Hello hello READERS!
Oh wow it's been 23 days since I last posted. I'm so sorry. It's been so long and I'm always thinking of blogging yet I never really get around to doing it. So much respect for part-time bloggers and full time bloggers or just about any bloggers in general who really put all there effort in.
On to the topic of the day....So I dyed my hair to .... wait for it.... ORANGE! Yes, this is a review for Schwarzkopf Nordic Blonde dye but it didn't turn out the way I planned.
I forgot to take some pictures beforehand so I just used a picture from the photo shoot I did last time.
No filter was used to keep the colour of my hair authentic. As you can see my regrowth was showing from my last dark brown dye.
General Information:
Price: The product is fairly reasonable priced for a dye $18.99 I think?? Although I got it on sale for $14.99 so a few dollars saved :D
Mixture: The product had three parts which you have to mix. One is application bottle with developer lotion and the last part is blonde booster. As I wasn't going for peroxide blonde I didn't put all the contents of the blonde booster sachet into the mixture.
Texture: I am under the impression that the mixture wasn't mixed properly as I saw small white lumps of ball in my hair and the mixture dried exceptionally fast. It looked almost like large flakes of clumpy dandruff.
Sensitivity of dye: My head did sting slightly every now and then however it was no where near as unbearable as my friends have described there blonde/bleaching experience.
Colour: I was fairly disappointed with the colour. I was aiming for a light colour close to blonde but not almost. Yet I was left with this orangy/brown patchy colour.
Problems: There were two problems which could have caused the incorrect colour, 1: not mixing the mixture thoroughly and 2: only buying one packet of dye. As my hair is fairly long, between waist and shoulders, my friend ran out of dye pretty quickly and we had to like just spread the already dyed parts onto the non dyed parts T.T
After effect: My hair is now extremely dry. I've applied a generous amount of the conditioning serum the dye comes with to keep it hydrated but it doesn't seem to work very well. My hair now feels like straw =[
My hair might look like its a flowing waterfall but I'm using all these intense nourishing conditioners to keep it in tact. From the picture you can also see how blonde my hair is around my forehead but near my ends it's pretty much dark brown.
Overall: I have read plentiful of reviews on this product getting mostly 4/5 and 5/5 however I'd personally give it a 1.5/5 from this fateful experience. Not only was I left orange but the dye did not spread well and I was left with a Cheetah patches in my hair and my hair is like straw.
This is the most recent picture of me. As you can see my hair is fairly dry and I'm getting horrible regrowth.
I hope this review was informative! Stay happy and don't let a bad hair cut or hair dye throw you down. ❤❤❤❤
