Brazillian Straightening & FOTD

So, working at a salon, I change my hair all the time. Most recently, as of last night, to be precise. I decided to undergo the Brazillian Keratin Straightening treatment. I've heard MANY mixed reviews about this process, which in its formula has Formaldehyde as an ingredient. However, the smoke from the process was absorbed by a teflon coating over the flat iron, so there wasnt much fumes to inhale.
Overall, the process is not done yet. I still can't wash my hair or put it up for another 3 days. But since my hair is so thick, I don't expect that to be a problem.
I will keep you all posted on my hair, but as of now, it feels so healthy and gorgeous!

On the the FOTD.
I love this look, its a dramatic neutral, sort of. I used a gold and tan to make it light and neutral, but then I went into my crease with a matte black to make it dramatic, and I love it.

I'm Back! New hair / FOTD

Hey guys!
I'm finally back up and running. The problem was that comcast is the only internet provider in my neighborhood, since it's new, and Comcast is a semi new company down in South Florida, and they took over like... I don't know, some other company and they really can't seem to get their shit together.
Not only did I miss posting to you guys, but I also missed a test which I have to take online, so you can only imagine how livid I was with Comcast customer service. For those of you who don't know, I am trying to become and doctor, so my internet needs to be working at ALL times, because several of my classes have tests that we do at home and online, so it was a HUGE deal.
Well, anyways, like I said earlier I have lots of posting to do and I'm getting that situated asap.
Until then, I changed my hair, so have a look at that and the fotd.

Everything is Mac unless I stated otherwise....

Studio Fix Fluid - NW30

Some random lipstick... I think Colorstay by Revlon, but I'm not sure.








So, let me know what you think.
I'll be posting more later, and as always, send me an e mail if you have any questions.

Oh, and for those who are curious as to what is in my hair...
It's all Wella colors, since thats what my salon uses.
I have a dark, deep brown base with red undertones.
The red peek a boos that you see are used with Shades EQ, and they also have a red kicker added, if that makes any sense to you. I'll post more pictures of it later, but it isn't totally done.
The red needs to be deeper, but since my hair was so damaged, the red didnt take fully.

I work in a salon, so my hair changes constantly, but enough of that.
