Why not try one of the off the shelf semi-permanents? They last about 6-8 weeks, and fade naturally, so you don't have the hassle of keeping it up if it's not for you.
      Good luck!

      They can look terrible.

      Best to go to a hairdresser to get your hair dyed the first time.

        How about a blue rinse?

            I might give that a try. What colour works best?
            How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                No - shave your balls instead.

                  When the grey came back I secured a gig.

                  Needless to say, I'm reluctant to dye it again!
                  Took you cautionary advice on board, didn't dye my hair, had a permie interview this morning with grey hair. Turns out they wanted someone to take on a team lead role so the grey hair may work in my favour.., have to wait and see...
