check out the new hair!!!

Well... if you read the "fact of the week" thread... you know that i have dyed my hair.... and, its totally diff...

here is an old pic of me....


and here's the new pic.. hehe, i look pale bcuz of the flash.. soo... im really tan acutally... like the pic when i had blonde hair, actually, i wasnt too tan there.. im tanner(if thats a word..lol)

I like it!! i bet your eyes look soo blue!

Either way you are still very pretty

I like it too, maybe add some highlights around your face, (just a thought)

my eyes change from green, to blue.. all the time... now since my hair is dark.. they have been BRIGHT GREEN actually.. i was hoping to get the blue to come out.. but it didnt...

highlites were out of the question when i got it done.. too much $$.. maybe in a month or so.. if i still think i need them..

thanks for the comments..

by the way, im a natural blonde.. never had dark hair in my life... and, it was a total shocker to me to do this.. but i love it!!! just hope the roots grow back close to this color.. and not blonde!!!

still a blonde at heart though... and.... act like one all the time!!

well i have natural very dark brown/black hair and i would love for it to be a shade or two lighter but because its so dark i can never get it coloured! unless i colour it blonde.. i did once it didnt really suit me... then I tried peroxiding my whole hair with it and it turned out orange!!

I like them both! I'd look like such a dork in blond hair but I always wanted blond hair. My sis is a natural blond

It's a beautiful, rich color. Looks good!

here is another pic... its from about 10 min. ago!

I love it!

I want to do the same with my hair, but I am waiting till the semester is done. I want to get some different colored highlights like blond, red and that burgundy to go with it. The last time I had my hair lightened a bit it turned orange and pink so Im a bit nervous.

check out these eyes...



turtlecat- i think they look blue there... maybe they are going to try to be blue now.. who knows!!

They're a beautifully tourqouise.. lovely

You hair looks great I really like it.

My daughter puts her own high lights in she just uses a blond die and tooth brush it works really well and dose not cost much at all.

Green eyes you are so lucky I would love to have green eyes mine are brown

My hubby hubby knows his number is up if I ever find a Scottish man with red hair and green eyes lol

I really like your new colour!

I have kind of the same story I am a natural blond with and touch of red (or chestnut), and at one point in my life (kinda long story, includes a sick abusive ex-boyfriend, very bad brake up, all self esteem gone, end of the road-below the bottom feeling and an up to date in her field hairdresser) I had my below waist long blond hair "cut off" (still have the braid somethere), and many hours later came out wich really chestnut colour hair with 3 different highlights and a gorgous sixties haircut.
I honestly had to re-itroduce myself to my friends and coworkers, since I was unrecognizeable! Maybe I should post a photo from before and after
Anyway, after having sunbathed with lemon juice and cooked bubarb root in my hair for natural highlights, I suddenly wasnt blond anymore, and having brown/hazel/greenish eyes, my "new" colour is so much more MY colour than my own colour! Now I cant imagine myself blond, and besides, sometimes I get my own colour in between, and it has changed, it is not all that blond anymore, its more like the colour I dye it (or I dont have a full dye, I think it´s calles a rinse) is more like sharpening my own colour, but I guess if I gave it time and got blond highlights it would be blond as it used to be.
Boy, am I getting really confusing? I am just trying to say, I like myself better with darker hair than blond, and I would never have believed that, when I was blond.

I usually get just a few highlights over a dye or a rinse, just to get more "life" in the haircolour. Having just a few highlights is nothing nearly as expensice as a full highlights, but really does a great deal.

You guys are braver than I am - changing your hair color. The pictures look great. Maybe I'll get brave one day and try and change what my hair dresser calls my "character" hairs (the grey ones!).

Ooh, I love your new hair! It looks terrific on you!

That's me dyed.

I agree, it takes courage to completely change ones hair, or as it was in my case, beeing at the end of the road Beeing at a point where I just was not possible to be "me" anymore, I was pushed into beeing someone else - the new me If it hadn´t been for all that had been going on, I would never have done this.

Hey I like it too I did the same thing this week I went from blonde to a brown. So far I like it but kind of miss my blonde too...Oh well can't have it all.
