Well, sir, you guys welcome back to my channel and welcome back to another episode of do, as I say, not as I do, although don't do what I say because I'm drunk and I have no idea what I'm doing, although in this episode I'm not drunk, I Just have no idea what I'm doing hi welcome. How are you all I'm not drunk, but I do have a freshly poured glass of wine and I'm a lightweight. So, who knows when this video might go so in today's video, as you guys can probably tell by the thumbnail title, whatever? Probably the fact that I'm shouting about it on social media loads, I'm going back to brunette it's time, it's time, I'm still a timing and eyeing about it, but I can't because I've already got the brown extension, so I can't do much else about it now, yeah. It'S time it's time to take out these ratty extensions, which have been in my head for way too long, I've actually been holding out for a hair appointment on the 28th which, by the time this video goes live the 28th probably have been and gone, but because Of the whole lockdown situation, obviously I'm not going to be making that hair appointment, which is fine fine in general, like it's for the best. But my hair is not fine with it like look at this extension and try and tell me that this extension doesn't need help like please I'm fully exposing myself here, but look at that. That is some growth there, boy yeah. My extensions are rotting as hell. They need to be taken out. They need to be removed. The majority of my hair now, as you can see like some of them, have fallen out, so you can see a lot of my natural hair. It'S a very stunning. Look I'm going for right now, but a lot of my natural hair is brown by this point. Apart from a few little like highlighted bits up here, I've been IMing and eying about it for the longest time, gon na still love my silver hair. So much but it has to go for now. Why is my cat screaming more interesting noise, Michael coming here, I've been having a nying about it for the longest time I've hurried on everyone's head. In with, like the amount of posts I own persons on Instagram like should I die Brown? Should I die it's silver, but honestly, I'm not done with a silver. The silver might come back, but we're gon na get brunette a chance, see it. I ordered a ton of extensions from the usual place that I get my extensions if they have tried these out before, like I have put in a few tapes before just one like a few of them have dropped out in between appointments they're, just kind of like Pop them back in myself, but I've never done all heads I've, never even removed them properly, like I've, just kind of like they've, just kind of fallen out in my head and I've just rolled with it see. I ordered around about 200 grams of these extensions here. They'Re all pretty much exactly the same. I'Ve got them in the shade four dark. So I got these from euphoria one. That'S the same brand of extensions that I have in my head right now: they're, not the cheapest thing in the world, like 200 grams of hair cost me around about 300 pounds, so it really isn't cheap and I'm not about clipping extensions cuz. I just want my locs to be long when I wake up when I go to bed when I wake up when I go to bed, so I thought you know what, if I'm gon na do this, I want to do it properly. So I've got all the gear, no idea. I also picked up a pack of these in the shade 216, so similar kind of brown, but they've got a little bit of blonde running through them. So I thought I may play around with a few of those and then, if I want more than at least I will have actually like hair in my head and I won't be leaving the house of like half my head done. But I might add, more of those we'll see see I've got my new extensions. I'Ve also got the Walker tape. C22 solvin. I saw a few rave reviews about this online, so I thought I'd pick it up. I think it's mostly like kind of oil-based just says: it contains organic wetting agents, petroleum hydrocarbons, citrus oils and lanlan. So a lot of all your stuff and yeah, I mean, I think, that's all there is to it. So, let's take them out good bye. You'Ve served me well the extensions that I love literally. Okay right, I've been trying to hide it on camera, sometimes sometimes even poking out in videos, but literally I've been just holding out for this hair appointment and you just got ta go look. If I duck my head down, look at that loser, thumbnail hi! How are you that is just atrocious, but don't worry my little friends, you're gon na be free you'll, be free very soon by the way, hair dresses, hair, dresses hello. Would you like me to hair model yeah to hairdressers, watching this video? I'M really sorry I'm trying my best I used to be qualified in hairdressing. Guess I still kind of am, but I was like 17 when I got some kind of qualification allowed me to work in salons yeah. I have no idea, I'm doing so