I've done pink, blue, fire-engine red, silver, violet and every shade of brown there is. It actually cracks me up when I think about all the colors I've done, considering I wasn't allowed to dye my hair until I was 18. Now, this wasn't about parental control or anything like that, just strong encouragement from my mom to avoid processing my virgin hair because the cost of maintenance was way too much for a teenager.
