Hair Stencils

Dip dye is definitely a thing of the past, and has been for some time now. Maintaining an element of individuality is seemingly more difficult now, as trends can be mimicked without a second thought. 

It started out as a way of expressing yourself through fashion, but it was snatched by the masses in an attempt to appear more 'alt' and for a while tumblr was pretty much swamped with bottle blondes with coloured tips. The new sub-trend is one that won’t be copied easily. Hair stencils take time and perseverance to get right, not to mention money! I can't see a DIY hair stencil being too successful and have concluded that it's probably best to get it professionally done... I also feel that stencils may work better on shaved hair. Although it does look pretty cool on lengthy hair, it’s got to be pretty impractical simply because of the way hair falls!




Has anyone tried hair stencilling DIY or Professionally?
Do you think dip dye lost its touch of individuality?

Dippy



Finished dip dye!

It faded after the first day, so it's currently baby pink which is quite nice! I'd recommend it, but one warning- IT'S ADDICTIVE! I kept adding more streaks!

So my last post spoke about results day, and I have to say, I'm very please with my GCSE results! I'm over the moon about English; I got and A in Language, and and A* in Literature :)

Reading Festival was also amazing, I'll be doing a post on that later on!

Has anyone else received GCSE or A Level results?

not strictly dip dye

RESULTS DAY TOMORROW ASDFHLKIUOIUNO!!!


But after that, I'm off to Reading Festival, so all's good!


As I'm off to a festival tomorrow, I thought I'd dye a few strand of hair pink, because, if you cant do it at a festival, where can ya do it?!






I'm waiting for it to dry at the moment, but when it is, I'll post some pictures :)


I used La Riche semi-permanent in Flamingo Pink
