today i am cutting my own hair
[Music]
oh my god okay
i'm gonna do it
how does one ow
i almost cut my finger
i i've done it i've cut my own fringe
made it a bit shorter i tried to tidy it
up a little bit
and this is what i look like
now today in today's video i am dyeing
my hair half purple half pink in the
follow-up to having dyed my hair purple
and then washed this side with function
of beauty shampoo and this side with
head and shoulders the head and
shoulders side washed out a lot faster
so this is going to be the pink side
this will be the purple side and uh
what's that i hear you yelling alex why
are you doing this to your hair why are
you torturing your hair like this please
stop why would you do such a thing
because i like to make people mad
every time i get a comment telling me
what i should do with my own hair it
infuriates me enough to make me want to
destroy my hair even further so if
you're one of these people
it's thanks to you that today's video is
happening but in all seriousness my
long-term plan is basically to destroy
my hair as much as i possibly can and
then shave it off or if i don't shave it
off i'll at least cut it very very short
and start again my natural red hair
pre-bleaching it a few times had not
been cut in over a decade and it was
very dry and damaged because obviously
you know every time you cut your hair
and you let it grow out you get nicer
fresher hair having not cut my hair
ever my hair was very damaged anyway so
i figure let's just
do everything i ever wanted to do as a
teenager to my hair while it's so
damaged and then i look forward to
having a short red bulb and letting it
grow out and be luscious and fresh once
again but that day is not today no today
is the day i will be using etude house
two-tone treatment hair color in the
shade pastel violet and april skin turn
up color treatment in the shade pink now
both of these products say on their
instructions to shampoo your hair and
then apply them to damp hair so time to
say goodbye to the
wolf cut as it is right now i don't have
long because i'm trying to get all of
this done before my husband comes home
so let's go quickly shampoo my hair and
hope that i've left enough time to get
this done so
let's do it
wow that is a weird feeling my hair is
so short now
i just
i just went to do this and i was like no
oh you know what i'm already loving how
much easier it is to dry my hair now
that there's less of it it's actually
a lot more enjoyable gloves
huh i feel like i should change my top i
don't want this top to get hair dye on
it all right i'm ready i have the shirt
on and i've brushed out my hair a little
bit and i can actually see kind of what
it looks like now because when it was
all sort of curly and everything i
couldn't quite tell the shape but now
that i can see these bits are longer
there's a little bit of shorter areas
here and
i have hope that if i uh go to a
professional
the professional will be able to fix it
up nicely for me so anyway let's do pink
first now they say that this is a
treatment and it says 20 different
herbal extracts nourish damaged hair
while giving a vivid color to the hair
so it's not just a hair dye it's a
treatment as well all right let's see oh
it's a lot darker than i thought it
would be wow it's very very very dark
okay look
okay let's go let's do this i'm just
gonna do it like this
oh it smells like cherries i'm gonna say
it's literally cherry scented it's it's
like that artificial cherry scent this
is going through my hair very easily
seeing as my hair is damp now let's see
uh just how much of this i end up using
on half a head of hair a half a head of
not very much hair left
alright so the pink side is done and
it's
quite a deep color actually it's quite a
deep red nervous
nervous anyway i'm very interested about
this one this is the
two-tone treatment hair color and i
don't really understand why it says
two-tone
but on the back it says mystical and
vivid color for two-toned hair in 10
minutes two-tone i i don't understand
what that means so let's find out well
looks like a quite deep purple
it's like blueberry jam
smells really nice
it smells like lollies oh it smells so
good the color is called pastel violet
but this is
looking very very dark
all right
both colors are on now we set the timer
and we wait 20 minutes while we wait i
need to go put the chickens away so come
with me
come on rocky
let's go find the cookies
hello little girls hi

anymore excuse me
sorry i don't mean to be rude don't mind
me sorry thank you
thank you very good
thank you
thanks
lucky uh
you're supposed to be a herding dog you
are a shetland sheepdog can you go herd
those ones please they're not being
obedient
girls little girls
stay away from my hydrangeas
hello
it's time for bed
do you like my hair mango
to catch a chicken
first you have to find some
here's some now
wrap your arms around them
and there you have it you've caught a
chicken or two you know sometimes people
dye their white silky bantam chickens
obviously you'd have to use natural
products so perhaps i should dunk her in
some beetroot juice
i have run out of room for the eggs
i guess i'm having quiche for dinner
[Music]
ah so um here we are
and it's a little bit hard for me to
separate this probably i'm ending up
with some pink on the purple side and
purple on the pink side but i'll figure