like technically. I should know what I'm doing I don't like. This is the face and her of someone who has no freaking idea, what they're doing it's? Fine, it's cool. So the idea with this stuff. I believe I watched a couple of little quick vids online on the old youtubes, oh good bye. Why do I have like a really strange attachment to these pieces of hair that aren't actually mine? Okay? So let's see what this stuff smells like. What stars like orange? It'S nice, I guess that's where the citrus oil comes from seriously. Korona has ruined a lot of things for a lot of people. I will not let it ruin my hair right adios. My friends, I'm gon na use quite a lot because I don't actually have too many tapes left, and I want this to be quick, so I'm just gon na massage that and really try and get it in between the tapes there yeah, I think, you're just supposed To massage it, oh my god, I seriously cannot wait to wash my hair later. I basically dedicated all tomorrow to like just looking after my hair, olaplex hair masks everything I'm gon na give myself the biggest scrub. When I wash my hair, can't wait, let's see how we're doing a lot of these are already kind of slipping. So, let's see if I can maybe separate them a bit okay, if you don't to pull too hard, but I do want to get them out now. Don'T be alarmed by the amount of hair, that's probably gon na look like it's falling out from this cuz. Obviously these have been in my head for a while, so there is gon na be some shedding, so don't look at it and be like. Oh, my god, like Steph's, pulling out all of her hair, there's one where's like half of one, you smell great smile or injure peel me. Why why do I have to like befriend inanimate objects? Why do I cool like hair extensions, my friend or like a highlighter? My boyfriend or something I really should probably go to therapy about that. So then I'm just gon na give it a little tug. Oh my god, okay, guys, brace yourself for a mullet. My natural hair is not a pretty sight because, like it's getting long at the back, but then I had the shorter layers and when it was cut really short, so yeah, it's just mullet central right now. I also bought a ton of conditioner, not anything fancy. I think it's just like hearth licenses or something because some of you said that if you do get like any glue residue left in your hair, then it is really good to kind of just basically just lag your hair and conditioner and then comb out. So I'm prepared I've got like, like, I said, all the gear in between no idea all right. Oh this one's already shifting! Oh yes! Yes! Yes! Yes, yes, like yank on them kind of one like peel, one of them off like so you there and then this one might need a bit more of a tug, but generally speaking, it should come off fairly easy and it's not actually that much hair coming off. Yes wow: this is so then, when it's like this, I'm just kind of holding on to my actual natural hair and it's kind of sliding off. That'S not that much glue laughing they're actually expecting there to be way more. It'S kind of the evening so Ali's actually already gone to bed and I'm seeing up doing this so he's literally gon na wake up and be like. Where did my girlfriend go and why is there a 12 year old boy in bed with me? That sounds really bad. I just mean that, in a sense that I'm gon na have really short, hair and I'd, maybe look like a little 12 year. Old boy sometimes did that make up but shut up stuff. This one is proven to be a little bit more tricky, okay right, another one so strange. This feels like such a wrong thing to do, but it's for the best. So again, I'm just gon na hold on to my natural hair and just give her a little tug and it should come out fairly easy here comes the mullet, oh yeah, they're coming out quite easy. Did I hear some of my ratty hair for you another one? Oh, I literally I look at myself like this. I hate my short hair. I hate like I, don't mind it when I'm short and silver, but short and brown in fact, us-ally. I hate it when it was short and silver as well. I just didn't, like short hair on me, but when it's like just all brown, I'm like who are you? Oh, my god, now I'm scared to dye. My hair brown cuz know it like I'm gon na look boring it's kind of like a weird therapy session. Almost cuz I genuinely I've, had this kind of color hair for years, and I feel like it's more. My natural color than anything else, like a lot of people, probably be worried about dyeing their hair, a crazy color, I'm worried about dying mine and natural color, but in there I think I've started to use my silver hair as a bit of like now, a comfort Blanket or something so the fact that it's all going I'm like, I don't feel very confident like this. I don't know why, because I like gorgeous yeah. This is a very odd situation for me, because I was planning on going brunette professionally, where it's like. Okay, I