OMG Loooooove the purple!!!

My adjustment's next week and THANK GOD because these light pink ones totally faded and turned a sort of beige orange YUCK!! No more light pink for me! Coffee killed 'em.

I was thinking of going with this sparkley dark indigo they have but maybe I should follow Lisa's lead and go PURPLE??
Heehee, we'll see next week!

Aww.....I'm sad, I had some sort of reaction to the teal powerchain so he said I need to go back to clear for now. I am not sure if I will be able to go back to anymore colored ligs or powerchains. Image I also got a new gold archwire on the lowers because that was where the swelling and blistering was from my teal powerchain.

OMG Now I have to do purple! Heehehe!

I learned my lesson even though I had already been told - those pastel colors just don't hold up and aren't enough of a punch of color for me. I'll only do bright or deep colors from now on. I loved my teal and dark pink I had earlier this summer. The baby blue and light pink did not impress me anymore after 8 weeks of coffee drinking ;)

To those of you who have had smoke colored ligs....

how good are they at resisting staining?

I have pearl colored ligs and have had my braces almost a month and hate the coffee stains! They make my teeth look really yellow when they're really not that bad. GRRR! :x I have also been avoiding curry and red wine, both of which I love, :cry: because I don't want to walk around with nastier stains than I already have un til my 1st adjustment in September.

I have ceramic uppers & lowers with a few metals in the back (but not really noticeable). If smoke ligs stain too, does anyone have any suggestions for colors that are stain resistant, but still a bit subtle?

Thank you!!!!!! :jokerlaugh:

Latest colors... bright blue on top (back in the powerchain) and hot pink on bottom. I've got another adjustment in two weeks! So I may be sporting new colors soon.

That you guys are awesome and make me more brave about colors! I got braces on Wednesday and went straight for colors :D School colors, purple and yellow alternating. Thanks for posting so many awesome pictures of your colors and not being afraid to show off the braces! I'll be back to post some of mine when I get them uploaded.

Hi! I have clear uppers and lavender lowers on my third adjustment. I love those colours! They are far more stain-resistant then my white ligs. They never stain, though I drank choco drink, tea and ate tomyam (Thai flavoured sour spicy soup)... but I still avoid curry because it turned my white ligs bright yellow immediately and the stains are impossible to remove!

Awesome, missytoeaeris! That's so great to hear. It was this thread, too, that inspired me to show off my braces!

I've been counting down the days till I get my new colors and it's finally tomorrow morning! Yay! PrincessMelody - I'm kinda jealous you get to pick out colors again in just two weeks! I love the pink and blue!

Aaaaand, here's the pic! They look really purple in this photo, I guess I could correct that, but oh well - they're actually more of an indigo blue in person.

Currently I have Gryffindore colours, I had finished the harry potter book when I had my latest adjustment so I was like why not? My friend has slytherin, which was unplanned
