Today I went in for a routine haircut and came out with pink streaks through my bangs. I've never dyed my hair before, but after seeing my stylist's cool magenta highlights, something possessed me to say, "Umm, can I have that too? Like, now?" Lucky for me, she had a spare 15 minutes and some extra color on hand.
I love how it turned out and can't believe I didn't do it sooner. I feel ready to conquer the world, or at the very least start a pop/punk band.
Note to my readers in the Portland area: I highly recommend Carrie Nicholas at Mascola's Salon. She's amazing and her cuts are less than 50 bucks. Give her a call!

Holy smokes, you look fantastic! So much attitude in the hair AND the "don't mess with me" glare. :-)
HAWT.
How come not blue????
I fucking love it. Seriously seriously love it.
Thanks, dolls!
Lopi--
Hahaha well I thought the whole wearing blue everyday plus blue hair might be blue overkill. Right?
Will you be changing your blog background color to match?
That's awesome. So jealous, but I don't think it work in my really dark black hair. Maybe it would look cool on all of those greys I keep pulling out, though. Hmmmm.
It's perfect! I love it
I just LOVE that!
It looks adorable I love the pink.
You would look stunning with a purple streak I love the way blonde hair looks with purple! ♥
WendyB--
Most definitely. OK, probably not.
Darla--
Next time, I'll do purple just for you!
Squeee!!! You look lovely.
I just dyed my hair as well. Orange.
Silly, I know, but its great.
We should create a cranberries cover band.
We can call it BumbleDaddy. =D
Have your people call my people.
Kissesss!
So adorable on you! Excellent change.
Boom. Also: badda bing.
Yay! Looks superb! Love it.
Fierce! Loves it!
Oh, man. OH MAN. Your hair is hawt stuff! I feel like often streaks of color in one's hair makes it look like the person scratched their head while holding a highlighter, but your 'do looks both intentional and effortless. And the shade of pink makes your eyes pop!
Love it! I had this kinda streak too for a year and a half.
*thumbs up*
As if you weren't hot enough already...this just shoots you right out of the hottosphere.
Love it! Next time do blue!
See, this is why I wish I were a blonde. Not because you guys allegedly have "more fun", but because you can experiment with hair colors with more ease than dark-haired ladies can. It looks great!
Looks really adorable
You look so good like this! Wow!~
I just moved to PDX and my hair is looking, well, rather bedraggled, so I am totally taking you up on that recommendation! Thanks!
OMG! You look intimidatingly cool... love it!

Badass! I love it! I love the way it's layered in, too. It looks awesome!
OH MY GOD. YOU LOOK AMAZING!! Beautiful!!!
Wait - you have never colored your hair before and it looks like THAT?! Um, jealous.
The pink is so badass!
ahhh!! i wish i had the guts to do that. :/
Lol! I just read about someone else last night that dyed their bangs purple on a whim. Spring is in the air....color is in the hair!
Looks great, by the way. <3
Two words. DEBBIE. HARRY.
One more: BADASS!!!
You look amazing! Normally when I think of colored hair I think of "emo" high school freshmen but you look hot!
You look awesome!
i likey. was that really cheap? haha, sorry..anyways i'm loving your hair, i wish i could do something like that but my hairsss brown:( oh well!
Awe it looks great! And silly dark haired people, I think bright streaks of color look amazing in dark hair colors... you just have to bleach the spot first ;)
Jesus Christ you look so good!!!
-anniecat
The color looks great.
love it!
That looks amazing! I very nearly did the same thing with blue a couple of years ago, but my mother did not like the idea of me having bright blue hair in my graduation pictures, so it never got done. I still regret it.
Wow, that looks great! Love the "I'm badass" stare you've got going on with it too!
The problem with colored highlights is they fade so fast - the brighter the color is to begin with it seems the faster they go. Believe me - I've had red, fuschia, turquoise and now violet. If you have dark hair you can use Paul Mitchell Inkworks and then do an "ink manicure" in the shower every couple of days to refresh it - bit of color mixed with conditioner - but don't forget the rubber gloves (Sexy!) to avoid getting colored palms. That's why my formerly blonde hair is now dark brown, to provide a foil for the bright color, and not get stained by the ink in the shower.
You look FABULOUS!!!!
pink is perfect for you!
Love it! You look great. Add a dash of black eyeliner and you'll be smokin'!
Just the right amount of pink, as well. Not too much, not too little.
Excellent.
And even more badass than before! Your hair looks awesome!
You look fabulous!
Girl, you is fierce!!
I'm always very wary of hair colors that aren't "normal" colors, but I really mean it when I say this looks great on you!
that's super adorable!
Yes!!! That looks utterly amazing! Gorgeous Lady W
LOVE! now go star in your very own comic book :)

Awesome! I hope you do check Carrie out. You won't regret it!
KD--
I was pretty scared of coming out looking like an emo freshman, but thankfully I seem to have avoided that fate!
I've always wanted hot pink highlights, but I've never been brave enough to take the plunge...
LOVE the pink streaks - they look awesome! S.
