  mummydactyl — 10/1/2021

  Halloo lovely haircrazies. I confess I have been mostly absent (we can joke that I was living my extra life, but in reality 2 jobs and 3 kids kind of keeps you busy) ...anyway as UK people will know we’re in the middle of another national lockdown. I solved my issue of loathing any kind of long hair by investing in some clippers and having a LOT of fun in the bathroom. Here is the end result. Yes I did shave off a triangle at the front. I’ve then rebleached all but the top and did a pine green to lime green gradient on the very very short sides. On the top I disguised the regrowth with a custom pine green / black shadow root, then did a mix of spring green and NEW lime green (with some leftover electric lizard) for the tips. My kids mostly hate it, but it’s a week in and I’m enjoying it immensely ? :D I will attempt to post more often and add backdated pics to my timeline, but no promises! Love to you all ? <3 Oh and a question, I don’t especially identify as emo punk or goth, but often others feel I definitely am! Should I be ticking one of those boxes when I post?

  Possibly my favourite colour combo and style this year! Pretty sure the blue here is Pulp Riot but not listed below.

  This is the best version that shows off the hair if not my face!! A joint experiment between me and hairdresser Julia (not normally her thing and usually I do it myself... but this time I really needed her help in applying the colour!)

  From the front. Verging on a mohawk but not quite! The back is quite different...will post that separately. I was going to go rainbow on top but didn't want to bleach the tips (pale mint green) so we have cool tones and the rainbow is at the back. First time trying Nirvana by Pulp Riot. Gorgeous colour but unsurprisingly doesn't live up to the UV reactive claim.

  From the back...I still need to work out how best to style the cut... it's longer on top than I'm used to! Really pleased with clipper work at the bottom, especially as I persuaded my hairdresser to go out of her comfort zone and apply all the colour ...would have been a disaster trying to do that myself) ...let the summer begin!

  My excuse for posting this is that colourful hair is a great base for glitter...I loved having this done and it would have been a waste of a selfie not to add it here!

  Here's the retouch after a cut and root bleach from my fab hairdresser...used the last of the pine green/black mix - I had a pot to take away - and then graduated the toxic UV into the darker colour. The tips were still turquoise so I just slapped some Flo Glow on those! Zigzag hair tattoo and UV to follow.

  UV shot as promised! A bit grainy though as phone camera can't quite cope with these light levels...

  Had a fantastic experience after receiving a model call for a bleach specialist course, and had this beautiful green combo put in after the bleach was done... the pine green was mixed with a tiny bit of black (not listed here), and the tips were a mix of that and Toxic UV, also not listed. And I learned something new while I was there...turns out this salon did all the hair work for the ads for the new Crazy Colour UV range. I learned a lot that day!

  Taken on my way to a monastic retreat in Herefordshire. As you do. The abbot called my hair a walking work of art, which made me blush as I really wasn't expecting it!!

  How to take a photo of the front and the back at the same time. 2 small lines razored in on each side too. I was so delighted with it my hairdresser said I looked like all my Christmases had come at once! (She wasn’t far off!!)
