That’s the nature of lovely pastel hair - it’s never going to hold terribly long. But as long as you can be bothered doing it, it looks fucking rad.
Yeah, I suppose that’s true! Totally worth the effort, I reckon ;D xx

I wash mine every second day too, it sucks. Someone I follow on Tumblr from Melbourne bought Special Effects from Wildilocks today, I’ve heard that they’re pretty good. You could try there for something different? The store is in Little Collins.
OH YES, thank you for reminding me Wildilocks exists! I’ve never been, but have been meaning to for probably years now :P
I think I used Special Effects about six years ago (the first time I was pink!), and it was okay- AMAZING colours, and I think it lasted okay for me… may have to consider trying again! xx

Is there any way to dilute Atomic Pink down to the colour you want? Because that shit needs to be bleached out of my hair, no shampoo will move it.
Oooh, that sounds promising (for me; annoying for you)! I wish my hair held onto dyes a little better, I’ve never had anything last terribly well…

I tend to use a a mix of both Manic Panic and Fudge, but whenever I use manic panic, it lasts a long time for me (about a month, before it starts to fade), which amazed me, considering Fudge fades within a week…
Yeah, fudge is pretty much the worst, haha! It shits me that it’s so hard to find good products in Aus.
Also, I wash my hair every second day, so pretty much every dye fades super fast for me. :/ I think I’ll just try everything once and see what’s best suited! :D xx

Manic Panic is so hit or miss and I personally don’t think it lasts that long/the fading makes your hair look like shit usual imo. My fav is Punky Colours by Jerome Russel, don’t know if you’d be able to get it though!
Ooh, haven’t heard of Punky Colours! I’ll check it out, thank you :D

Manic Panic is amazing. It lasts so long.
Is that what you use, Shann?

I use purple haze, and it’s amazing :) manicpanic.com/besthai…
Oh sorry, I just saw your other comment- I used Pravana Vivids Chromasilk in Pink, but I can’t find it here >_<
I might have to experiment with Manic Panic and Special Effects, too! Cotton Candy looks pretty damn close to the colour I’m after… Thanks, lovely. :)
Purple Haze is gorgeous!!!!!

Fuck using Whiter Shade of Pale - it’s a rip off. Just dilute Pink Moon in conditioner first. That shit is boss - it’s what I do. I used to use WSoP but it did the same bloody thing.
Oooooooooh, really? Cool, thank you. You are full of excellent tips, m’lady! I already bought WSoP >_< but I’ll just use conditioner in future.
I’m still waiting for Pravana to sell their wares in Aus, their pink is my favourite.

You’re so welcome! I can’t find that sort of color here in my state(in the US) and would have to special order online. But maybe dilute with conditioner using a brighter shade? Or something else like conditioner? I know that sometimes help!
Thanks for the tip- I haven’t tried diluting with conditioner!
The original colour is by Pravana Vivids which are an American company, but my hairdresser told me he reckons Fudge colours Pink Moon + Whiter Shade Of Pale (which is like a purple toner) might combine to make the same tone.
Fingers crossed! ;D

You look great. Pulling off that baby fringe with aplomb.

ohh, I’m in love. This color is awesome on you!
why, thank you kindly! :D
i can’t find the dye in australia though, so i’m going to try to replicate it with aussie colours… WHAT IF I RUIN IT?! D:
I have replaced the power adapter on my macbook about four fucking times since I’ve had it. It has died again today for no apparent reason.
I’ve checked all the power sockets in my house, extension cords, fucking everything- there is nothing causing it except PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE!
Fuck this bullshit, I have 2:09 left until it dies and I have to go spend another $100 on a piece of shit power cord that will last me three months. GOOD DAY TO YOU, SIR.
Just reblobbing myself to say YOU WERE WRONG, KATE. THIS TIME YOUR POWER ADAPTER LASTED 11 MONTHS*. Good jorb, Apple. I wish I knew how to quit you.
*This time there was an orange spark and then everything smelled like cap guns and synthetic toad skins for an hour.
My favourite song by Jack’s band :D

You should put bacon, and then cheese, and then bacon in the George Foreman grill. Grilled cheese sandwich with bacon for bread!
YOUR IDEAS ARE MUCH BETTER THAN MINE :D ♥
I’m always having brilliant thoughts in the middle of the night, like: WE SHOULD PUT BACON IN THE GEORGE FOREMAN GRILL, and: I wonder if spiders ever accidentally bite themselves and liquify?

Lazy-eye-five! ^_^ ♥
