Spontaneous Colored Tips!

I've been feeling spontaneous lately, so I finally decided to dye my tips! I was so inspired when Lauren Conrad did blue and pink on her tips and I've been wanting to do it ever since. I'm planning on cutting my hair in a week or two, so it will just be temporary, but it's definitely a change for me. A lot of people probably wouldn't expect something like this from me, but since it's for a short time, why not give it a try? I got a great reaction from all my friends, and even though it hasn't totally sunk in that part of my hair is blue, pink, and purple, I'm slowly getting used to feeling like I have mermaid hair haha.

Dying my tips was relatively easy too. I mainly just followed the tutorial from The Beauty Department. I got all the supplies at Sally Beauty Salon for about $40 and then my friend kindly spent 2 hours working on about 12 different streaks. First, you need to bleach the tips, then wash them out and then put the color on, and you're going to want a few different shades of whatever color you want so that you can get an ombre-esque look.

The final turn-out!

What do you think about colored tips? Have you or will you ever try this with your hair?

Hair Inspiration


Lately, everyone is creating new and innovative ways to style their hair, and I'm loving it! Hair bows, rainbow highlights, ombre hair and unique braids are among the hair trends that are becoming extremely popular.

Unfortunately, since my hair is so thick and long, it's nearly impossible for me to pull of the hair bow-bun type of style, but I've listed the link to the video that I watched to learn how to do it, and it's a lot easier than it might seem! As for the rainbow tips on the left (that picture is of Lauren Conrad), I would love to try that just for a week before I cut my hair next time. It's such a fun look, but I don't think I could have it on a daily basis.

Would/Have you tried any of these hairstyles? What's your favorite hair inspiration?
