Just posted a photo on my Instagram story (mearagrrl) if anyones curious of the color!

Oh, yeah, I've found Arctic Fox doesn't grab onto my hair unless it's been chemically treated to within an inch of its life (but it's so pretty & it laaaaaaaaasts). I use Splat, which tends to work well even on non-bleached hair, but I've never used their blue.

I'd say use the Manic Panic fades-to-pink one and shoot for ombre.

The actual blue part of your hair is so pretty!

Thanks, yeah, the previously pink bits came oh great, just the color I wanted. So it’s just the gray that’s annoying.

Ooh, now that I've seen the periwinkle, purple would be very nice on the roots if it works. Fade to pink blue is also intriguing.

That's why Arctic Wolf sounded vaguely familiar to me - I was confusing it with Arctic Fox!

I've found Arctic Fox doesn't grab onto my hair unless it's been chemically treated to within an inch of its life (but it's so pretty & it laaaaaaaaasts).

Ditto, and for the pale shades especially you're not going to get the bottle color without bleaching to platinum. (My son had neon yellow/green hair for a little while, and the pretreatment step took foreeeeever. Thank goodness he went back to hot pink.)

I generally find that any shade of bright blue + any shade of pink will blend nicely and everyone will assume you did something extremely cool on purpose.

My current shade is "random streaks of all the different blues/purples/greens I had to use up" and I looooooove it.

Ooh, that sounds fun

Good to know—I hadn’t used Arctic fox before so wasn’t sure what to expect, but it was just the color I was looking for so figured I’d give it a shot.

Hello everyone! My leg muscles are tired from bracing to walk on unsafe surfaces & my back is kind of ouchy.

Otherwise - doing well. Except for mostly failing at Wordle. I had things I wanted to respond to but I can’t remember it anymore.

What does it mean that there are multiple articles on Whedon now? Is this parade of horrors done sort of publicity tour for something?

I've been thinking of trying one of those silver/gray hair colors - my white hair tends to grab the color and hold it, while the dark strands would add contrast. But the one and only time I tried coloring my hair myself, I'd wanted the color (red, but not auburn red) to wash out and not fade to a pink that had to grow out, so I'm hesitant. Also lazy.

Periwinkle is, from something I read, Pantone's color of the year. It's pretty, but there seems to be some question about what it is, exactly - I've seen pictures ranging from what I consider periwinkle to blue to lavender.

As to the Whedon articles - there was one in the Washington Post this week. It seems that it was one story that started a trend and everyone's jumping on. I'm sad that he turned out to be the way that's being reported. Was he better early on and got worse as he got more power, or was he this way from the start and looked better in comparison to the other people in comparable positions?

I haven't worn red in decades, but I do remember how hard it can be to predict whether any specific shade will fade to orange or pink.
