THE FANTASY PEEK-A-BOO

Let me count how long has it been since I last blogged...7 months. So that means its been 7 months since I last dyed my hair. Not bad isn't it? My Rainbow Peek-a-Boo lasted me well. Okay I would have totally changed my color (and blogged more) but i blame it on work heehee :P


Looks gross, I know. This is what happens when you neglect your hair for 7 months.
So with 7 months gone, I kinda allowed my hair to rest a little so my roots grew out significantly (to me it was significant), and of course the colors were way way WAYYY pastel. I mean its been 7 months guys. I'm surprised there are still colors at all lol.


So the first thing we had to do was of course remove the ugly faded rainbow colors because there is definitely no way to achieve what I want if I don't bleach my ugly colors off.
and tadahhh. I kinda like the pink at the bottom to be honest hahahaha. Charles divided my hair higher this time round to make my new colors more distinct so we're like going higher and higher each time I'm at Headlines because its never obvious enough for me lol. I really should just dye my whole head but I'm pretty convinced that I will scare all my clients away so there's that.


and now for my favorite part heehee.


I get super excited whenever Charles starts coloring my hair because all I see is the dividing of the color and layering of my hair and fancy colors on my hair that is in its raw state. and of course I will see Charles's thinking face so that adds on to the excitement cause you know he's really wrecking his brain to make my hair gorgeous.


The anticipation of how well my hair absorbs the color and how it will turn out never gets old. Like never. This is prolly why I'm so addicted to trying out colors.


So after a loooong dont know how many minutes of hair wash, I still have to wait for my hair to dry before I can see the color (this is like the worst moment) but THANKS GUYS for always giving me the princess treatment of having 3 hairdressers blow my hair for me because I know you guys can't wait to see the colors as well heehee.

AND FOR THE GRAND FINALE!!
*inserts drum rolls*
(I wanna like be annoying and put in alot of dots because you're suppose to be anticipating but I dont know how many dots to put so lets put 3 dots.)

FEATURING: THE FANTASY PEEK-A-BOO.
Why is it Fantasy you say? Because the colors are damn fantasy-ish no?
It consists of 4 special blends - Purple, Blue, Green & Ash. I also dyed my hair darker because when my dark brown fades its gonna fit perfectly. Like it won't be the blonde brown.


Side View
Somehow (I honestly think its cause of my hair), there are like different shades of the respective colors as well which is AWESOME. Here are 2 more pictures for your admiration.

I did this color a month back - 17th January to be exact. Was pretty worried on how it'll fade by the time CNY comes but a month later, I still think the colors are preeetyy and i'm not even being bias. Judge for yourself.


Its not AS striking yes, but thats usual because color tends to fade. You'll also notice that my dark brown has faded into a lighter shade of brown which is the end effect that Charles and I were looking at. So not only did Charles plan the colors, he also looked into the future as well. HEEHEE. THANKS CHARLES. YOU KNOW YOU HAVE MAGICAL HANDS.

Here are a couple more pictures taken after a month:

and with that, I bid you HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR AND HERE'S YOUR ANGPAO:

I CALL THIS THE RAINBOW PEEK-A-BOO

WOAH. You mean it has been 5 months since i blogged!? HAHA crap. In my head it felt like just a month ago. Clearly, I'm failing my New Year Resolutions greatly. How time flies. 

