Loving my Brown Hair

I have been such a busy human being these past days, and, this rainy-to-stormy weather is just making things a lot more slow-paced. But, whatever it is, I was able to squeeze in my long overdue hair color. It's just so fortunate that there is a salon that's too close to home. My very first hair color procedure was done at home, but, it was not a success, so I really had to try it on the salon this time. Of course, I had a skin test done weeks ago, just to make sure, the whole beautification procedure will do no harm to me. Thanks, God, I (skin) did not have any adverse reactions. Since my original hair color was deep black, this took almost an hour, but, I am happy about the result.

I paid P640 for this, inclusive of  shampoo, blow dry, hair cut, and iced tea. I find it a lot cheaper than those salons in malls, so i will definitely be a regular patron of our neighborhood salon. So, what can you say about my new hair color? I had to take the photo of myself side-ways, because the color is a lot clearer on the bangs portion.

Review: SHADES by Kolours Hair Color

So, I finally tried changing my hair color, but, I guess, the brand that I used was not good enough for me. Since it's my first time, I was kind of scared of trying on imported brands, and those that has strong scents, so I used SHADES by Kolours. I followed the instructions, but did not go more than 30-minutes (instruction says can extend for 5-15minutes for better effect) for fear that such time could be too much especially for a first-timer like me. When I rinsed-off the solution from my hair, the supposedly mahogany color did not do much, it only turned the few grey hair reddish brown and all the rest still as black as it used to be. But, what I'm happy about is, it did not have any harsh odor, and I did not have any allergic reaction. I am still thinking if I'll use the same brand next time, just extend the time, or try on another. I will have to do a little research for sure. Would you have any recommendations?
