DIY Dip Dyed Ponytail Using Semi Permanent Dye. Photos: Kristin Ess + Lauren Conrad, post designed by Eunice Chun. Tutorial by The Beauty Department here, done on Lauren Conrad. The instructions are for people with lighter colored hair ie NOT brunettes. Post on Guide to Dying dark or Asian hair here. As written in their post:
Beware that this color is not permanent but will definitely stay in light hair for a long time, brunettes for less time. The lighter your hair, the more vibrant. If you’re a brunette or redhead, you would have to have your hairstylist lighten the tips prior to dip dying your ponytail.
DIY Hair Colouring for Dark or Asian Hair. Since I posted a tutorial for dip dying lighter colored hair here (which I definitely do not have), I thought I’d post a really good DIY guide here from Pretty Quirky Pants who has been dying her hair since she was fourteen.

Why I Have a Tumblr Blog
The purpose of my blog has become to catalog unique crafts that I truly love and would do myself. I love the look of handmade crafts - handmade in a good way. My crafts tend to be doable and inexpensive - because I have either done them myself or intend on doing them. "Doable" doesn't mean "simple" crafts, but rather crafts that have tutorials that are clear and easy to understand. *I will never copy an entire tutorial from any blogger because that takes away page views from their site and 99.99% of the time it violates their copyright policy. I also will not reblog a post if the entire tutorial is published without the permission of the original blogger. I will cite, if known, sources for my posts because I believe in giving credit to the photographer/designer/blogger. Also, to act like something is your own idea, when it isn't, is just wrong.
