In this vlog, Natalie Barnes documents her first solo attempt at dyeing her hair dark brown. She explains why she decided to change her hair color, recounts the preparation steps—including buying a brush, dye, developer, and mixing bowl—and admits to forgetting gloves, leading to a messy application. Throughout the video she expresses nervousness, humor, and occasional frustration, while showing the mixing process, application to sections of her hair, and the final blow‑dry result. She evaluates the outcome as uneven but acceptable, asks viewers for feedback, and ends with a typical YouTube call‑to‑action to like, comment, and subscribe.

I've like never colored my hair by myself before, so this should be fun. I've done like other people's hair, but never my own. I'm kind of nervous. I need to wash my hair really bad too, so. I texted her and she told me to get I got this like little painting brush. I got the dye and then I also got developer and a bowl. I guess I'm just gonna do it. I'm really nervous.

My sister's calling. Shh. Can I call you back when I dye my hair? Oh, what color? Brown. What? Yeah, I talked to Brianna and she said to do it. Oh, okay. Okay, I'm gonna section my hair like this. Let me take off my ring. That's probably the first step is to take off my ring. Ah, I should have got gloves. I'm so mad. I'm so mad I didn't get gloves. I mixed everything. I hope this is what I do. I've mixed everything pretty well. It's like a thick consistency and it's very strong. Okay. Oh my god. Ow, burning my eyes. Okay, it's fine, it's fine. I'm just gonna like touch it because I really just don't know what I'm doing. That one's done. It's like all over my neck. I don't know how people do this. I really wish I got gloves. Like, why didn't I think of gloves? I'm probably gonna speed do this and then show you guys the end when I'm done because I'm still freaking out. Okay, let me— let me go. Let me do this really fast. Okay, so I just did my hair. Hopefully I got everything in the back. I'm hoping. I don't know. Oh my god, my hair looks so dark.
