Wahoo! My new color is here! Now, I just have to be patient and wait a couple of weeks before doing it again.

Very Beautiful Blonde!!!

 Congrats on your promotion!
God Bless,...

Your hair looks great either way, but much more natural looking now. It definately warms up your complexion. Nice job. Crossing my finger you don't get too much fading.

I totally agree with it being more professional looking.  As lovely as platinum hair looks (mmm shimmery), it has it's sterotypes - especially where I live - and it's done wrong so many times.

Good luck with your promotion, you hair looks fabulous!

I got really lucky on the color on ebay. I bought it from the same seller. I think I'm going to mix the two colors 3 parts Cafe Au Lait and 1 part Mojave. Then I'll be able to do 1 part Cafe Au Lait and 3 parts Mojave when I'm ready again after that without having to buy more. It will be the gradual change I'm looking for.

I have gotten so many compliments at work! I have just gotten a promotion that I'm easing into (it's a created position and I'm still training someone to replace me). I'll be visiting customers and I think it's more professional than the platinum.

It really wasn't difficult to use the cap by myself. I just took my time.

I am so close to my natural color! This is an awesome feeling!

Did you just type that indeed!  Porousity has ruined my life!!!


I buy loads of hair stuff off Ebay because its so cheap and I have no Sallys nearby.  Only problem is, if you want the same thing again there's no guarantee it'll be there!

Thanks y'all! I ordered it on e-bay. I got enough solution (bought separately) when I ordered the Cafe Au Lait the first time. I didn't apply heat to it like my stylist did the first two times in the salon, but it seems to be holding up pretty well for a semi-perm. Thank goodness for porosity! (EEK! Did I just type that??!!)

I know, I know.....I had sworn off doing it myself, but sometimes plans change. In my attempt to go to my natural haircolor (between a level 8 and 9 neutral/ash blonde) I have had lowlights twice by a professional. This time, I ordered the color I needed to get more ash back and did it myself with a cap. HINT: don't buy a cheap hook....mine broke about 1/2 way through. My darling bf made me a new one out of a bobby pin. I'll never complain about the garage being full of high tech tools again!

Anyway, the color is a little light (Redken EQ semi-perm in 09N-Cafe Au Lait) to match my natural color and has faded a tad, of course, since I did it last week. I've already ordered the next level darker in the same ash tone (08N-Mojave). The gold on top is a reflection of the overhead light. Don't we all hate artificial light??!!  I'm on the right track.....I'm leaning toward a neutral/ash which is what I needed. Now, I just have to find the right shade.
