Input: Text: this happened last night; but i was sobbing too hard to even consider posting about this then. i suppose the fuck up is still technically ongoing, though.

a little background on me --- i have a rare cerebrospinal fluid disorder that manifested when i was nineteen. i've had 16+ brain and spine surgeries to treat it and i'll likely have more in the future. i had two last year alone which required them to shave out bigger portions of my hair than they had in the past. i was distraught at the time and worried my hair wouldn't grow back properly. my doctors and nurses told me not to touch it at all for a year and to give it time to grow -- so i did. during that time, i felt really frumpy and unattractive. it was a big blow to my self-confidence; which isn't really all that great to begin with. 

but last week, i passed the one year mark! as such, i decided to dye my hair. prior to my surgery, i always had my hair dyed and it was one of the things i missed most. however, i've been going through financial difficulties ... so, instead of going to a salon, i decided to do it at home with box dye. 

this is where the fuck-up begins. 

i decided to go with a smokey blue-grey color and i got a bleaching kit to do beforehand. however, as i was doing the bleach, it seemed like i didn't have enough to cover my hair entirely -- since the side they didn't shave out has gotten really long and my hair is really thick. i went through the process regardless and -- surprise surprise! -- not all of my hair lightened. so, my friend and i ran to the store and i bought a second kit to touch up the places that needed it. while there, i also bought a second kit of the color because i knew i'd likely need it. 

we did a second bleaching treatment and it worked! then, we threw the dye on ... and ohhhhhh dear lord, it did _not_ work. it ended up way more blue than the silvery color on the box; and there were patches of my hair that just didn't take the color even though they were slathered in dye. 

at this point, i had already spent far more money than i intended -- and now i had to run out and buy two more boxes to try to fix it. since it ended up so blue, i decided to get two boxes of really dark purple, semi-perm dye from splat. i didn't really care that it wasn't the color i originally wanted -- i just _need_ my hair to be one uniform color, you know? 

so, i start putting it on and ... guys? the dye stains everything. if even a drop touches something, it stains immediately and is hell to get out. it's nothing like the other dyes i was using. i panicked and started trying to clean stuff up while simultaneously applying the dye to my head. while trying to clean, i ended up getting dye on my walls and floors and clothes and ... everywhere. it's just everywhere. 

but, with my friend's help, i managed to get (most of) it cleaned up and coated my hair in the stuff -- staining my ears, neck, and hairline along the way. but since the dye was so concentrated, i figured i was in the clear and that, at the end of this, i'd have uniform purple hair. 

nope. 

i washed it out and i still have a massive blonde patch in the back.  it looks awful. i spent the rest of the night crying until i fell asleep. 

oh, and i have a small chemical burn from all the treatments.
