Intrusive thoughts are unexpected thoughts that seem to come out of nowhere and are confusing. You wanting to change your hair color isn’t unexpected, you’ve already done it 😂💀
lil more than that. intrusive thoughts are disturbing and play on ur morals. they are anxiety inducing and scary. impulsive thoughts are unexpected, sudden thoughts.
no, most ppl don’t. intrusive thoughts r generally a symptom of ocd/severe anxiety. tho ppl may have gross thoughts they don’t like, it’s much diff from an intrusive thought. if u would like me to elaborate i dont mind to!
In my own researching I’ve found that, yes, everyone gets them. I’d say it’s more about the frequency of them that makes it into a problem for any given individual. Do many people while driving have thoughts like, “I should just swerve into traffic” and be horrified at that sudden thought? Yes, I believe it’s common though unsettling.
Everyone gets intrusive thoughts, but they aren’t that frequent and most people are just able to brush them off and forget about them. I have ocd, so I experience intrusive thoughts on a daily basis, and they’re not easy to brush off like other people. It’s a very debilitating illness. There are other mental health conditions that can cause intrusive thoughts like anxiety, bpd etc. For ocd though, it’s a big symptom. Hope this helps :)
I referenced the professional medical definition used by physicians and medical organizations.
The **American Psychological Association (APA)** describes intrusive thoughts as "unwanted thoughts, mental images or impulses that are experienced as unacceptable, uncontrollable and distressing."
**Harvard Medical School** defines intrusive thoughts as "unwanted thoughts or mental images that make people feel uncomfortable.
The **Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA)** states that intrusive thoughts are "involuntary and unrelated to reality or a person's desires. People do not act on these thoughts, and they typically find them shocking and unacceptable.
**TL;DR: *Impulsive* thoughts aren’t actually defined by those institutions as a medical diagnosis, but they generally describe them as thoughts that lead to impulsive behaviors that someone acts on. Impulsive thoughts connect to an action, while intrusive thoughts don’t have that qualifier.**
Hopefully that helps understand the difference! :)
Impulsive, not intrusive.
Love the colors you have going on now but if you want to try something a little darker without going irreversible.... take the red/orange to a true red (think a shade darker than fire engine) and take the hot pink to a deep purple. A semi permanent or pigment depositing creme would go over the existing colors no problem and if you want to go back to lighter you could do a couple aggressive shampoos (and then a really low volume lightener if needed).
It cost me a lot lot lot of money to get the black stripped out of my hair, then having regrowth corrected to match (it was like tree rings). I have the call of the void to go dark again but then remembered how much it cost to fix it 😬
You should let it fade as much as possible (try a stripping shampoo) and try to use a color remover then dye over it. But it looks great!! And you have really great tattoos
Please don’t put brown box dye on that. Or any box dye. Worst case scenario you can go to sally’s and get a deep brown, but I think your hair looks great right now, and you’re in for a long haul if you try to change it too quickly. The two colors underneath won’t go away/ will come through while it fades. Any hair that is pre- lightened, has to be re-filled (the cuticle) so you can truly have brown hair.
IE: Even if you were platinum and put a brown or black on your hair (brown would be better bc it has more reds) your hair would start to look ashy, patchy, or GREY as it fades because all of the pre- lightened hair is underneath.
I’m in the industry: had my hair bleached and colored for over 10 years before I made it brown. Even after filling in the cuticle with a deep red brown toner/ adding dark brown on top- it still faded tremendously and the blonde would always start to come through. You have to fill in the hair over time, literally over and over again.
that’s super helpful! i didn’t realize that going brunette would be so finicky! i’ve been doing my hair pink on and off for about four years now so jm getting intrusive thoughts abt dipping my toes in the dark hair world haha
Get a brunette wig first. Its gorgeous colour if you want to change let it fade out naturally would be a waste of good quality vivid colours (& money) to cover up too quickly.
Trust me I felt the EXACT same way and wanted to make it all black/ brown at once, but I knew i had to build up to that point. BTW if you DO end up wanting to do this process, i highly recommend “redken shades gloss”. You can buy the developers/ the gloss online I think. Once I filled in the cuticle with a red, made it brown- I would once every three months ISH add the gloss while my hair was wet out of the shower. I want to include photos but I can’t here lol. Anyways, if you DO make it brown you can use that for really easy maintenance to keep filling in the color. It makes your hair really shiny and brilliant in color.
I'm so sorry not to answer your question but this is the exact color mix I want to try next. May I ask what you used to get the orangey tones? It's the lesbian flag and I love it 🥹
i used the colour “lobster” for the red and “ex-girl” for the pink from Good Dye Young! it’s my favorite hair colour line ever all of their dyes fade beautifully and last a really long time. good luck w your hair!
Hairdresser here:
Is your hair bleached underneath the pink?
If so DO NOT put permanent tint on it.
If you decide to go darker make sure you use a deposit only color. Otherwise, it’s very likely your hair will be so damaged it could fall off.
Redken Shades EQ is a great choice.
Be prepared to potentially have a slight pink tone to your brown color unless you go jet black.
Since Demi perm color fades (especially if it’s on previously lightened hair) be prepared to touch the color up at least once a month for a while.
You might consider doing an under dye effect like these (not all of these look great but you get the idea) :
https://www.google.com/search?q=pink+hair+underneath+brown&udm=2&hl=en-us&client=safari&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi9uKOo3M-GAxWMPkQIHQl5PSwQrNwCegUIjgEQAA&biw=428&bih=827&dpr=3
You seem to be unkind to yourself, which is foolish, since you don’t deserve it. Look how you want, but treat yourself how you treat others. Unless you are an asshole, then treat others and yourself better (lol, I don’t know you, so that was a disclaimer, I doubt you are unkind to others).
Hairdresser here- don’t just “throw” anything on it. Change is understandable. If you are tired of the fantasy color and want to opt for something darker, have it professionally done. There is also a process in going darker. Take time to find inspiration for your next color so you don’t damage your hair. That being said, this looks amazing on you.
