I recently had my hair professionally dyed at the salon. Normally, I DIY because my hair is short and I just dumped the whole tube of hair colour on it with fuss. Moreover, I won over RM1.2K L’Oreal products in a contest previously and had endless supplies of hair colours.

I dye my hair because of oily scalp. When I don’t dye it, I have to wash my hair every single day. With coloured hair, at least I can go for a day or two without washing hairs. Now, I am regretting spending RM75 on hair colours. I could have done the same thing on my own. It was just one plus month and the dark ends are showing. I am not ever going back for my hair to be coloured again because I hate sitting there in the hair salon. It is noisy with the hair dryer plus those bunch of women bitching away. LOL, just hate visiting hair salons, ok?

I just read that many teens are now into dyeing their hair orange, shocking pink, green, blue and etc. So, they are getting allergies due to the hair colour. Just try to read this : para-phenylenediamine, or PPD. It can cause rashes to individuals who are prone to allergies. The pronounciation is hard on the tongue, what more on our skin.
