This is a bit of a random post for me as it is pretty different to the topics I usually post about however I wanted to change it up a bit today.
Like most bloggers I try to dedicate some of my time to improving my Pinterest and I often spend hours scrolling through finding all sorts of inspiration. This is where I got the idea for this post.

With Lockdown meaning that we are currently still unable to go shopping in shops I can imagine that alot of people are taking advantage of the online shops and what they currently have to offer.
Whether that's the latest loungewear perfect for those days spent chilling around the house or for the perfect night out/date night outfit for once all this is over.
This is a first for my blog here but I thought I would share with you some of the items currently on my wishlist.

Ever since I was younger I have always had blonde hair and blue eyes. (Cue photo montage!...)
After having the same hair colour for almost 20 years I decided it was finally time for a change! I had wanted to dye my hair for a long time but could never decide on the colour I wanted and to be honest I was terrified I would end up messing it up and I would end up with some crazy coloured hair but I decided that it was now or never.
I spent hours upon hours researching different ways of dying your hair and different techniques people found worked for them. It was during this research that I found out the risks of dying your hair because of the chemical involved, I'd be lying if I said this didn't worry me! However I knew that dying my hair was definitely something I wanted to do so despite my worries I decided to go ahead.
The most important piece of advice I can give to someone who is thinking of dying their hair at home instead of having it done professionally is to read the instructions that come with the dye carefully and ALWAYS carry out a skin test for 48 hours before dying your hair. This is so important and should be done even if you've used the colour before as ingredients in the product may have been changed since you last dyed your hair.
I did use 2 different colours to get the final colour this was because after the first colour I decided that I still wanted to go darker and colour was similar to my natural hair colour. I have included photos below that show the final result from both hair colours.
