I wanted to write a blog post all about my hair, however all the things running through my mind will just create a big looooong blog post. Therefore I am going to create three separate blog posts all about my hair. This is obviously the first post, this is the one where I talk you through my whole hair's history, so if I've dyed it, how I've had it cut and how it's generally changed throughout the years.
The other two blog posts, will include things like my hair care routine & what I apply to my hair and then my tips and tricks on how to achieve healthy hair.

Okay, so from the beginning...
I was going to add a picture of me as a baby, then I was looking through them and I realised I didn't really have an hair as a baby, so I decided not to bother... as this is a post about my hair history, haha.
This was me when I was in nursery so around 3 years old. My hair was a blonde/golden colour.
This was when I started primary school, there isn't really much difference with the previous picture. But can I just point out, I had no say with the style here. Mum, what was with the full fringe and bob?!
When I was a child my hair was always blonde, in fact if you asked the 5 year old me it would of been 'golden blonde' and for some reason I just wanted to be goldilocks (don't ask)!
This picture was when I first started high school, my hair was a very mousy brown colour. I really didn't like this stage my hair went through because I have just always wanted to be a blondie.
A few years after this, I begged my mum to let me have some blonde put in my hair again. So I had a few blonde highlights.
Shortly after this, I wanted to experiment with my hair style. So I decided to get a full fringe cut in. Yes, this was the biggest mistake of my hair life. I really wish I didn't do it, it didn't suit my face, and it was just very annoying. I only have one picture of this, because I hated it THAT much.
To grow my fringe out, I used to clip it to the side of my face and I did literally wear my hair up for about a year. It was just the hairstyle I used to wear to school. I believe this is why my hair grew so fast because being up I didn't realise it was growing, if that makes any sense.
After I grew my fringe out, I got some more highlights in my hair and I promised myself I would never cut a full fringe in again.
A few years later, my hair was pretty much all blonde, I never dyed all of my head of hair. It was just from having highlights put in and also using John Freda Blonde Shampoo & Conditioner.
This was me on my prom day, so my fringe had fully grown out by now. I was happy with my hair at this point, it was the right blondeness and a good length.
I did do some hair modelling at a hair salon. When I say hair modelling, I mean I sat in the chair and they curled/straightened and did whatever they liked to my hair. So on this particular day, I got curly hair for free.
I went through a stage when I was about 16 where I just wanted different colours in my hair. I dyed my hair myself, I got the dyes from a local shop that did piercings and tattoos. The dyes were: Stargazer dyes and they were semi permanent. I went all sorts of colours, like pink, blue/green and purple. I'm not sure why I wanted these colours in my hair, but I thought it was cool at the time. This was during the summer, leading into college.
I then went through another stage with colour, instead of dying the ends bright colours I dyed it blonde and brown at the ends as a kind of ombre effect that wasn't ombre because my hair was blonde from the top. It that makes sense.
When I started college my hair was just all blonde. I kind of let it do its own thing. It was a lot blonder here, I'm not really sure why. But I liked the colour here.
From here, my other and only blog post carries on with my hair history...