it out but um
color
color is not pastel
unacceptable so i'm actually going to
duck back into the shower and rinse this
out
probably one more time uh with some
shampoo i'm going to use head and
shoulders
again because i want to
wash it down a little bit so it's a
little bit more pastel because at the
moment the pink yeah it's a real sort of
cherry kind of pink the purple is
i mean not massively different to the
purple that i used before but this pink
side we've got to get this under control
so
let's uh jump in the shower
[Music]
all right well i have washed the pink
side four times with shampoo i left the
purple side because i wanted the purple
to be a bit stronger and uh
this is the outcome
ah i'm not i'm not overjoyed i will say
that i
don't mind it i i'm happy to live with
it for a couple of days but
i definitely prefer the more pastel sort
of hair and i was really really
surprised that washing this four times
with head and shoulders shampoo
didn't make the color budge it hardly
budged at all the amount of times that
i've dyed my hair jumped in the shower
under the water with head and shoulder
shampoo on and the color has just run
straight off the hair this one it didn't
there was a bit of color and then that
was it and then it didn't budge so i
feel like this pink is going to be with
me for quite a while the purple is
unusual i do see why they call it
two-tone because in some light it looks
a really dark grey but then i shift my
head to a different position and it does
look like a light kind of purple so tell
me what you guys think in the comments
section down below um i had a little bit
too much wine while i was waiting for
dan to come home and uh
wine and scissors don't mix well i ended
up trimming my fringe a little bit more
because i thought oh you know the wolf
cart needs a shorter fringe at the front
to look like it's got more layers and i
ended up kind of ruining my fringe it
was ruined already don't get me wrong i
completely understand and accept the
fact that i've ruined my hair but i
don't care yeah i've ruined the fringe
even more so now so i think a couple of
weeks worth of growth will bring me
through to mid november i would say and
by that point i'll be able to actually
visit a hair salon and have a
professional
fix this situation but for now for
someone that's staying at home not
seeing anyone else
only having
hundreds of thousands of people on the
internet seeing me but i'm not actually
seeing anyone in person so i i really
don't mind if my hair is a little bit
whack the only person that's going to
see it is my husband and speaking of he
did come home uh unfortunately i did not
manage to get all of this done in time
to just greet him at the door with a new
hairstyle he went to come up the stairs
and i was like no wait i'm filming
please stay downstairs he's like okay so
uh he hasn't come upstairs yet so he
hasn't seen the poor thing's been
sitting down there watching
episode one of campaign three of
critical role so he's having a great
time but i'm going to yell out to him
and i'm going to get him to come up and
we're going to catch his reaction
because
he has no idea that i've done this so
without further ado let me set up a
sneaky spy cam
oh my goodness
wow
look it's you
what have you done
you've gone off and snuck away what do
you think oh it's really pretty
did you chop some of your hair too
it's really he's really nice too oh
wow that's really pretty
it's got a real like silveriness to it
what do you think of the new hairstyle
did you chop lots of your hair too
okay
you didn't notice i'm just like is it a
little better or a little bit it's a
it's this much hair
that's a lot of hair say ho ho
all right guys well that's it that's
everything i'm going to end this video
here before i do any more damage because
the longer that i look at it the more
that i want to just do a little bit of a
snippy snip here and a snippy snip there
that's just me being impatient if i just
leave it
for a couple of weeks i'll be able to go
see a hairdresser who can do it for me
properly and uh i'm really looking
forward to that because this is a
hairstyle that i want to hang on to for
a little bit before i go cutting it any
shorter if you keep an eye on my videos
over the coming weeks you will see this
hair dye as it slowly starts to fade i'm
going to be washing it quite regularly
to try and dilute it down to get a bit
more of a pastel color so don't forget
to subscribe and turn on notifications
if you want to hang around the channel
keep an eye on my hair keep an eye on my
shenanigans maybe live vicariously
through me
there's a lot of people that tell me oh
alex i would love to dye my hair but i
can't because of work or i'm just not
brave enough and and they enjoy watching
me do all sorts of crazy things to my
hair so if there's anything that you
want to see me do before i
finally
go short go back to red and just leave
it alone from that point onwards if
there's anything that you want to see me
do before that happens just drop a
comment down below and let me know
because i am so happy to mess around and
uh do some more damage
looking to protect yourself or do some
damage to your hair but for the sake of
skyrim and her people i will love you
and leave you so thank you guys so much
for watching and i'll see you next time
[Music]
