Joi's thread about coloring her hair crazy colors gave me the idea that this might be a good source for advice.
I currently color my hair with permanent color from the drugstore. But I recently thought that it would be fun to color my hair with something less natural looking. Hooray for working in theater! (Midlife crisis? ...maybe )
I'm thinking about coloring the underside of my hair (like from the top of my ears down) with Manic Panic. I already use a copper permanent color, which is currently very faded out. My understanding is that if you already use permanent color, you're less likely to have to bleach your hair out if you use a darker shade of MP, say Vampire Red. Besides, I want to start slowly
The question I have is what order to do the color in. My thought was to do the MP first, clipping my top hair up out of the way. Then in a day or two do the permanent color on the rest of my hair. It seems like that way there would be the least likelihood for bleeding or over-dyeing.
Any thoughts or advice?
