- I have a feeling he was going to come out really,
really good.
- [Kat] Yeah, me too.
(funky music)
- I've always had black, dark hair most of my life.
I think I've dyed it a few times to get some highlights.
However, when I turned 13,
I realized that my hair started going gray.
And at first it was just like a gray here, a gray there.
But right now it's like a lot.
I literally have more gray hairs than my mother.
And now I have to dye my hair every two to three months
to cover the grays and since I have to dye my hair
I thought that it would be really great
to do a huge transformation.
So a few months ago I was scrolling down TikTok
and I saw a few videos of some girls dying their hair red.
And we're all asking like, where's this color from?
Like, what are you doing?
And they told us that it was from this brand right here,
L'Oréal techniques,
high color highlights,
strictly for dark hair only.
So I have to give it a try.
I was feeling really confident
about dyeing my hair myself.
However, my sister reminded me
that I do have black hair dye on my hair already
so it might not work
and might not be as even as I think it will be.
However, I think it's going to turn out really, really good.
It's going to turn out really, really good.
Really, really good.
My sister Katherine is here.
She knows about hair dyes.
And we realized, well, she told me,
that we need to get, what is it?
A peroxide lift color,
I don't know what it is, I have to go get it.
So now we're gonna go do that.
- My sister dyes her hair black, it's not natural black,
and that's very harsh,
because when you dye your hair with a box hair dye
they can come out patchy.
- [Jessica] Okay, so she got aluminum
because she says that that will help
with the heat of the hair and it'll take the color better.
So we're trying literally everything.
And to protect my table, we have some PV pads.
You also got a cape for myself and for my hairstylist.
You ready?
(funky music)
- [Kat] So these are the measurements from Google.
So let's see.
- [Jessica] You Googled the measurements?
- [Kat] Yeah.
- [Jessica] Are you confident about it?
- [Kat] Yeah.
- It looks like hot Cheetos to me.
In the meantime, I'm gonna add some Vaseline
to my hairline so that it does not stain my skin.
I probably should have gone to a professional,
but you know what?
My sister's good enough.
She took a class.
(dramatic music)
- Only certain strands of hair are taking the color.
- She's saying that it's working,
but it's not really looking copperish.
- No, it's gonna look burgundy, I think.
- I'm just hoping that the longer we keep it in there,
the more it'll, the lighter it'll get,
and the more it'll look like copper.
- It's either are looking like Chuck.
(laughing)
- You're doing amazing.
Thank you so much for your help.
I'm gonna buy her dinner, by the way.
- [Kat] That's too much.
It looks like I know what I'm doing, but I don't.
I'm sorry.
- What do you mean you're sorry?
- [Kat] No, I thought I dyed your face.
- Listen, worst case scenario,
I'm just gonna dye my entire hair black and it'll be fine,
but it would really be great
if I can actually have some copper hair.
Maybe hire a professional, guys,
and don't have your sister do it for some Indian food.
(laughing)
I have a feeling this is gonna come out really,
really good.
Really, really good.
(tense music)
(beep)
Whatever happens, happens, I guess.
Last chunk of hair that we're about to dye.
- [Kat] And then we're going to the roots.
- We still need hair dye for my roots.
And I had my girlfriend get me more,
but this is what she came back with.
It's not even the same color.
(chilled music)
At this point, all I keep thinking is about that pasta
that's in my oven.
I just wanna eat it.
I'm genuinely like, I don't care
if this doesn't really work out to be red,
but my sister's so upset.
She's like, you don't take my job seriously.
This isn't your job.
(chilled music)
We're gonna blow dry it
and see how bad (record skips)
I just caught the,
I didn't even see that.
Another failed attempt at being a redhead.
(jolly music)
At the end of the day, I was like, you know what?
At least my grays were covered, but
they're still there.
(beep)
It is the next day and my hair still looks like a hot mess.
However, from this angle, it kind of looks cool.
I posted it on stories that this is what happened.
And I had a few friends suggest me some people,
and I'm going to someone today
to get it fixed professionally.
Let's head over there and get this fixed.
(funky music)
And this is the final look.
The hair is the perfect,
exactly what I wanted.
I mean, better than what I could have imagined.
I'm obsessed with it
and I can't stop taking selfies and talking about it.
