Yeah, the platinum highlights aren't part of the deal, obviously. But for the first time in oh, I want to say 20 years, the "drapes" match the "carpet," as they say in certain circles (minus the buttloads of gray, of course). Not only that, but it's the first time in 15 years that I haven't been some sort of redhead, and THAT'S kind of freaking me out. I mean, I totally dig it, but I've been identified as a redhead for so long that this is way foreign. And it's really trippy how the color changes everything. Par example, my eyes are green, and when my hair's the red, they look olive green. But now with the dark brown, they look almost gray, and that's, like, whoa. Makeup ought to be fun the next time I put it on. Good thing I wear neutrals. I also kind of like the idea that with the brown, I could probably touch up the roots myself between high- or lowlighting; reds are tough to get right.

You know what else I really love? This. EWK used it on me as he was rinsing out the dye, and not only does it smell phenomenal, but oh. the TINGLING. (shudders with delight) Much more intense than with the Aveda stuff. I'm so totally buying some when I need conditioner again.
Oh, whatEVER.
