i started dyeing my hair almost 2 years ago; initially i did it so it would match with a halloween costume i came up with, but since then i've grown to love dyeing it for the hell of it. i'm gonna re-dye my hair soon, but first i wanna shorten my bangs and have 2 patches of my bangs bleached (preferably on the left & right sides)...then i'm gonna seek out a jar of this:



...yep. i'm gonna have skunky bangs this time. i'm gonna retire infra red & pillarbox red (the two manic panic colors i've been using) for now.

anyways, are there any of you who dye your hair (or have in the past) bright colors? if so, what colors have you dyed it?

awesome !

i have only used natural hennas on my hair to bring out the auburn

i be skeered to go that drastic

I sued to have my hair a kinda golden brown and one time, it was fuschia. The good ole days when I was a girl.

Dej, you have no idea! I used to rock dresses and full makeup. It's so much easier being a boy.

Great picture, BTW.

I used Manic Panic once before. I can't remember the name for sure - Sunburst or something? It was this metallic bronze kinda color. It came out looking like Bowie circa 1976, which is a very, very good thing.

I've dyed my brother's hair with Manic Panic many times. He's had it neon yellow, construction orange and aqua.

Stymie said:

thanx...that was from last june, before i cut my hair & let my 'fro grow out.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

My mom used to put foundation or rouge on my brother and I in family portraits so that we wouldn't look so pale. No wonder I'm so confused!

dude...if you got 'em, scan 'em and post 'em.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

I grew up a tomboy, playing football, tag, piggie with tha fellas, got interested in them and started wearing girlie stuff. Luckily, that phase wore off. Boys and makeup.

GangstaFam said:

I can unconfuse you.

But I guess it would be like dating a guy if you got with me.

Stymie said:

I feel so left out.

Stymie said:

Hardly! You're all woman to me.

Stymie said:

ewwww. boys and makeup are yucky! the girliest i can even come close to coming is wearing pink...actually i've been flirting with the idea of dyeing my bangs pink one of these days.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK!!!!

Seriously, that's the sweetest thing anyone could say to me.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

That'd be hot.

Stymie said:

Seriously, I meant it.

It still cracks me up thinking about us hanging out in Royal Oak. I can't remember what we were talking about, but you turned to me with a shocked look on your face and said, "You like girls!!?? Oh, I'm totally gonna rape you now."

I have never heard of Manic Panic..

I have alot of white hair, but chose not to confront the obvious... Just yet.

hi, mama!

Holy shit! Did I say that? Stop making me miss your ass more.


I gotta get back to Detroit real soon.

Stymie said:

Anytime baby.

my crazy hair colors were always happy accidents.

one time i dyed my hair black, then a month or two later, decided to bleach it white. the result was black hair with an inch or so of orange roots, which i just thought was the coolest thing in the world, so i kept it until my mother threatened murder if i didn't fix it ASAP.

another time i tried to dye my hair black after bleaching it white, and i wound up with crayon blue hair. i kept that for about a day then i felt like a dork and dyed it all the way black.

I'm so going black if we go to Bauhaus.

I've had platinum blond/almost silver hair. And I once had neon orange hair. I didn't really mean for it to be, but that's how it came out. I kept it for a few weeks and tried to bleach it out. It came out a kinda pastel peach, which was fun for a while. Then I bleached it back out to white.
And of course, I've had crayola red.