Had an amazing birthday last month with the beloved clique in Phuket which I will TRY to blog about the next time I set aside time to blog heehee. But this is not why I'm here today.
I've tried countless colors on my hair. Red, Purple, Pink. Even had my hair dyed in unicorn as well so when it comes to wanting to toy with new colors, well, i have limitations because i've tried almost everything (except grey). So when I wanted to do something fancy for my birthday this year and also because I had to do something about my roots, I got stuck pretty badly despite spending hours on Pinterest so I gave up and told myself that Charles would be able to come up with something good so lets leave the coloring burden to him heh.
I had brown hair with green bottom highlights from CNY(Okay, I honestly have no idea what such hair is called so I'm just going to call it Green Peek-A-Boo). Had my hair cut short because I was super sick of the damaged ends so the blue purplish ombre was gone :( Charles got super excited from a picture he came across so we decided to make his partial dream come true with my hair. Well, partial because my hair's short now so we could only choose 4 colors from the rainbow instead of having the entire rainbow on my hair.
The first thing we had to do was to remove the super lasting green from Christmas so Charles divided my hair into half and bleach it so that this time, the bottom would be more obvious. The previous green I had felt super hidden and I was constantly trying to find ways to make it obvious so Charles ensured that I wouldn't face this challenge anymore and boy was he right. Hellooo to Rainbow Peek-A-Boo.
We decided on the color: Blue, Green, Yellow & Pink and here's where the fun begins. Out of all days, Charles decided to wear his super expensive Limited Edition Jordan Kicks on this very day. So the ENTIRE time he was obsessed with ensuring that he didn't get any colors on his shoes instead of paying attention to my hair which is supposedly suppose to be more important. Here's how Charles did my hair:
Super Expensive Limited Edition Jordan Kicks 
Protecting his kicks with the hair trolleys. Most flexible hair stylist award goes to Charles for opening your legs this wide and being able to stay in this position the entire time.
You're forgiven because you've always taken such great care of my hair and also because the colors came out nice :P 
Charles had to apply it in gradient so that it ombres down nicely. I think I spent almost 6 hours in the salon that day just to get this done.
and then the steaming and waiting began and yes I kept my fingers crossed the entire time because I have NO idea how this was going to turn out.

it didn't help when Charles was washing my hair and he kept gasping and kept saying 'SUPER NICE. *GASP.' GASP GASP GASP and everyone else came over and gasp as well and I was the only one not knowing how it looks like. Pressure guys.

so when I finally saw it, i giggled and smiled because WOAH, I HAVE LIKE PARTIAL UNICORN HAIR AGAIN HEH.
I love how intense the colors are from front, side and back. Charles dyed my hair Chocolate Brown so everything looks normal from the front and side. Looks like I have some pink extensions or something but from the back, its a complete Rainbow Peek-A-Boo Surprise. Its like 'hey guys, not so decent hair afterall :P' 
Here's how my hair looks like from the front or the side (Its like just mere tiny chunks of yellow and pink. Pretty cool, doesnt seem like anything majorly fancy)
BUT FROM THE BACK WOOHOO. Like when I turn and when I look down. Actually EVERYTHING. The rainbow comes out from the Chocolate Brown heeheehee :B
Therefore guys, the Rainbow Peek-A-Boo - proudly done by magical stylist whose Jordans are more important - Charles.

CNY = NEW HAIR

With Christmas wayyy overdue and with now being CNY and all, my green highlights (or whatever that is called) is no longer the appropriate color for the festive season. I wanted to dye my hair to something a little more CNY-ish but everyone has been doing Red so that was out and I had really limited choices because I insist on not bleaching my hair and since my green lasted so long, it was impossible to change to another pantone color without bleaching so my options were really limited.

But hand your hair to Charles and he'll do something magical to it. He proposed to let my green stay since it hasn't faded but to ombre the green to blue and omg, I totally have very mystical hair now!?
In order to match the green ombre blue, I had to dye my hair to a lighter shade of brown and once again cause I didn't want to bleach it, Charles concocted the lightest brown I can get without bleaching and I really love it. Never in my wildest imagination can I get a shade of brown this light without bleaching and it goes really well with everything. I don't think I ever want to change my hair color like ever. Okay, for now at least.
As you can see, certain parts of my green became pretty blond-ish. So Charles covered the blonde parts with blue so it ombres down nicely and because it was already that blonde, I didn't have to bleach it or anything.
The outcome was even better than I expected. I mean seriously. In my head it was just purely light brown + green and blue ombre. But I have no idea how did Charles do it but I somehow have a few greyish highlights on my ends as well. So when I mix my hair together in a ponytail, or when I curl it or braid it, I think it looks amazing. Especially in curls.
Its been a week now and my color is still really striking and I'm not even using colored shampoo. Yay to mystical hair! See it to believe it (Major picture spams ahead...)
Look how amazzzzing it looks in a fishtail braid xx.
