kits with the highlights involved, maybe. It's probably too complicated for me, though, I've always counted myself lucky that I can actually manage to dye it myself. I have been known to accidentally dye my ears purple.
(Speaking of purple, I also accidentally dyed my hair purple once. It was amazingly awesome. Sadly I don't think Princess Cruises would be OK with purple hair)

I finally signed up for Mint.com. Whooooa, so weird to see all that information in one place. Let's see what I can learn from it.
