Out With the Old, In With The Purple

This is just a fun update. We are currently on our way out of Szombathely, Hungary, We arrived here yesterday after spending a day in Zagreb. I had been getting sick of my old red, now yellowish hair and below the train station ran into a hair dye store. Fun!! I thought I would grab a color that was somewhat benign and enough to blend in with my already natural brown hair. Maybe redish brown, light golden brown, something pretty. The hair color was a little more expensive that we expected and we always have a budget to think about. Until Jason found a box for purple hair dye that was only 15,99 kunas…which translates into about 3$ US dollars. I told Jason that I wanted to go back to a color that would blend. He told me that I was chicken to have funny hair for only a few weeks. So purple it was.
I did have to be careful, however, because the hair color itself could have turned all my hair purple. So we were careful to pick out only the yellow hairs (didn’t get them all) and dye only those. The directions for mixing the color was in poorly translated English, I don't think I mixed it properly. We did it this morning and to Jason’s disappointment, and perhaps my relief , the purple is quite nice and blends well with my brown hair. ☺ Although there are still some yellowish hairs and now some redish/purple ones too - it is much tamer than the red before.
