Removing Red to Brown

I was mistaken when I thought blonde hair took a lot of maintenance.  Red hair is unbelievably more work.  After one wash, half of the red stripped out while the other half underneath turned into a red brown color.  Trust me it was not cute! After Before I bought a ion  Color Brilliance Semi-Permanent dye  to cover up the uneven hair.  It turned my hair color a very vibrant red-orange color.  I waited two days before I washed my hair again as I already knew all the dye will wash out and leave me with faded hair.  Below are pictures after washing out the dye.   My red orange hair journey was short lived.  I was determined to get my hair back to what I originally had it; balayaged. I used everything from the ion Color Brilliance brand. Day 1 1.  My first step was to darken my roots.  I used the shade 2NN. 2.  I dyed the rest of the ends a 5A with the blue ion color booster to tone out the oran...

Bleaching Eyebrows

Hello Everyone! Welcome back to ghaneethebugblog.blogspot.com!  A little over a week ago, I colored my hair red/orange/brown as an inpsiration from Hyuna's new song she's featured in called 365 So Fresh by Triple H.  The problem with coloring my hair so much is matching my eyebrows to the new hair color.  I went into Sephora and consulted with one of the makeup artist on how to get eyebrows like Hyuna.  It's soft and light and is an iconic eyebrow style K-Pop artists' have.   Hyuna Traditional Korean eyebrows (Picture taken from a Google search) The makeup artist suggested for me to by an eyebrow bleach kit to lighten the hairs on my eyebrows.  That would be the only way to achieve the light eyebrows.  I already had bleach and developer at home, so I mixed a equal amount of portions together.  You do not need a lot.  I had only mixed a little and had enough for four or five pairs of eyebrows. 10 Volume developer w...

Fresh Deep Hydration Facial Toner

You guys know I struggle with dry patches on my face, which is why I have been trying out many new moisturizer thinking that is the solution to make my face hydrated.  After being told it was not and that I also needed to exfoliate I then splurge my money on a Dior exfoliater.  That helped but I still had dry patches on my cheek area.   This Deep Hydration Facial Toner by Fresh is Ahhhhhhhmazing!  I incorporated it into my routine after my cousins' suggestion of getting a toner to help hold in my moisturizer better.  You will not regret spending your money on this product.  It is only 44 dollars, which is only four dollars more than the regular toner.   Results:    I no longer have dry patches on my cheeks anymore, but I do occasionally get them on my nose area because of the foundation I use.  Do you guys have any recommendation of a non drying dewy natural finished foundation? Let me know in the comments!   ...

Popflex Review

I have been watching Cassie Ho aka Blogilates  for a number of years.  I was so excited when her first design of her active wear came out!  It has been something on my bucket list to purchase, but I was only a young broke teen who had started college.  After the emergent of her Dark Bloom collection earlier this year, I finally decided to invest in her active wears.  This past week I purchased a few pieces from Cassie's Mermaid line and Peony line.   On a side note, I love how you earn points to redeem money off your next order from the website you order Cassie's active wear on; Popflex  Bra Size: 32 D or 34C Body Measurements: Bust 35inch Waist 29inch Hips 33inch This is some of the clothing in her Mermaid line.  I used the sizing chart from the website as reference.  I got both tops in size 6 and bottoms in size 4.  The bottoms runs true to  size however the tops are not consistent.  In the...
