I know this is a stupid, shallow question, but...
Should I go blonde again? I was blonde several years ago and loved it. I'm a natural brunette, but I look washed-out because I'm on the pale side. (Damn Irish blood LOL!) I have hazel eyes and freckles, and a young enough face to still get carded on a regular basis. And a lot of visible gray for 32...which I'm not too fond of. The plan is to go kind of a honey blonde, with some lighter and darker streaks mixed in. Should I take the plunge???

Opinions please....

1. Red might be a better option.
It'd highlight the eye-tone.

5. Absolutely. It's easy to dye over if you don't like it.
I accidentally went nearly black, once. That was not so easy to remedy...

6. If you can afford it - do it. Tis fun to play with hair color. But be warned
dark streaks should just be a temporary thing. They have linked darker shades to cancer (really) in women who have died their hair for years. Also bad for the hairdresser too.

8. Well, it's my opinion that gray hair is beautiful
and I'd never cover it up.

9. I'm the same complexion and I went strawberry blonde once
and got a lot of compliments. Also maybe try a red henna!

With your complexion, you'll kook good in a dark shade of red. ;)
