Thank you everyone for the comforting words and prayers for my brother who's in Saitama. We've received word from him last week and we are thankful to God that he's all good (still a bit worried about the nuclear radiation though, Saitama has been reported to experience radiation 40 times normal levels).
Anyway, I'm terribly sorry for being unable to visit my favorite blogs and for not updating my home page. I've received query emails on how the Revlon Colorsilk in Light Ash Brown (50) fares on the locks after a few months.
Revlon Colorsilk 50 after 1 1/2 months |
I actually think that the salon who applied the dye didn't do as superb as my Revlon colorist, Joanne did (Revlon hold FREE hair dye application you see) |
You will notice that my roots are starting to turn black again. The dye is not drying to the scalp, but I noticed that my hair needed extra care after I had it colored. I take extra time conditioning my locks to make sure that my hair still looks vibrant, fresh and nice.
I've been dyeing my hair for almost 2 years now and I see a positivity in my aura with this kind of color. I'm beginning to feel that I am addicted to Revlon's Colorsilk dye!

Having my hair colored is among the greatest makeovers I did to myself. My folks didn't quite get it as they seemed to prefer their natural daughter (LOL) over the blondie* girl. My friends, colleagues, and bf raved about my new hair color, though.
I have nothing but high praises for Revlon Colorsilk. It's a cheap product (395php) that can transform your looks in the most pleasing way!
*blondie - Filipino monicker for someone who's got their hair colored... even if it ain't true blonde ;)
sweet corn - my folks' monicker for Filipinas who had their hair dyed blonde
Me too I am a Revlon Colorsilk user after L'Oreal Feria! Its inexpensive and I love how the color looks on my hair and it doesn't dry my hair out! Even my hair stylist asked why my hair does not tangle up even after coloring!
i love revlon colorsilk too :) Parang ang tagal na since pinadye ko sya (yung sa mall haha) and it's still a-ok till now! :))) I guess the parentals will always be like that, ganun din sila mommy ayaw na "blondie" ako ahhaha :D
was thinking of getting my hair dyed too! but i have never tried dyeing it myself *shuddered*
Argie, glad to know your brother's okay. Hoping he'll stay safe until the situation gets better. :)
You look cute on the pics. :P
lovely makeover! I really wanna color my hair, but sadly my mom won't let me :(
Hope your brother continues to be okay in japan!
I'm really confused. What did you use the first time you dyed your hair? Light Golden Brown 54 or Light Ash Brown #54?
I used 54, Light Golden Brown the very first time :)
50, Light Ash brown came in during the succeeding trips to Revlon :)
Hi! I really love your write ups, i find it informative. Right now im really looking for best hair dye/color that will surely take effect on me. Been tested hortaleza's golden blonde but no signs of blondie hair on me!): Ahm really wondering if i will try this revlon colorsilk coz im afraid that i will mess up again.. Any suggestions? Thanks!
I think it's bets to consult an experienced colorist. In my case, I met the one who recommended a good color that showed up nicely on my virgin-black hair, during Revlon's Free Coloring Sessions at Rob Galleria. (they go around Trinoma and other malls, SM Makati, etc, too!
I would have to know your present hair color to make a recommendation (but not foolproof, btw, coz im no expert).
Do you know when a revlon colorsilk will expire? do you know where I can see the expiry date? Hope you could help me out. Thanks so much!
Hello, how long did you leave it in your hair the first time you dyed it? I hope you an reply asap :) I have black hair, planning to dye it using 54 as well. Pero 425 dito, ang mahal yikes. Thanks :D
1 hour with a shower cap on! Good luck! :)
