This is just a quickie (I have a better post coming later after I shower and get coffee. yes, I’m in my nightshirt at 10am.)
I love changing my hair. I also love keeping it the same. Within the past month I’ve gone from hating my hair to loving it again. (I changed conditioners and started using my beloved Redkin Smooth Down again and it’s made a world of difference.)
My hair when born was reddish with some dark. Then, it was just blonde. My mom, dad, and brother all have naturally dark hair. (well now I guess they are all trending toward naturally grey hair.) I went through a phase (a few years) in college where I colored my hair in many shades of dark red and dark brown. It wasn’t ugly by any means, but when I finally went back to my natural zone, the reaction was telling. Everyone, though they “liked” my darker hair (which did indeed make my blue eyes pop) preferred my more natural dark ash blonde with highlights.
I find that I am now afraid to change to anything that isn’t in that zone of blonde.
However, today I was checking the weather forecast for KC on Intellicast and saw something that caught my eye–a banner ad. Yes, this is interesting on several levels considering I work in internet marketing and I know the stats on banner ads etc, but I digress. I was caught by the hair style of the woman in the image. I was thus compelled to use my screen grab tool and save the image.
So here it is:
I’m considering this hair style for myself. Yes, I love my natural hair color with highlights and I am a big fraidy cat now, but…hmmm.
Do it!! But don’t cut those bangs into your hair.