know Vicki, I know what she does to my hair she's, always amazing. Now I've got ta try and do it myself so yeah, that's always fun right lads, I'm just gon na carry on sprin these because, let's face it, it's gon na take a little bit longer than you guys want to watch. Um see I'm gon na. Take this out and yeah I'll just see you guys when there's a lot less hair on my heads and a glass of wine, oh, that is the best feeling best feeling worst looking. So this is my natural hair. When I say I have a mullet hmm, I wasn't lying. Oh my god. I hate myself for short, hair. So much. I always had comments from people that when I do like a faux bob and stuff and everyone's like, oh, I love you with short hair. I hate it, which is why I'm doing my extensions during quarantine, because but yeah there's definitely been a whole lot of growth. You can see here where there's a bit of like purple shampoo, staining from like the layers that I've been able to see that I've kind of cooled down to go with my extensions. Otherwise, though I mean, apart from a little bit of lightness around the end, it is it's pretty dark now, like I don't want to risk the chance of getting any oil in this hair. But this is the hair color that I've got and it's a pretty good match for ya. What'S done is done no real going back now? Oh, I feel good, though, does feel good to get all of that out. Cuz that was nasty, see right now. I have a lot of regrets because I definitely preferred my hair before, despite how ratty it looked, but yeah, like I said, what's done, is done we move. So my plan is to resume this video tomorrow tonight, I'm literally gon na have a bath douse. My hair and olaplex hair masks the lot sleeping erm do whatever I can to kind of get all the glue out and everything's. It'S not gon na be overly fun for you guys to watch, but actually a little heads up. Why I'm doing if you're curious and then tomorrow, I'm gon na, be dyeing my hair orange yep, because I need to get rid of some of the cool turns around here. Even though there's not too much, I need to put a little bit more warmth back in there before I go in with a brown dye, yeah I'll see you guys in a sec. I cannot wait to scrub my hair and just get right in there. It'S in a minute good morning, everyone from me and my mullets seriously, cannot tell you how good it feels to do this like it feels good. It looks like crap. This is not yes. Hair goes amazing, like this is definitely not hair goals, but it does feel good. I must have washed my hair like eight times last night, getting over at the conditioner. I put olaplex in slept in the old Plex put another hair mask on this morning. Oh it just it feels good, so now it's time to diet, because I need to basically get rid of this lightness here. So what I have to use of that, so I actually got an orange diet originally and then Lorie you're, saying to me stuff. You don't need to use an orange dye. You can just use like a slightly warmer tone Brown, so I went to get some milk this morning woke up this morning with myself, coffee, no milk um. This is how the day's gon na go see. I went to Asda and I picked up this - I'm gon na be using nice and easy I've. Never I'm sure I have used it before in the past, but I haven't used it for a really really long time. It was the only hair dye that was like dairy permanent that also had the kind of shades that I wanted. So what if I got, I've got a number 79, which is a slightly darker brown. It'S actually just called dark brown. Now I've also got 77, which I feel like is a little bit more natural looking for my roots, but then I feel like the dark brown is a closer match to the extensions. So what I think I'm gon na do first or like second, is I'm actually gon na go the lighter brown and then obviously, if I need to go over it again, darker I can yeah first of all, I'm gon na be going in with this shade here, Which is called number 92 Laight warm Brown, so yeah. The aim is to go at this kind of ready, color, which I think it should. I mean I say I know some bits, my hair a little more ashy but like I don't think there should be too much of a problem here and then all the bits that will kind of right under my extensions as well are already fairly brassy, which is Actually, good brassy is actually good for once so yeah. This says it lasts up to 24 shampoos, no ammonia, so it shouldn't like lift my hair or anything. I already did a patch test for number 77, so I couldn't just go straight in with this. Maybe I can maybe I can, but I'm doing anyway, god it's been so long since I've actually dyed my hair at home. Okay, let's get the gloves on. Oh that's good! It says only takes 15 minutes to develop I'd like dedicated hours of my day. To do this, but actually this shouldn't take too long. Okay, lift up open the color formula, bottle number one, this one unscrew the cap from the