A Good Hair Day

This is how I imagine my hair looks on a good hair day:

but it doesn't. Not that there's anything wrong with how it looks, imho:

Yes, I am standing outside the TARDIS

Though I fancy a change. My hair is dark brown naturally, darker than it looks in the above photo. My hair was last dyed nearly two years ago, with purple highlights. Those have long since faded, and even the faded colour is growing out now, so I've been looking at dip-dyeing to cover up the faded ends.

I love the multi-coloured looks I've been seeing on Pinterest:

Though I'm going for a single colour, a bit like these:

Appropriately enough, the colour I've bought is called Very Violet. I'll let you know how it turns out ...

I am aware that this is supposed to be a weight loss blog and the last two posts have been style-related. Truth is, I've put on 11lbs this year, due to health worries, and just being sick of having been on a diet for the best part of four years, so there's not a great deal to say weight loss wise. This blog was always meant to be about more than dieting though.
