Feel free to read this guys, but it’s not likely to do you any good. Or interest you in any way shape or form. Except Travis, who may want to include information from the comment trail in one of his stories.

Every year just prior to leaving on our trip to Disney World, I get my hair cut. And then dye my hair.

Our first trip to WDW, my hot pink hair with black stripes had faded enough that it needed to be redyed, and I picked out a luscious burgandy that earned oodles of compliments, but also stained everything it touched. For 2 months.

The succeeding trips were varying shades of bright red and more muted burgandies.

So here’s the thing. Hubs and I agreed that I should maintain a semblance of normality for this trip to Walt Disney World since we’re planning on getting some good pictures of us. And while I love the thought of my future children looking through a photo album (or these days- digital frame) and getting freaked out by mom’s blue hair, the inlaws are pretty old fashioned when it comes to things like that. And they sit through our hundreds of photos after every visit.

But. I love funky hair. And I’m too lazy to do the bleach thing anyway. So I’m on the lookout for the best BRIGHT, funky box dye- no bleach necessary. Preferably something in the reds since black fades too quick and is too hard to cover (and hubs doesn’t like it anyway). Something that goes with warm skin tones if possible. And believe me, I know it’s not easy. Usually the more interesting colors lean towards cool tones and purples.

Now- I found a color that I fell in love with from Herbal Essences. Problem is, it faded to boring within a week. An attractive boring, but NOT a fun color. And I have a fear of Feria since my hair practically grows out damaged.

So ladies (and gents if you’re so inclined), please throw me your best suggestions for awesome box dyes. Preferably the number code as well as color name and brand just in case I have to order it.

Thanks very much!
