The best time to make a drastic change to your appearance is right before you go and meet 1400 or so strangers for the first time.
Clearly.
Which is why I thought it was an awesome idea to lure Hilly over to my house Sunday night under the guise of hanging out and then proceed to force her into doing things that I am too cheap to pay for. Like color my hair.
Perverts.
Let’s start off with a good old fashion BEFORE shot:

Wait a minute. Let’s back this up just a bit in an effort to defend myself ever so slightly.
Before there was THAT, there was THIS:

See?
ANYway, so we started off with dirty blonde hair. Dirty as in the color, not the hygiene.



Either Hilly was trying to shake some sense into me, or Google said something about dividing your hair into sections and starting at the back and the neck.
And yes, Google. Because one should always alter their appearance before meeting 1400 strangers by doing something that requires a consultation with Google half way through the procedure.
Clearly.

Three hours later…

So basically, the mushroom guy from Super Mario brothers farts pixie dust onto my head, and that makes the colors change.
And then we wash it all out, blow dry, blah blah blah blah and…











Dammit! I just dyed my hair pink too! Now people are going to get us confused.
Lovely ! And you are in mah signature color !! Blush and bashful!! So will this color still be active in Pink-Tober??
That came out so damn cute! Congrats!
Love,

That Hilly is one talented bitch!
Of course, she did have a hot glamorous subject to work on.
@Hilly,
Nice work!
yes, but does the carpet match the drapes?
Nice. Maybe Hilly can bring her waxing kit and wax MY brows. Cuz I am not going to have time, and it’s been months.
Zadorable!
I love it! I used to have purple hair and this is just making me wish I could redye it. You look awesome!
Love it! Can’t wait to see it in person!
It’s weird, but it seems like so many people are dying their hair pink now. I thought I was original. I might have to change it now. I’ll be easy to spot though, as mine is “slightly” pinker.

Can’t wait to meet you.
So when I randomly show up to visit you will put purple in my hair? because I really my purple hair.
(And you look super, super cute!)
Hot, hot, hot!
That is so cute I wish I could color my hair some fun colors but my job sucks and they think its not professional
A-freaking-dorable! You are!
The look does suit you. Unfortunately, once I read Avitable’s comment all I could think of was him making a similar post about dying his pubic hair. Now I have to go scour my eyes with steel wool.
Cute!
The only thing i’m jealous about blondes, you guys can easily dye your hair a funky color. I’d have to bleach mine first to really make it work.
Aw dammit. I want my very own Hilly.
Oh, and a Britt too!
Can’t wait to meet you! Only a few more hours!!
xo
It is pink, isn’t it? Alrighty then.
i can’t get past the red, red eyebrows in the first photo. did i look like that when you two ripped hair from my face?
I knew you were freshly waxed in the first picture. My face stays red like that for hours after I get waxed!
I like the pink, Pinky Tuscadero!
Awesome. I used to have my hair dyed pink, which ended up coming out more magenta. It was great and I miss it — which is why I’m doing some streaks again soon, if I can ever get ahold of one of my hairdresser relatives!
You look hot and should totally go all the way pink!
Love it! Now where did you get pink dye? I mean I’ve used manic-panic, but I seen instructions in one of the pictures above and M-P doesn’t have instructions like that. that I know of. So please share.
I love the look. Not anything *I* would do – but then, I’m not a girl – I have no hair – and I ain’t gonna paint my head. Although ……..
So cute! You can totally pull off pink hair! I dyed my son’s hair purple once and almost got him kicked out of school. He loved it, though.
That Hilly is one talented bitch! hee hee I of course don’t mean the bitch part but she *is* talented.
You’re so cute! I love coming to your blog. Never know what you’re going to get.
You totally pull it off, it looks so cute.
That said, I’m *really* curious as to what Emma’s reaction was to this change.
I really love it, its funky. Hope you have a great time at blogher too!!
Love it! Is it demi-permanent? J/w.
I think it’s a waaay cute summer look!
That Looks Awesome. I love it.
I love it!!!!!
Your pink looks a hell of a lot better than my brown disaster. It was supposed to be light, I’m looking goth, Gah!
pink is ALWAYS a good idea for hair colour! PERIOD.!
Love it!
Looks super cute! And I’m glad I’m not the only one into big changes at important times – I cut all my hair off last night and I leave for Blogher in 4 hours.
It rocks… and looked even better in person.
So glad to have hugged you here in Chicago!
Heh, that’s funny. I dyed my hair blonde with pink highlights back in May, and I thought to myself after leaving the salon, “This is what Britt would look like if she were punk rock!”
(Now my hair is Blonde with blue tips. I look like a Caribbean island)
you really weren’t naked?
well, i’m glad i met you! i love your hair. i think you’re absolutely adorable and fun!! and i’m glad to have found your blog!!
wowwww, fraty women…..
I think it looks pretty awesome! I like it when people do little hints of playful colors not full on in your face!
Did you get that dye at the grochery store?
*snicker*

I loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove it! I need a new job. One that allows me to have mounds of purple curls atop my noggin!
Damn, I’m fucking horrible at guessing these things.. I thought that white stuff was sour cream and that you were naked the whole time.
BTW, the pink highlights turned out nice.
Loved the hair, but loved meeting you! Thanks for the drinks at the Mom and Pop Sparkle party! It was fun!
cute cute cute hair… what product did you use? i found you when i googled blonde hair pink highlights… i’m looking for a good product to use…
thanks,
Laura