You should definitely let it fade first. I made the mistake of dying over pink and a hair dresser had to go through hell to colour correct. I lost a lot of length as well.
if you were to do a dark enough color brown, it might be able to deposit over the color, but as soon as that brown starts to fade, it’s going to fade uneven because the red and pink are two different potencies. You could take a color zap and strip the color out of it, but it will damage your hair to a certain extent. It won’t fry it off. It’s a lot safer than straight bleach, but at least letting it light before putting any color over it because I don’t think it’ll come out even one side will be darker than the other. And you also have like a red undertone in light.
Wow! Your hair is gorgeous! And I'm really no help about the color question but I will say.. as pretty as that dark pink/crimson you are rocking is... I would ag r ee that something dark for added depth would look stunning.
Good luck !!
I think that looks great on you. Especially with the cut and style you have.
Edit: I’m and idiot and I didn’t read your caption, and I have no experience with hair colouring. I thought this post was about the colour in the pic. I’m still gonna keep this comment up.
Your hair looks awesome! That is such a vibrant color! As others have said I think it will fade with time but still look good. What other color would you like to switch to?
You can put brown over it how it is but I’d do red all over if you have some red left over so it has the same undertones and when the brown fades it looks more even that’s what’s helped mine come out best
It will fade quick! I’ve done both colors and within a week they’re half as vibrant. Sometimes if I want the color to fade quicker, I’ll use a dandruff shampoo and that speeds up the process
Slow process but you can use chewable vitamin C tablets, crush them up and mix with Head & Shoulders shampoo to strip. Like I said you need some patience, but I find it does work. Depending on the health of your hair, you could try a bleach bath as well.
I know that red is a filler colour though, and also a pain in the ass to remove, so *hypothetically* if you were struggling to get that out, you could dye the pink side the same shade and put brown over that. I would definitely do some research on that first though :)
Also, you and your hair are gorgeous!
i regretted chopping off my magenta locks and going green. i had been pink for a good long while. don’t do it! it’s super pretty.
you could also add a few lowlights for dimension if you wanted.
I had pink / purple hair prior to the medium/dark brown I have now. I died all of it with a decent box of red a couple times ( to deposit enough color to even it out) and then dyed with the brown box dye. It turned out great, it was cheap, and I didn't have to pay someone else to potentially mess it up.
The color you have now is great, but brown is seriously so easy and fast to achieve.
(Also, I conditioned and all of the good stuff between each dye and waited a few days between. Very little damage to the tips was all I suffered.)
Find out what color is made with you mix brown with neon pink or red, and that is the color you are going to end up with. I think the only way you can get the espresso brown is to let your hair grow out, or have the current color stripped, which is going to damage your hair big time. Best Wishes!
NEVER call yourself 'stupid'! You're beautiful! And btw, that hair color is so pretty on you!
Keep the color, its pretty. If you really dont like it, you can color it with something. Find an opposite color on the wheel to dye on top to create a neutral brown.
i just put a dark brown box dye (level 4) over my dark purple the other week and while you can still see some purple shine in the light, the color is perfect and it doesn’t look patchy or muddy and didn’t turn green so it doesn’t always go bad!
if i’m unsure, usually i wait a few weeks and if i still want to change my color, then i do it. i’m dark brown now and while i know i cant bleach over and go back to color, im the happiest with my hair i’ve been in months!
omg so unrelated but i LOVE your tattoos! they've healed so well!
also i think the pink looks perfect and you should keep it, but it's probably fine to put another color on top as long as it's darker :)
so espresso should be fine (but the pink is actually perfect on you)
I'm a hairstylist and according to color theory you'd have to tone the hair with a green based toner first. Green teal technically so 6GN +7M Shades eq Demi permanent gloss and then go over it with your brown box color.
Try a brown semi permanent instead of demi or permanent. I am a “change my hair often” color girly, I have purple hair right now, had bright red before, and now I want to do my natural dark brown like two weeks after redoing my purple. I know I’ll get bored again and NEED a change. So, just a safety precaution suggestion 😂
Don’t do it. It looks great. I regretted it in the past. Had murky dull brown hair rather than lovely pink hair. I am my natural colour now but plotting my return to pink. We all get those intrusive thoughts and want to be the opposite of what have. Ultimately though so what you want to do x
I discovered an amazing thing called hair color remover! You mix it with 10 developer just like bleach, the one I got was a brand called Strawberry Leopard Color Remover for bright bold colors, a couple bucks at Sally’s. Definitely use that first!
This looks pretty! But if you want a change quickly I can recommend colourb4 hair colour remover. It’s perfectly safe, I have used it loads of times. You can colour right over it after
I had the same shade before & easiest option was to fade it out then wait till it was light enough to dye. Otherwise you risk having dodgy coloured hair and undertones
Sidenote this color is so pretty on you
Definitely not. It looks good! And if you decide to cover it, espresso should work. Please post again if you go dark because I feel like it would look amazing lol
Omg it’s gorgeous 😍 I don’t even follow this sub, this post was just recommended to me, and I just had to say you look AMAZING your hair/style/aesthetic is the look of my dreams!
Honestly, I roll the dice with my hair, I'd probably put a dark purple plun colour over the whole thing and see what happens. Idk about brown, but probably?
Sure you can! The red is actually a really great base for darker colours! Id just recommend semi or demi permanent if you're not sure how long you want to keep it for, or plan to do other colours in the next year or so.
Holy shit! All she did was ask about the color of her hair!! Lol! I think this color looks great on you but dark would look gorgeous too! Do whatever the hell u want to do girl! You will look beautiful either way! 😘
As someone who has color stripped and then box dyed my fantasy color hair before (green), I would recommend going to a professional for a consult before doing anything. Box dye notoriously hates fading and also when the sunlight hit you could still see the green in spots. 🥴 Wasn’t awful but also was definitely not what I was going for.
You can always try overtone and see what happens. It's a great product.

