Am I too old to dip dye??!

I am 30. I have shoulder length curly hair, I have recently had a side fringe cut in (I know, I know, I went against MN advice - it looks nice, really! when straight)

I was thinking of doing a dip dye, which I had as a teen BTW, I was trendy before my time, and dying red. I would position it (?) like blonde that has grown out, not just half blonde half dark Xmas Grin

I mentioned I was thinking of doing it at work, everyone said go for it, it'd look good etc - apart from one person. She has filled me with doubts and now I need MN to make a decision for me.

So come on. Tell me. So I can do it tomorrow Xmas Grin

Forgot to add, I am a couple of years older than you and frequently have bright pink flashes in my hair and I don't even slightly worry about being too old !!

Thank god for that!

I know I'm not really, but there's always that one misery guts that puts you off your amazing fashionable idea isn't there? I think she must be jealous of my fabulous style Xmas Grin
