I use to have platinum blonde hair until sometime after I had Riley. I decided to give it another whirl. I use to have it done professionally but when my Auntie Susan couldn't get me in, my Mom would do it for me. So I knew what product she had used. The blonde I use to have was gorgeous! I thought there wasn't much of a risk since I knew exactly what to use. I headed to Sally Beauty supply got the stuff and had Lane do it. I don't know if hormonal changes in my body from the last 2 babies I had, or if maybe my hair got darker, whatever the case it doesn't look the way I want it too. I am so embarrassed. It's a yellower honey blonde (unnatural) totally not the whiter blonde that I was shooting for. I'm wishing now that I hadn't done it. I've been wanting to go back to blonde for years, but having it done on a student budget is just not an option. However $7 a month is doable. I guess I should have just waited another 3 years until we were done with school and I could pay to have it done. Oh well. I'm stuck with it. I"m not giving up trying to do better though. I am waiting a week and going to try to tone it again, and hopefully that will work! In the mean time, be warned that I have really yellow blonde hair and I"m oh so embarrassed! I took a picture of myself on my computer. For some reason when I take a picture, it looks WAY better than it does in real life. The camera isn't picking up all of the yellow. If my hair really looked like this picture, I would be happy but it doesn't. Since I knew you would probably ask for a picture, here it is.
Picture deleted to avoid further embarrassment!

I think it looks great!
I know pictures always make the hair look different but I think it looks great!
well it must look different from this picture because the picture is gorgeous. You did a great job!
it looks great, but i do understand how pictures don't look the same as real life. when i had my hair coloring mess up several months ago, the pictures made it look way better than it actually was! so, though it looks great in the picture, i understand that you still may not like it!
everyone told me, "it's just hair! it grows back!" i am still working on growing out my mess up and am dying to have my natural dark brown hair back!
I think it looks great too! But if you really want someone to fix it, my sister does hair, and since she does it in her home she does it for cheap. I don't know her costs, i'd have to ask her... But really, I think you look great!!
Wow. If that's bad, you look great! You shouldn't be embarrassed at all. I know the feelign though. When I first did my hair color I didn't want to leave the house for two weeks. Then teh color faded and it was just right.
I like the color in the picture. I hope toning it some more will help. I just had my sis-in-law cut my hair. I wanted it short, but she talked me in to just cutting some bangs and I hate them. If my hair didn't grow so fast I would chop it all off. I feel like I have a mullett!!! I so feel your pain.
I have never seen you with a bad hair day! And I liked it even when I saw you in person, but I'm not really one to talk. I had highlights once, eight years ago and that is the extent of hair coloring - I'm very wimpy when it comes to risk taking with my hair.
Sarah, you make me laugh! Just a year ago you showed up at my house in tears about your hair cut, I think it looks wonderful! and you know that unfortunately I wouldn't lie although I prolly should about these things. By the way that hair cut you had was kind of funky till you had it fixed, But I think you look really good!...No Lie!
Also...once I dyed my own hair, and also my eyebrows, but I went to bed completely forgetting about the dye on my eyebrows..the next morning I could barely open my eyes...because I had second degree burns and my eyebrows were ronald mcDonald red! Whish they had blog spot back then..
sarah what a beautiful picture of you and your littlest guy...very sweet!
I think it looks beautiful in the picture and in real life!
I think you look great! I'm impressed that Lane did it too. Maybe if the ortho thing doesn't work out he could do beauty school. Who knows, the hours could be better!
Sarah - Your hair could be hot pink and you would still be as gorgeous as ever!
I am constantly changing my hair and can never seem to find a "happy" place with it...but in all honesty this color is fantastic on you! Kudos to Lane for helping out....I would never let Jared near my hair!
Sarah I think your hair looks great!
Sarah-it looks so great! The great thing about blonde is there are so many "right shades" that you can choose from.
You look so good! I like your cut too.
Well, (I realize I'm late in saying this), I think it looks great too! You're always so gorgeous!
