Valerie Diamond Offline Posts: 615 Colorado Gender:	New pictures including pre and post color Feb 26^th, 2005 at 9:28pm So here are a couple comparisons of my hair pre and post color. I really love the new color. The waves in the post picture are my natural waves after washing. I haven't tried wearing them down for any time, so I'm not sure how long they would last. What would these be classified as?

No way it can compare with the previous double colour. Very good choice. And your waves look so soft and gentle and... touchable! Thanks for sharing

I had been hoping to get pictures with similar lighting but that hasn't worked out yet. I suppose in a month or so I'll know just how well this matches my natural color. I really think it will be close, and will hopefully blend well.

But I don't want to keep dying blonde, either. Mine is growing out, like yours was.

Valerie, do you know what kind of colour was used?
Was it permanent or semi permament? What Brand?
Just asking because some day I will probably do the same.

Yes I think dark hair does look denser.
I'm kinda scared to try henna- although I would rather go that route instead of chemical dye.
I'm afraid I might get an unwanted result.
No stylist around here will apply henna( I live in a rural area) they're against it.
I'll have to do it myself- kinda scares me.

babyfine, i just washed the first hairball from my strandtest with ahmad (henna from iran) and it didn't seem to turn green nor black (not that i'd mind black, i hope to be able to achieve an "almost black" with henna + herbal henna.
and henna has hardly any smell in my opinion, smells like spinach if you stick your nose in it. Grin

i think henna is loads of fun and your rewarded with greater hair instead of dried out locks.

All I know is that it was a demi-permanent? color. Supposed to let all my natural highlights come through. Once I knew my friend was going to do it, I stopped worrying as much about what she was using. It did cause damage though. I'm having to deep condition a ton, and I've got splits that are going to take a very long time to get rid of.

Val, your hair is Wunderbar! I'd say you're about a 2a or a 2b for the waviness.