developing motion this one for all of this. So then I've got ta pull all of this into there. Hmm give it a shake mix, it all up. Flapping, my bingo wings around here got my mushroom hair. Just like moving as I shake it, it's got a mind of its own. The condition does feel pretty good, though I know my hands are still a little bit. Frazzled from the leftover bleach, but all of this up here actually feels quite good, then gon na take this cap off. So I just we're just doing this, I guess got my comb and I'll start from the middle. If my little parting will let me okay. So this is a pretty hairstyle right: okay, um mmm. Do I put it on my roots as well? What do you guys think? I guess I probably should I'm just gon na slap it on. I think, to be honest, we all write it. We go it. What'S done is done, I did sections, then I was just like slap it on. You should probably have some kind of like towel around me shouldn't. I that probably would have been a good idea, but we've already started now. So, Oh goodbye, I don't know I'm saying goodbye because I said goodbye to like the majority of my hair last night, but I want to mostly focus on the ends. I'M gon na go through it all properly and like comb it through and everything, but I just want to put it on the ends and all the bits that are looking lighter, cuz stupidly enough. I only actually got one bottle of this like worth. That'S not enough. Yeah I'm just slapping it and I had every intention to do it like really professionally. But do I look like a freaking professional? Don'T answer that question yeah, I'm just gon na go through the ends and all the bits, but I can like obviously see and then I'll work through the rest of my hair with a bottle. You can already see it's going like a ready, color. You guys know. I hate warmth in anything and makeup and hair, so this just seems so like counterproductive to me, I'm like wait why you had like your head, looks terrible at the start, but it looked a lot better than it does right now. Okay, so think I'm pretty much there, I'm just gon na work it through the rest of my hair. I'M gon na set a time of 15 minutes. What should i and then I'll see you guys in a second cuz? Let'S face it. Nothing. Overly interesting is gon na be happening for the next 20 minutes. So yeah I'll see you guys in a minute. Oh no, you can see those, oh, my god, I'm a brunette! Okay. How am I supposed to like stop the camera recording with my gloves on trying to use my knuckle, I mean we definitely got some warmth in there. Let'S just say that okay, let's die over this cuz. This is not my vibe right now. I don't know that is so I mean that went pretty well. Let me just check the color again. First box, I mean it went darker than what it said. So I think I am gon na stick with like the slightly lighter brown dye, because yeah they still go a little bit darker than what I thought, but I feel like this is good. I feel like this is what I need a little bit of warmth, not too dark and still cover over it. Okay! So now we're gon na go in with this dye here, so I'm gon na section my hair off properly. Now I think so, I'm gon na take from those sections around here. I might do it in quarters or should I I don't know, yeah it's gon na quickly, section off my hair, we're just kind of do it like this realistically I'll. Do the back off camera cuz? I will screw that up if I do it on camera uno dos. No, I lost my clippy's. I feel good about this, so you know I do feel pretty good about this. I'M just gon na take another section down here. I was gon na do it in quarters, but I think I might just do it like this. Okay. So once again, I've got the developer bottle here. Take this color yeah shove it in. Oh god, I just built it. My bad. Am I so bad at everything? If this comes out as a success, I'm gon na be impressed. I'M very surprised, okay, so I'm gon na give it a shake. Literally. I don't think I've had my hair, this dark in so so long. Alright, let's do this. I'M gon na clip that little aside there and I'm gon na work my way through this lovely chunk. Okay, let's go by the way, looks like the majority of stuff I actually got for. All of this was just from Asda. So if you also plan on dying your hair, which probably isn't recommended, but if you do plan on doing it, you can get all your stuff from Asda. It'S all good! Oh! I need to put my towel around my shoulders. Don'T I'm so bad at this man! I'M just sectioning it off and I'm doing my roots first and then I'm gon na whack, the colour all over the ends. Okay, so that's that first section done so. I'M now gon na take some more of this strip. Romsey bottle I'm gon na lag it on the ends and then brush it through properly in a minute but color over it. Okay, I'm gon na get my towel now because I feel, like I'm gon na start making a mess. This looks better. I know it's obviously still really wet and everything, but