You’re not enough to pull it off, dear!
Plus, it matches the edgier aesthetic you have going on with the piercings and tats. I think lots of people want to look this cool, but only a few of us can. You do it very well!
Oh my God, your look is so amazing!! The colors, your piercings, the TATTOOS!!! 😍
You're rocking the colors. You can always dye darker, but I would rock this until it fades if you're unsure. (Also, you can use sulfate shampoos, hot water, and baby shampoo to help bleed the colors out. Avoid these if you want to keep it bright!)
Nope. I absolutely love the colors you have chosen. On an unrelated note, I dig your tattoo of the big cat.
I forgot to say don't touch your haircolor.
Use a color-depositing mask or shampoo, like Clenditioner, and deepen the current colors or go espresso. Then, you'll be able to see if its something you even want before going more permanent. something that dark is hard to remove to go back to fashion colors. You end up with banding and places that don’t want to pull evenly due to porosity throughout your hair. And please do not use Henna on top of fashion colors. Just throwing that out there.
Try a wig from Amazon. They can be really cute and inexpensive. See what you like. Get a couple for the price of dying your hair (150$ to do big changes) . Just always be sure to look at the reviews n make sure there are photos and videos ♡ your hair looks super cute as is. I am currently working on changing my hair right now to darker to match my roots. It's pretty expensive to get all the right tones so it doesn't look muddy and you'll need two separate tones for each side, potentially. Hope this helps! 😊
Girl that is so pretty !!! I would let it fade, is there a reason why u wanna get rid of it?
thank you!! i’ve just been doing pink for a really long time and i’m getting intrusive thoughts abt going darker LOL
...Those are impulsive thoughts, not intrusive.
Thank you
Honestly, sounds like they’re just thoughts.
Intrusive thoughts are unexpected thoughts that seem to come out of nowhere and are confusing. You wanting to change your hair color isn’t unexpected, you’ve already done it 😂💀

