Hiya, thinking about the colour I eventually want my hair to be. This picture is not of me, just a woman (I think she may be famous but I don't know who she is lol), but I just wanted your opinion on whether this hair colour is blonde or brown. Thank you! xx

Brown

DollyPartonsBeard · 03/09/2017 17:43

Just to be really unhelpful, I've seen this colour referred to on beauty sites as 'bronde'. (I know Confused)

TattyApples · 03/09/2017 17:43

That's a cool toned dark blonde.

EarlessToothlessVagabond · 03/09/2017 17:43

Looks more blonde in the first pic but overall more brown. Lovely colour though.

WhyOhWine · 03/09/2017 17:43

Ash blonde

DameDoom · 03/09/2017 17:44

Dark ash blonde - it is definitely not brown. Love the second pic 27Harper. A very classy colour IMO. What colour is yours at the minute?

DurhamDurham · 03/09/2017 17:44

I'd say it was light brown, I'd never look at those pics and think it was blonde hair.

MrsEricBana · 03/09/2017 17:44

I'd describe her as a dark blonde but I see what you mean. It's lovely.

JudyBlumeForever · 03/09/2017 17:45

This is my hair colour. People describe me as either being blonde or brunette, it can go either way depending on lighting, what I'm wearing, if the sun is shining, whether I've washed my hair that day.

27Harper · 03/09/2017 17:47

Im currently a brunette (brown). Not super dark, but you wouldn't mistake it for another colour. I think especially in the first pic, it's a dark ash blonde. The lighting maybe in the second pic makes it look more brown imo xx

Definitely dark ash blonde.

whiteroseredrose · 03/09/2017 17:53

Dark blonde!

DameDoom · 03/09/2017 17:53

If you look at the swatches in hairdressers colour books- that colour would be on the cool blonde spectrum even though it looks quite dark. I'd kill for that colour.
It depends on whether you are a cool or warm brunette 27Harper. I love that it looks so natural but I bet it took some genius hairdresser hours as it has been coloured.

27Harper · 03/09/2017 17:56

That's my problem I think, my natural brunette colour is ash Brown, but since I have dyed it several times it's more warm with reddish undertones. It's probably going to take a long time and lots of money to even it all out and get it to this colour xx

Dark ash blonde.

PollyPerky · 03/09/2017 18:25

Blonde without a doubt.

Brown is mid to dark brown.

Bluntness100 · 03/09/2017 18:27

It's blonde, albeit dark blonde, but defintetly blonde.
