Today, I decided to change my hair color. After waiting in anticipation, I took a shower to rinse out the dye and reveal my new, blue hair. Rinsing revealed not only blue hair, but blue skin caused by the watered dye running over my body. I now look like a smurf, and it's not coming out. FML

Today, I decided to dye my hair blue. The result is slightly different than I expected: my white bathroom is now blue, and so are my skin and nails. The only thing that isn't blue is my hair, which is now green. FML

Today, I thought it would be fun to tint my hair. An hour later, I resemble a blueberry and it looks like a Smurf exploded in my bathroom. FML

Today, I tried dyeing my hair at home to save some money. I carefully followed the instructions but when I rinsed it off, my hair turned a shocking shade of shiity neon green. Not wanting to leave the house looking like a radioactive toad, I wore a hat and hoped nobody would notice. FML

Today, I colored my hair. It was supposed to turn out blonde, but it became more a mix of red and brown and blonde patches. When I tried coloring everything back, a green tint was added. My hair is at the moment red, brown, blonde and green. FML

Today, I came home from a crazy costume party and took a hot shower. When I opened my eyes and saw the water running from my head was bloody, I freaked out and called my friend for help. She had to remind me that for the party, I'd coloured my hair red with washable hair dye. FML

Today, my roommate pranked me by putting blue food coloring in the shower head. I have class in 20 minutes and look like a smurf. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I dyed our hair. His hair came out good. My hair, on the other hand, came out splotchy, and instead of dark blue, it came out green. FML

Today, I tried to dye my hair blonde using a DIY kit I found online. As I was washing out the dye, I realized my hair had turned bright orange. I had to wear a hat all day to avoid being seen in public with a Johnny Rotten fright-wig. FML

Use toothpaste to run out the stain, it really works.

When you dye your hair you should never stand under the water, wether it's a crazy color or natural. you should only wash your hair, either over the sink or over the bathtub or something. YDI

Toothpaste is magical for getting dye off of skin. Mint works the best.

YDI for dying your hair blue.

Don't say that the dye only ran down her skin because she dyed her hair blue. Crazy coloured hair is just a way of expressing yourself, not to try and look stupid. Besides, the same thing might have happened even if she dyed it a natural colour.

YDI. I'm assuming you used box dye, but didn't read the instruction which stated to rinse your hair away from your body and use gloves.

No it didn't, liar, the dye only stains your skin if you literally drip the dye, not the watered down version, on your skin and leave it there. The dye runs down and does nothing if it's watery.