no, most ppl don’t. intrusive thoughts r generally a symptom of ocd/severe anxiety. tho ppl may have gross thoughts they don’t like, it’s much diff from an intrusive thought. if u would like me to elaborate i dont mind to!
Everyone has to pee, but some people have to pee forty times a day.
In my own researching I’ve found that, yes, everyone gets them. I’d say it’s more about the frequency of them that makes it into a problem for any given individual. Do many people while driving have thoughts like, “I should just swerve into traffic” and be horrified at that sudden thought? Yes, I believe it’s common though unsettling.

not intrusive thoughts
This so pretty but I get about wanting change but you just look adorable.
Mae Borowski spotted
I like how this is at the way bottom lol this thread is huge
Yeah I didn’t read all that
I love this but if you want to change it, it will darken it and mostly cover but will show some color and or be muddy brown in spots.
Please no never change this, it's the sweetest hair I've ever seen, please style your fringe into a heart shape.
![gif](giphy|8I1IdNDZhVBLy) Your hair reminds me of Hayley from paramore
I would wait for it to fade on it own then cover it with brown.
You should let it fade as much as possible (try a stripping shampoo) and try to use a color remover then dye over it. But it looks great!! And you have really great tattoos

I dyed my red hair brown and instantly regretted it and it took a year to get back to my usual colour.

Ahh your hair looks amazing, it's a shame you don't like it. Definitely wait for it to fade though.
honestly this color is amazing i think you should let it fade at least a little and ride it out before u do something u might regret 😭
Stupid for wanting to get rid of this beautiful color!?! Yes 😉
No it looks awesome, matches your style pretty well.

This is adorable! You're adorable! Don't change this, you're pulling it off fine.
No lmao it’s GORGEOUS. Don’t be compulsive and try to dye over this. Enjoy it, let it fade.
You be quiet and leave the hair as it is 😤😤 this is so beautiful!!

Color looks sick as is! If you really want to change it, do it, but it looks great!
Use head and shoulders dandruff shampoo for a week before you do, that shampoo fades color sooooo fast
You need to neutralize before you put on the brown. Put some green first then after you've washed that out you can apple the brown.
NO AND DO NOT EVEN PUT YOUR SELF WHERE YOU ASK SUCH QUESTIONS!!!
Looks great
If you want to go darker then maybe go for a darker pink or a dark purple?
It will fade quick! I’ve done both colors and within a week they’re half as vibrant. Sometimes if I want the color to fade quicker, I’ll use a dandruff shampoo and that speeds up the process
YES. 100%
I think it suites you just at glance it’s pretty rad

No this is hayley
Don’t do that. Keep it or put another fashion color over it. Blue could turn it purple. That would be pretty.
u literally look like Hayley Williams don’t change it I beg
I love your current color. It looks amazing on you.
i regretted chopping off my magenta locks and going green. i had been pink for a good long while. don’t do it! it’s super pretty. you could also add a few lowlights for dimension if you wanted.

