Diary by Jasmine

  Dear Diary Readers, I'm going on vacation for two weeks, so I won't be posting on my blog. For now, I'm keeping my travel plans a surprise. I promise that I'll make it up by sharing my experience in a two-part blog post. Expect to hear exciting details and check out a few photos I will add. I can give out a hint, I'll be traveling to 2 countries. I'll see you in my next post! Sincerely, Jasmine

  Dear Diary Readers, I got my hair dyed red on 6/30 and it came out nice. I used Loreal Feria's Intense Deep Auburn (R48) shade. It was the right shade because I didn't want a red that would be too vibrant, but still visible enough for a new change.  For anyone who has colored their hair, maintenance is important for the color's longevity. Red is one of the most complex shades to maintain, but I'm prepared for it. I bought Loreal's color-protecting shampoo and conditioner. When I'm showering, I will wash my hair under cool water, as cold as I can tolerate to get the hair cuticles to stay closed. This is what keeps your color locked in to stay vibrant. In a couple months, I plan to also retouch my color because I have an extra box of dye that was unused.  I'll share a picture of my hair down below, I'll see you in the next post! Sincerely, Jasmine
