I had the viral money piece highlights for two years & was obsessed.. Turns out they were the biggest mistake of my life | The Sun

''I just did the roots, probably was some overlapping over the years.

''The last time I had it done was a different brand of bleach, I think that's why,'' the young stunner guessed.