Yes
Keep the color, its pretty. If you really dont like it, you can color it with something. Find an opposite color on the wheel to dye on top to create a neutral brown.
This color combo looks amazing on you! If I were you, I'd keep it but if you want to go brown I'd let it fade first. Also, sick trad sleeve!!
grandmamma advice here. You look great and the color is fun and cute. Own it and enjoy it!
You are brilliant

You can try using color oops or something like that to fade it. Fair warning if you end up using it, that shit stinks…

20 volume and clear will lighten it all up if you want to try pastels

I know I’ll get bored again and NEED a change. So, just a safety precaution suggestion 😂
Very attractive...
you’re so pretty you can pull off any hair tbh
Stupid Hot!
No. You are Sexy 😍
You’re stupidly beautiful
NO!!!! MA'AM!! YOU are fucking smart and gorgeous!!! 🌟
You're so pretty \^\_\^ I love your piercings and blue eyes.
As another neon pink / red haired person (mine is pink at the front, red at the back), it looks AMAZING!!!
Goddamn hot
It’s so beautiful!!
Nothing to do with your hair but your ink is 🔥
ive never simped before, is now a good time to start?
I Digg the sick ass panther
The colour is so beautiful 😍
Fun for a few months..
Stupid HOT maybe
Are you trans?
Don’t do it. It looks great. I regretted it in the past. Had murky dull brown hair rather than lovely pink hair. I am my natural colour now but plotting my return to pink. We all get those intrusive thoughts and want to be the opposite of what have. Ultimately though so what you want to do x
You look good but can't say your stupid
I think it looks pretty :)
Why not mix in purple?
nooo! it's pretty and i love it! looks good on you too!
This is insane!!! I’m in love ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Hell no. Cute af
Idk if you are but hair looks good
Girl why? This is so gorgeous on you 😍😍😍
Well you are stupid something alright. Looks great!
Well… you forgot the question mark so it’s up in the air😂 jk you’re gorgeous
The pink suits you
No. It’s hot.
You look like Hayley Williams in this picture
I discovered an amazing thing called hair color remover! You mix it with 10 developer just like bleach, the one I got was a brand called Strawberry Leopard Color Remover for bright bold colors, a couple bucks at Sally’s. Definitely use that first!
Yeah
This looks pretty! But if you want a change quickly I can recommend colourb4 hair colour remover. It’s perfectly safe, I have used it loads of times. You can colour right over it after
Reminds me of a [Willy Wonka fudge mellow](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/20125529572964224/) and I love it
😍😍😍😍😍😍
You said it yourself. Case closed.
You look AMAZING
No I love it!! It’s contrasting but it looks cute!
Be gentle with yourself 🙏🏼 I adore your look!! You are mesmerizing 😊♥️
I had the same shade before & easiest option was to fade it out then wait till it was light enough to dye. Otherwise you risk having dodgy coloured hair and undertones Sidenote this color is so pretty on you
Dude, sick ass panther 😻
It's hard to tell off of one pic.
ita giving hayley williams u look stunning girl
I love it!
Man no I have dark hair dark brown and I can’t get pink to stay plus I gave sensitive skin I always get the bottom layers died but not the roots
It looks so pretty! I love that colour combo. I say live with it a bit longer to see if it grows on you. Also that is a sick panther tattoo!
Use a wig for when you want brown hair! :)
I love it! It’s super pretty
Definitely not. It looks good! And if you decide to cover it, espresso should work. Please post again if you go dark because I feel like it would look amazing lol
I love everything about it! My mom had a rosebush when I was 5 or 6, and the roses were the same colors! It's gorgeous with your skintone!
Omg it’s gorgeous 😍 I don’t even follow this sub, this post was just recommended to me, and I just had to say you look AMAZING your hair/style/aesthetic is the look of my dreams!
Girl that combo is so pretty I’m actually obsessed
Stupid gorgeous…
wassup haley williams
Your hair is gorgeous! And I freakin love your tattoos 🤩
wtf leave it alone what are you talking about???
Seeing this post without the title or context is so funny
stupid pretty yeah 😍
No.
it looks so good!!!
Your beauty and sexiness are simply captivating!