that looks like more of the color that I want like a really dark cool brown. Yes, please thank you very much, okay, just to save a little bit of time. Otherwise, I literally will just be here for the longest time I'm gon na finish up my hair, I'm gon na go in rinse it and I'll show you guys how it looks in the seconds. Wish me luck ready. Are you ready? Did you like it? It coloureds quite well. Actually it's maybe a little bit that the tiniest little bit lighter on the dry ends where the bleach was but honestly light either. The extensions will cover that up or I'm also gon na get my hair a little trim like once. The extensions are in so I can always like trim those bits off, but yeah look, I'm dark. This is so weird to me. Right now. I haven't seen my stuff with dark hair in the longest time. I think this is the darkest I've ever been like. Since being on YouTube, oh, but I love - it obviously haven't - got like a scrap of makeup or anything on my face right now, but I feel like when I've got my extensions in I got my makeup on. My eyebrows are going in the right direction. This could be a look. It'S not far off what my natural colour was either it's a little bit darker I mean I did go quite a bit darker than what I expected. I, what did it? I mean. That'S the color there so yeah we're like a touch darker, but I mean to be honest, I probably just lights and after a couple of washes but yeah. This is so crazy. So I'm not gon na put my extensions in today. I'M obviously like in this video, but I'm gon na - do them tomorrow with Ollie's so that he can actually fix any mistakes that I make. But I just want to see how they kind of look in comparison, because, obviously, if they're not kind of there, then I will have to dye these a little bit darker okay. So it's a bit lighter. It'S like a tiny little bit more ready, but it's really not far off yeah. I think now, all right. They look fine on camera and obviously they're gon na be a lot more blended. In with my hair, like this, I mean as long as it all kind of blends in properly, which I think it well. We should be good and obviously, if worse comes to worse, I will just dye them all right. So it's more, I'm gon na be doing all of my tape and extensions with all his help, because I mean let's face it: the back. It'S just gon na be a disaster. If I try and do that myself so yeah, I'm just gon na live my swishy short hair life for the evening, and I will see you guys tomorrow, so it is now the next day I haven't cried about my hair, yet which is a good sign. If I'm looking so staid, it's cuz, I may have stayed up until 5:00 in the morning playing Animal Crossing. So now I'm gon na show you guys how I put in my tapes. Now I've actually already put in I'd say maybe like half of them or so I bleached out the entire back panel of my hair. Basically, are you ready they're not cut or anything yet? But, oh my god wait. I'Ve like been walking around look at myself in the mirror, but for some reason, looking at myself in my viewfinder, that's I'm actually a bit more into it. I thought it was gon na be ah okay, so yeah now I'm gon na show you guys I put in my tape. So I have done this before I've, not a full head before I've, just kind of like replaced a few or like I lowered a volume or something to my crown. Yeah I've never done a full head before. So what I decided to do is obviously I did like the back panel of my head's yeah, I kind of like bricklaying it. So I did like two tapes, then three, then four and just kind of like yeah, just brick layered them. I don't really know how else to explain it, but I did that and it all seemed to work quite well. So basically, I've gotten up to here and I've got one here, just cuz. I want to see how it kind of looked so now. I'M gon na show you guys how I kind of placed the ones on the side. I'Ll put it on this sucker that's easier, so I've still got a few packs of these left again. These were in the shade for dark when my hair was dyed. It like I compared to the extensions and I was like it's not the best match, but actually I put them in so I just thought. If worst comes to worst, I can just take them out and, like it'll, be a faff, but I could just like dye them or whatever, but yeah. Now I've put them in they actually blends. I mean not obviously this bit, but in terms of color they actually blend quite well. So that's good. The one thing I will say about my hair being dyed is obviously once I put the conditioner in that you get in like a little box dye. My hair looked so shiny after that, but see they just kind of like they're intended to do that. It'S like a gloss and since washing my hair again before my extensions. I feel like these ends here that Rob's let the dry ends. I might need to give them a little trim just to kind of soften them a little bit. So let me just tell you guys how I kind of like prepped