Weekend Things

I posted a photo of my latest dye job on Instagram the other day. For those of you who didn’t catch it, I’ve been dying my hair with henna for around a year now. In my video review of the process, I learned it wasn’t quite as messy or difficult as I had read -- and the color turned out great! Then I did a brief follow-up because the color stayed vibrant for several months!
