i REALLY want to do this, but i have to wait a little until my hair grows out more.. its about shoulder length now. and also, im unsure about my hair color and if i would have to bleach it.. its light brownish in the winter, but dirty blonde in the summer. anyways, if i had to chose colors to do it, i would pick either red or bright pink. =)

You don't HAVE to dye it if you don't want to, especially if your hair is fairly light to begin with! It just stands out more on bleached hair.
And I love the color ideas you guys are coming up with, they sound great!

I would sooooo love to do this right now. Unfortunately, I have to go to court for my divorce in a few weeks, so I'm gonna have to wait

I hae done one of there beforeee!!! I loved it! I wish I would have seen this before though, I have never thought about using tape, I just used a stiff color applicator brush and put the dye on very precisely. It worked, but I was in fear of some of the dye running, ya know?

Here is what I came up with...

Wow, this looks soooo great, I consider to do this too, but I have dark brown hair... If I would do this with non-permanent haircolor in black, do you think I can put another color over it, if it isn´t nice? Gosh........ have u got me?

It was from awhile ago so I might be wrong about some, but I'm pretty sure I used shimmermoss all over the lid, then I used humid, deeptruth and carbon in order to create the darker turquoises. I'm not quite sure where I put them but I played around until I got colours I liked! Hopefully I helped haha

I'm not too sure. It probably wouldn't be very noticeable! How dark is your hair exactly?

and laneyyy, that turned out great! There's more than one way to do it I'm sure, but I think tape is the easiest!

i deffffinatly wanna try this soon.

looks easy, ill prob. use a non-permanent dye first just incase it doesnt look right on me. ive never had anything done dramatic or anything along those lines to my hair ever haha, whenever i do dye it, its a little darker or lighter.

anywho, hopefully i can do it soon, ill be sure to post pictures.

thanks for the tut
