Being a one income family in the middle of a world wide recession, I decided to do my own home hair colour, amongst other things to try and save money. It cost me a total of $14.00 instead of paying over $80 at the hairdressers. OK, I missed out on a beautiful head massage and getting updates on the trashy gossip magazines but I would rather the extra money in my pocket. I think it looks OK, better then it was anyway and if anything, it looks a lot healthier and shinier.
