Pretty in Pink

My whole life, I've wanted alternatively coloured hair. I naturally have really, really dark hair - almost black, but I've been dying it reddish or ginger for the past five or six years. I know they say your natural colour is meant to suit you best of all, but I'm so pale that my real hair colour just makes me look like a washed out Wendy Adams.

A while back I took the plunge and finally lightened my hair enough to go alternative, and went a pretty aqua blue/turquoise ombré. It was a fun move but honestly it never felt very me. There's only one colour I've ever wanted to go, and that colour was pink!

So... after a few months blue, I've finally done it! Now I very nearly have the hair colour I've always wanted, and honestly I can't get over how much I love it! Ideally I'd like to fade it out to be a little more pastel and less vibrant - the first photo is pretty much exactly how I'd love it, but it came out a little blotchy so I had to colour it again! Right now, it's a gorgeous bright pink that makes me feel like I'm in permanent Pinkie Pie cosplay, hah!

For those wondering, this is a mix of Directions Carnation Pink, Flamingo Pink and Pastel Pink! And lots and lots of conditioner!