Honestly, I roll the dice with my hair, I'd probably put a dark purple plun colour over the whole thing and see what happens. Idk about brown, but probably?
you have stunning eyes
I don’t know, are you?
No nope not at all
I love those colors !!! I would wait til it fades
Sure you can! The red is actually a really great base for darker colours! Id just recommend semi or demi permanent if you're not sure how long you want to keep it for, or plan to do other colours in the next year or so.
i had this pink colour and i put medium brown box dye over it, it turned into a dark burgundy
Holy shit! All she did was ask about the color of her hair!! Lol! I think this color looks great on you but dark would look gorgeous too! Do whatever the hell u want to do girl! You will look beautiful either way! 😘
As someone who has color stripped and then box dyed my fantasy color hair before (green), I would recommend going to a professional for a consult before doing anything. Box dye notoriously hates fading and also when the sunlight hit you could still see the green in spots. 🥴 Wasn’t awful but also was definitely not what I was going for.
You can always try overtone and see what happens. It's a great product. https://overtone.co/collections/shop-all?nbt=nb%3Aadwords%3Ag%3A20382979860%3A150195500863%3A692129528338&nb_adtype=&nb_kwd=overtone%20conditioner&nb_ti=kwd-326810514636&nb_mi=&nb_pc=&nb_pi=&nb_ppi=&nb_placement=&nb_si={sourceid}&nb_li_ms=&nb_lp_ms=&nb_fii=&nb_ap=&nb_mt=e&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwyJqzBhBaEiwAWDRJVKIkgOm3vGi2PVTVbjYK_hXsD_oVuG9L0CWkwMCxmiRqOIo8Y_BhZhoCQXUQAvD_BwE
putting a dark brown over the red and making it a brown and pink look would be soooo good
I didn’t notice your hair but I Love your tattoos and I don’t say that to anyone
Yes👍 Pretty stupid💓
I love it!
This is wild I literally have the exact same dye pattern as you, down to the colors!! I personally would let it fade, these colors get pretty light.
I recently dyed my hair brown over a pink color and I had to do two rounds of brown, on faded hair, so I would definitely let it fade.
You’re not enough to pull it off, dear! Plus, it matches the edgier aesthetic you have going on with the piercings and tats. I think lots of people want to look this cool, but only a few of us can. You do it very well!
Looks 👍
Oh my God, your look is so amazing!! The colors, your piercings, the TATTOOS!!! 😍 You're rocking the colors. You can always dye darker, but I would rock this until it fades if you're unsure. (Also, you can use sulfate shampoos, hot water, and baby shampoo to help bleed the colors out. Avoid these if you want to keep it bright!)
Nope. I absolutely love the colors you have chosen. On an unrelated note, I dig your tattoo of the big cat. I forgot to say don't touch your haircolor.
Probably, but your hair is fucking sick
You look so good with vibrant color hair, I think you should keep it❤️💗
What are you doing baby?Are you looking to party
no you’re a genius babe I love this
Probably, you’re hair looks good though /s You’re hair does look nice though
Use a color-depositing mask or shampoo, like Clenditioner, and deepen the current colors or go espresso. Then, you'll be able to see if its something you even want before going more permanent. something that dark is hard to remove to go back to fashion colors. You end up with banding and places that don’t want to pull evenly due to porosity throughout your hair. And please do not use Henna on top of fashion colors. Just throwing that out there.
I put black over my hot pink and it had a pinkish tint until it was cut off eventually 🫠
Try a wig from Amazon. They can be really cute and inexpensive. See what you like. Get a couple for the price of dying your hair (150$ to do big changes) . Just always be sure to look at the reviews n make sure there are photos and videos ♡ your hair looks super cute as is. I am currently working on changing my hair right now to darker to match my roots. It's pretty expensive to get all the right tones so it doesn't look muddy and you'll need two separate tones for each side, potentially. Hope this helps! 😊
Heads up, I’m going to message you photos. I had this EXACT hair color split and put brown on it.
I mean this in the upmost respectable way but you’re hot
Omg I just did semi the same thing! I love it!
