Dying My Hair Orange! OH My!

Overnight camp equaled FREEDOM! You could decide what to eat in the cafeteria, or what you were going to wear, or if you were going to break a rule. 

The summer before 7th grade the way I exercised my "camp freedom" was to use a bottle of Sun-In on my hair. Who remembers that stuff?
BAD NEWS!!!

I was determined to be blonde and so I used a bottle on my dark hair. What were the results? They were the same results my mom had ALWAYS told me they would be: ORANGE/REF! And not a pretty red a yucky red. My parents seriously didn't recognize me when they showed up to pick me up. My mom had to take me to a professional to get it fixed before school started. We laugh looking back at it but at the time it wasn't too funny. 

I would love to know if you have a "Sun-In" story. Did you exercise your freedom at summer camp or maybe at a sleepover?



P.S. - Isn't my sponge painted outfit with my red ropers seriously AH-mazing!
