two toned

I have been growing out my hair for awhile...letting all the years of dye grow out. but this week, i just became plain sick of my natural color. so ashy and mousy. thus the search started for my hair inspiration. I didn't want to just die it a dark brown anymore, and blonde seemed a little too highschool for me. that is when i found pictures of the lovely Lily Aldridge, and i was hooked.

i love her two toned hair and how it goes from dark to streaks of blonde. so beautiful! another inspiration was rumi neely via fashiontoast.

so today i finally did the deed and started on my first dye toward this look. because i still had dye at my tips, i did i coppery brown-blonde first and will go lighter later. here are the before and after results:

a little subtle but it will get better once i dye it again. <3
