I’ve been highlighted blonde for Years. I think I once had my hair a kind of henna red when I was maybe 17. I’ve recently box dyed dd’s hair with a mid golden brown, and it’s kind of come out a glossy gingery auburn colour. She’s much paler than me. I wonder whether it would suit my colouring or not or whether I’d massively regret it. What do you think?? Excuse haggard face Grin

I was thinking rose gold type of thing, I think the other reds are too dark or too red. Where a pp posted a set of 3 pics the 3rd one I thought looked the best. Also, I thought maybe a change of style if you can't get colour right, and loved the quiff. Was the quiff in blonde - difficult to tell as I'm on phone and pic won't come up large. It looked a bit silvery? Probably needs a professional to do that so will mean waiting.

I second pp with buttery warm blonde.

I wouldn’t OP. Not withstanding that you are very beautiful and will look lovely whatever you do, I also think your skin tone would be better suited to a darker colour, like a rich dark brown. I have colouring a lot like the Emma Stone pic and do think redheads always have fair skin otherwise it looks a bit jarring.

All that is secondary to your cat hat though. Think that was my favourite post ever Grin

Well in case anyone’s still around, I did it. On a whim. Obv. I don’t hate It but it’s not quite what I thought it would be Grin and yeah it’s made my face pink. Ah well inly a month to wait til the hairdressers can bleach it back again!

It's kind of neutral, not way better but not worse either...I've had that disappoinment before.
I tried to dye my hair blue last year came out black.
I think you'd really suit this type of blonde.

I think it's too mousy! You need a statement red or proper blonde

Kenworthington · 15/06/2020 16:01

It’s quite on the ginger side in the sunlight

I like it OP! It’s more subtle but suits you.
You have a lovely face.

Shannith · 15/06/2020 20:45

It's pretty good and easy to change, which a henna type red would not be.

Plus you look like a supermodel! Amazing bone structure and lips.

Kenworthington · 15/06/2020 22:04

Haha that’s kind but it must be good angles because in reality I have the face shape of a baked spud Grin @Shannith
