I'm pretty sure it's actually from the bleach. Not being a three-armed, twelve-eyed beholder sort of creature and being forced to use the mirror, I'm fairly slapdash with such things, so I intensely-bleached right along the part in my hair and actually had like a quarter-sized spot where it all broke off about half an inch up, and the rest of my hair seems similarly fuckered. I'm using the best bleach I can, but it IS still bleach, so not really great for the hair no matter what. I wanted the blue and purple to really pop well and they did, but...man. It's depressing to brush your hair and have it just kind of fall all over the place.
Not sure whether it will be more fun to just lay off the bleach and colour for a couple months till it all grows out or if I should do the smart thing and attempt to get it back to some semblance of the right colour so that I don't look like a clown. On the other hand, the right colour is mid-brown, and that's NOT going to cover up all this blue. And green. And black. So...to strip the colour out one last time or to not, that's my dilemma.
