Color Me A Rainbow, On My Hair!

In high school, we weren't allowed to have colored hair and well, since I would be taking up Nursing in college, I figured I wouldn't be allowed to have colored hair as well. So I promised myself that after graduation, I would completely change my hair color. Just for 2 months. (I know it's really really bad for the hair, but ah wth)

Well after a LOT of arguments and explanations, mom and I finally had an agreement:

Only colored highlights UNDER my hair. Basically, it will only be visible if my hair was tied up or something.

Soooo, when I was on a trip to Taipei, I found some colored hair extensions and tried them on since I really didn't know what color to get and I wanted to see how it'd look like. (I was thinking blue, pink, red or purple.)

Here's a picture of me with the pink extension:

I settled for blue and pink highlights. I wanted it to be bright and bold so my mom and I went to a parlor in a reputable mall in Taipei and had it done. (I didn't really get to get the name. Zzz..)

3 hours later, this is what I got:

*I took a picture of it infront of a really bright light (it wasn't this visible in normal setting)
Well it seemed nice when it's braided, but here's a picture of it when it's actually down:

Not what you expected, huh? Me neither. Judging by their "work of art", I guess they weren't really big on colored hair.

Thus, I don't get the pattern of the hairstylist.

The thickness and brightness of the highlights and the color alternation...

It was just a complete

So I went back to Manila disappointed and all.. and finally convinced my mom that this time, I will have my hair FULLY colored instead. After a lot of time researching, I was convinced that Azta Urban Salon could probably do the trick.

Well, here's my wonderful experience with Azta!
