Hello world!
If you came here in search of a tribute to the Girls Aloud hit, this is not the place I'm afraid. However, if you're into the ramblings of a girl who impulsively changed her hair to try 'something new' before she turns twenty (argh!) stick around.
So yes, I have been to the hairdressers and have changed my look... a bit. I've always played it safe with my hair, as I've been wary of damaging my precious locks which have painfully taken me years to grow, but with a little nudge from my sister and a bit of adrenaline, I took the plunge.
I discussed the colour I wanted with my hair stylist and we decided upon going for something similar to Rachel Bilson's lovely caramel blonde ends, which complement her roots (which are a similar colour to mine) beautifully. Although I love bright blonde ombre styles, such as Zoella's, as a first step I think a darker colour was more fitting, especially for autumn.
Here is a before and after picture, although admittedly it does not showcase my hair properly. And yes, I am fully aware that my skin is slightly of the orange variety in the first picture... the picture was taken in the summer and I think the sun may have gone to my head. Nevertheless - here is my new look, and I'm pretty chuffed with it.
I would like to say that this change has made me feel empowered and sassy because I had the guts to do it, but so far I think I just look like a baffoon oogling at myself in reflective surfaces in astonishment that I actually had the balls to go kind of blonde!
Anyways, I can't be the only impulsive so-and-so changing their look... what's new with everyone?! Also, fellow ombre-ers, what hair products do you reccomend for keeping your ends silky smooth?
Lu ♥
