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 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 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 to dye my hair blonde. Turns out, green hair doesn't suit me. 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, 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 decided to redye my hair. And the sink, and the wall, and the toilet seat, and the tub. 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 decided I wanted to dye my hair a medium brown. Little did I know, some jerk switched the hair dye boxes. My hair is now bright orange. FML
Today, I tried dying my hair blonde. I put my hair in a bun and waited for it to dye. I guess I did something wrong, because my hair is now 4 different shades of blonde/orange, along with patches of my natural black hair. FML
Today, it's been a month since the hair dye that was supposed to be temporary is still making my hair tropically green, now with some added roots making it look even worse. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

If you lack the skills to do a job call a friend for help. Or look it up online before you start.

Blue + yellow = green. To get truly blue hair you need to bleach it until white. Any yellow tones left will result in the dye turning turquoise or green.

even if you bleach first you still get blonde and the yellow will turn blue to green get a bleach kit with toner they sell one at Sally's but toner neutralizes the yellow in bleached hair allowing you to get the blue color you want (15 years of personal experience and a current cosmetology student)

Even though I hate spending money, I always go to a salon to get my hair done, to avoid this very scenario. Sorry OP, you'll get it next time!

Maybe if you quickly try and dye your hair firey orange-red you could pull off the Jennifer Lawrence look from X-Men

You were originally brunette, right? You bleached your hair, it turned yellow instead of blonde, you thought the blue would cover that up, so you applied the blue anyway? Nope. Blue + Yellow = Green hair. Your hair must be completely bleached with no yellow. Try waiting till the green fades, and then bleach it again (wait a few months or your hair will break off) and use a purple/blue toner for a few days to draw out the yellow from your hair. Or dye your hair back as close to its original color if it bothers you too much.

When anyone asks say its natural and wipe your hand from your nose to your hair. All 90's kids will remember that joke.

Not all blonde hair turns green when blue hair color is used. If you use a toner it'll counteract the yellow undertones and you can have blue hair.

im going to say you were a blond before you dyed your hair because that's what turns it green.