everything I mean, there's not really much to tell you to be honest. I basically washed my hair, but I washed it with a clarifying shampoo and I really really scrub today, because when you got tape, extensions and when you're doing tapes, the last thing you want is to have like conditioner or anything like that in your hair. And then you put the extensions on or just slip after a while see I really try to make sure my hair is like basically as dry as it can be. I don't want it to be moisturize or anything like that. So yeah, that's a little tip. If you guys do do this, I've got my two tapes here and again, if you haven't seen them before, it's basically two little chunks of hair and then they've got double sided tape and you literally just like sandwich the hair in between. So I'm just gon na bring my mirror a little bit closer, so I can actually see what I'm doing see. I'Ve got two here or so. So what I'm going to do is I'm just gon na take a section like so just there's like a little section over the top of the extensions there and they'll just clip up like that. So then, obviously I've got this little chunk here so, like I said, I've been doing kind of like bricklayer patterns, but I think for this bit here because there's not too much hair to play around with here. I'M just going to go above just trying to make sure that I don't pick up the tapes okay, so that should do, and I'm just going to use one of these clips here, just cuz. I find them a lot easier to remove, because I want to hold on to that bit of her bear so obvious I'll. Just lift it up this little piece of hair here. So what I'm now gon na do is like you, literally just peel off the tape and I'm gon na fit it like upside down. Hopefully I can do this, but I maybe not, though so, if you guys can't properly see this quite difficult to the on camera. Yeah, I'm just gon na plop it there. So it's like upside down and I like to just massage it a little bit just to make sure it's basically sticking to these hairs here then I take that down give my hair a little flicks of the hair. Just naturally Falls and obviously because of how I put it against the root: it's not like sitting correctly against my hair. So then I just flatten it my finger and then take my other tape and usually why I like to do before I put the tape on. Is I like to lightly comb over the top I find just makes all the hairs lay down a lot more flat, and that just means it's gon na be a lot more comfortable, so yeah I'll just lightly. Do that and then I like to feel kind of like where that tape is so what starts this? I find, as a trickiest bit cuz it's hard to match them up on your own head, but I kind of line it up just very lightly because basically once these are on they're kind of on, so I very lightly match it up. Just give that a little squeeze I like to sometimes kind of like wiggle them like that together as well, just to make sure the glue is fully stuck to the hairs like in-between and then what I've actually been doing as well, which I find works really really. Well, but I'm not going to do it right now, because, honestly, I can't even to bring my my my extensions. My straightener is from upstairs down here. It'S a flyer says a whole flight of stairs. I can't be bothered yeah what I normally do and I'll just go over them again in a minute when I climb aboard go upstairs is I will literally just like stamp the straighten like that, just like three times over the top, then I go in with these Guys here these are so useful before I'd always use just my fingers just to kind of clamp them in between. But these are a godsend, especially if you do like do the little trick of stamping your straitens on them, because basically it just melts the glue. A little bit and then what I like to do here is just squish it on I mean to be honest, you could just do this and they stay on their own, like they always stayed fine with me before. I even try doing that, but giving myself a little bit of extra summin summin, so I'm literally just squishing, especially the edges just so they are fully sandwiched together and there's no there's no gon na be like any low escapee hairs. Yeah. I just kind of do it like that, and I mean you might be able to see it's not like a perfect match to my natural hair there, but once it is all kind of blended like once I put a love little layer of head and there it Will just blend enough and that's what I'm asking for right now, I'm in lockdown ain't going anywhere. I just want my hair to look nice for myself see you know, I'd literally just do the same, like all the way around my heads, the way I've been doing it all, he actually hasn't helped me yeah, I'm actually quite proud of myself. Thank you. Thank you. I literally just got some very well placed mirrors and just plunk myself down there and just did it from my own reflection, so it can be done. One