Today, I decided to lighten my hair. I applied the dye and waited 20 minutes. When I went to wash the dye out, the water wouldn't turn on. After my head started to burn, I called the landlord in a panic. Turns out there was a water main break and the entire city block doesn't have water. FML

I agree, your life sucks

You deserved it

Holy crap...I probably woulda poured bottled water over my head or gatorade or whatever I had in the house...lol...I hope your hair is not too damaged and the color doesn't look bad...and if it does I hope it can be fixed at a salon...wow this seriously blows...it would only be half as bad if you had been coloring it darker...but bleach...damn...

regular hair dye won't damage your hair from leaving it on too long. it is only active for so long and it stops working.
bleach on the other hand works as long as it's kept moist.

Yeah- honestly, I would have gone to the firdge and poured tea/milk/koolaid on my hair, anything is better than the bleach. At least then you can put it up in a wet, but sticky, ponytail and go to the store to buy gallon water in a jug.
