Loose Waves, Strange Technique + Haul

First of all I'd like to thank you all for your comments about the new hair color. I can be one of those way too self conscious nightmares if I feel like somethings wrong(you know, WOE IS ME; MY HAIR COLOR'S SOOOOO UGLY OMG I HATE BEING ME :P). Your comments really helped quell my sadness :).

This is why I don't speak in most of my videos...I'm not exactly the most articulate speaker. I guess I should just work on it since it's much easier to explain things while speaking rather than typing it out. Earlier I wondered what it would look like if I wrapped my hair around two irons. I love wavy hair but a triple barrel takes forever for me and scrunching gives me inconsistent results. I know it looks like a pain, but I quickly got the hang of it. I used a 1 and 1/4 and a 1 and 1/2 inch iron. If I had any smaller irons I would have used those. I think that you'd need to use smaller irons if your hair is short.

No eyeshadow today besides using Maybelline's Antique Jade as a liner along with my regular black liner.

Few things I bought this weekend...the dreadful hair dye not included in the pic since I used it of course. I also bought a few items of clothing, but they're scattered throughout the house.

~Pointy black pumps w/ gold paint splatters(I've loved pointy pumps since I was a little kid just because that's what my mom always wore)
~Round Toe Platform Pumps
~Giovanni Smooth as Silk Shampoo and Conditioner-my first sulfate free shampoo...I'll review it after I've used it at least 3 or 4 times
~Organix Coconut Milk Split End Mender...I'll also review this after a few uses

So I Dyed My Hair

...and I hate it. It didn't turn green, orange, or disastrous but it's so freakin drab/boring looking. I wanted a auburn/reddish brown. I remembered that every time I've used a reddish hair dye the red came out way too intense and took like two weeks to fade to the color I wanted, but I still picked up a dye that looked pretty noticeably red because I wanted something fun and new. Now I have drab shit brown hair with red that only shows up in certain lighting. My mom and boyfriend told me not to dye it, but I'm obviously a dumbass. My mom actually ended up saying she likes it a lot and I should stick to this for a while. I have a feeling when my bf sees it, "What the fuck did you do to your hair" will be the first thing out of his mouth.

So I went from this color that I liked but was starting to get bored of...

To this blahness that gives me an oh so lovely Plain Jane look

The red shows up in the sunlight...but I don't spend my days sitting in the sun to show off my hair color's full potential. My heels completely sunk into the grass which is why the pants look too long

I have a little haul from yesterday that I'll post either later or tomorrow. I haven't taken pics yet. I finally found a pair of black pants in a size 3 long. I can easily find jeans in long lengths(but I wear skinnies 99% of the time so I can wear regular length ones), but everytime I find black pants they only come in one length. Since my shoes are rarely under 4 inches my pants need to be pretty long.

I needed to post just so I could complain. I know it's not drastic but I still don't like it :(. Can you recommend any red/auburn hair glaze type thing that'll boost the red? I don't want to be too rough on my hair by redying it especially since I want to grow it out.

Fiddle Dee Dee

Nothing much to post today, but earlier I made a video for how I curled my hair in my post yesterday. It looks different in this video because I fiddled with it more than yesterday when I pretty much just took the clips out and left my hair alone. I left my ends out of the iron.