other tip that I will say to you guys is obviously, if you're the sort of person that likes to wear glasses sunglasses, whatever try and make sure that when you are positioning your tapes or burnt myself and my backlight there, you and your opposition in your Tapes, I've kind of made a point of keeping this bit fairly clear, just so that I can chuck on some sunglasses if I need to they're not gon na get like caught in my fake hair, see what I'm now gon na do is, just literally repeat the Whole process again, like I said, bricklaying all the way around my head, I'm also gon na add a few up here as well. Just to give me a little bit more volume. Let me just show you guys how long these are right now. Obviously, I'm gon na cut them and everything, but look. Oh one other thing I will say, though, if you're like me and if you run your fingers through your hair, like that, be careful with these guys here. If you do want to kind of add more length and volume there just try and make sure that they're, not all too close together, so that you kind of end up jabbing yourself in the tape. So usually once I've done a few. I will just kind of like run my fingers through them and if there are any hairs that are like caught or anything, it's not the most comfortable thing in the world. But you can just kind of run your fingers through here and weave them out a bit. But yeah this is so weird. I'M gon na go. Do the rest of my tapes and I'll show you guys a finished look. I never thought I would like this hair. This much really wasn't expecting to like this as much as I do now. Granted is a few days since I did originally put in my extensions, but I have added a couple more packs, just to give me a little bit more volume around the crown and just to add a couple more little blond bits as well. I went with the blonde bit. I did a poll on Instagram. Most of you said to go with just like all Brown, but err the blonde bit. I love them. I don't know. I just feel like it kind of breaks it all up a little bit like if this was all dark, I feel like it would look very kind of like blocky and one color, so I thought this is a good little idea on my part, I haven't seen Myself, with dark hair in like six years or something but um, this brown, hair, bangs and okay, we didn't even talk about the fact that I did all of this myself like, I think all. He helped me with two extensions and that's purely because I was getting really tired arms and they were at the back of my head, but otherwise I did it all myself. Just very carefully placed mirrors, obviously dying everything you guys saw the whole drill and I have been trimming it a little bit as well. Let me just like show you guys the length so these are, I mean they were originally 22 inches, but by the time I trimmed off like the ends and everything to make it look a little more blunt, they're, probably around about 21 inches. Now that I've washed my hair once as well, the color is actually blending a lot more nicely like originally. This is a lot more ready compared to my like natural hair, but it's actually blended really quite well now, even with the low blond bits, I'm also so happy like I've ever eaten. Think I'd like it. It just looks so much healthier, even though it's like just as dead as it was before. It'S just covered up with brown stuff. It looks so much healthier, like my hair's actually got a bit of shine back into it and I haven't got any products or anything on it at the moment. I really love it. I once even worried about this for so long, because I thought, if we take away my silver hair, then I'm like what I look boring. More people don't have me anymore, so that was genuinely like part of my thought process but honestly, like I couldn't be more test with it. I'M so glad I did this sorry. If I'm looking at myself so much in the viewfinder, I haven't seen myself on cam. It'S like doing everything and having like makeup or everything, and I'm just like you, don't look too bad. Would I do it again? Yes, would I rather someone else, did it for me like I would rather Vicki did this for me just cuz. It took me so long and it was a pain in the ass to do like with my tapes. Everything myself, I don't say like don't get me wrong. I'M really happy with how it turned out, but I know Vicki as a professional will be able to do even better but like if the situation came up where I had to do it again myself and now I can do it and I know what I did A pretty good job but don't eat yourself, and I should not you're doing. Oh it do whatever you want to do so guys. I really hope you enjoyed this video. Hopefully you found it interesting entertaining whatever. I hope you like my hair as much as I do. Like I've already shown Instagram and you guys are all being really nice on there but yeah. I know it's quite a drastic change, but I love it if you guys did enjoy this video.
