Hi Barefoot,
Wella, huh.
Wella Rulz!!!!!!
It is absolutely the only thing that will cover my white hair. Anything else gives it a lovely pink tone because the white is so resistant. I have been springing for Wella for years. When my hair turned pink, or was it mahogany, I broke up with my hairdresser and whatever the heck she used on me. It was in that stage where you need to leave semi-permanent color for permanent color. She kept trying to fix it, but I ran away finally. I hated to do that. I liked her very much as a person, but she failed me as a hairdresser. A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do, you know.
In fact, Barefoot, I think Wella was one of the very first discussions we ever had in the Girl Talk thread when it started months ago.
For me, it's Wella of a certain kind (the name looks like the word 'cholesterol' but I can't remember what it is) and some highlights and a Goldwell clear over all of it and I can look like my hair is not a dye-job.
Of course, it costs me a blue fortune, and my hair grows so fast, I am there all the time. Maybe I should just go with blue hair instead of spending a blue fortune every month.
It sure is a pain to try to look like you have done absolutely nothing to your hair.
I think maybe I need to get over it. But that transition period is so hard to go through. I will probably be an old, old, old lady, shriveled up beyond recognition, but still thinking my hair looks so naturally young. (I am so pathetic sometimes. Oh well, at least I know that about myself.)
I got an email the other day from a friend who is making the changeover. And guess what. -- I am supposed to tell her if it looks like
Like I'm going to do that. Uh huh. One time I had somebody ask me to let her know if her black, black dye-job started to look like shoe polish. Oh Barefoot, I just cannot tell all these people the truth. Even if they ask me to. They would not speak to me ever again. That's just the way Girl Talk works sometimes.
So anyway, there I went again, singing the praises of Wella. But once you have been saved from pink, or was it mahogany hair, you are eternally grateful to that which rescued you.
