I have this salt lamp in my room which I had placed a tealight under because the original light burnt out, I sit rocks I find around it in my window. I noticed there were orange salt crystals forming under my lamp which completely destroyed my candles battery. But the weird part is all my rocks are fine besides this piece of petrified wood. It cracked apart and has crystals growing all over it, the inside is solid black. Sorry if the pictures don’t show the crystals, it was hard to get them to show up on the camera but they’re all shiny and orange like the salt crystals so I’m assuming for some reason the salt started crystallizing on my petrified wood. Does any rock nerds know what reaction caused this? The petrified wood was the only rock affected. I just found this interesting and was wondering the cause.

I want my hair the color in the first pic, I achieved that color with a Kristine Ess toner in Copper Penny, but it washed out within a week. I’ve never colored my hair at home before, besides using a toner or color depositing shampoo. I’ve been researching semi permanent colors but can’t find one that seems to be the exact shade of my hair in the first pic. What color or mixture of colors would work to achieve that shade of red? Please recommend brands as well!!The second photo is the color of my hair now.
