I love the second colour, the lighter shades really suit you. Wish my hair looked that good right now!

TheVampiresWife · 02/07/2021 10:27

Second picture! You're so pretty you'd probably look fab with a permed mullet though Smile

EarringsandLipstick · 02/07/2021 10:38

Second for sure - the colour really suits you.

Your eyes 👀 are just amazing!

BrilliantBetty · 02/07/2021 10:40

Longer but lighter! The one with the balayage/ ombre colour is much more flattering. I'd be tempted to take it even slightly lighter

BrilliantBetty · 02/07/2021 10:42

That said it looks like you've got make up & nice outfit on in the second picture so the whole overall look appears better. But what about when hair isn't curled, make up done etc.

ElizabethTudor · 02/07/2021 10:48

Lighter and shorter

Bonjourfern · 02/07/2021 11:00

Definitely the second picture. Cut and colour is lovely. The first pic looks more like a teenage hair style

lollypoppi · 02/07/2021 14:09

The highlights def suit u more, either length is fine.

HappyCamperT5 · 02/07/2021 14:10

Yep second picture definitely

belljar89 · 02/07/2021 14:37

Second picture! You look great in lighter color - I would do the arm length and maybe even lighter than the second picture.

MouldyPotato · 02/07/2021 14:47

2nd. Though nor sure what it looks like unfurled?

IdblowJonSnow · 02/07/2021 14:50

The 2nd pic is a really lovely photo in general so seems easy to say that one.
I'd go a bit shorter too.

66babe · 02/07/2021 20:17

Like both
Second picture is more flattering of you with make up etc
I'd say you could go even lighter and maybe even a little shorter , just to take some weight out
You look fine whichever you prefer

Spunout · 02/07/2021 20:26

Definitely shorter and lighter,makes you look younger.

JaceLancs · 02/07/2021 21:47

Another vote for lighter and shorter

missyoueveryday · 08/07/2021 00:10

Thank you everyone xx

I don't think the pictures are a fair comparison TBH, because you clearly have a lot more make up on in one than the other. Plus there's better lighting, nicer clothes etc.

Pic 2

missyoueveryday · 08/07/2021 17:27

Maybe this might be a better comparison photo? As I've just got my hair straight and not much make up on like the first photo x

Still 2.

SwimmingOnEggshells · 08/07/2021 17:37

Second pic and I'd take another inch off. Lighter colour is lovely on you :)

StCharlotte · 09/07/2021 08:38

Definitely the lighter colour which looks lovely in both pictures. The dark looks very flat and so harsh. That dark colour suits very few people (unless it's natural obviously).

Girlintheframe · 09/07/2021 08:44

The lighter colour really suits you. I think the darker is a bit harsh

rosalindwi · 09/07/2021 20:48

A million times the second. I've screenshot it to show my hairdresser! Did you go from dark to light and was it OK?

AnnaSW1 · 09/07/2021 21:00

Second! It looks like a totally different person Grin
