What colour would you say my hair is?

It's actually quite difficult to take photos of your own head Grin Anyway, is it blonde or brown? I've never really been able to work it out, it seems almost too dark to be blonde, but not quite brown either Confused

Medium ash blonde with natural highlights

PeakyBlender · 02/02/2022 16:46

Light brown. That's not blonde to me at all.

'Ash blonde' with highlights? No. If that was the intention, to be blonde, OP needs to go back.
Joolsin · 02/02/2022 16:54

Light brown

Anystarinthesky · 02/02/2022 16:54

Blonde

icelollycraving · 02/02/2022 16:55

Light brown, not blonde.

Poetrypatty · 02/02/2022 16:55

Light brown. Lovely colour OP

Modernidiot · 02/02/2022 16:56

Dark Ash blonde, I pay good money to have hair that colour.

CobraChicken · 02/02/2022 16:58

Light brown, not blonde.
Agreed. It's a gorgeous colour. And if it's not light brown in some people's opinion, I'm very curious why not and what shade they would give that label to?
stripeyflowers · 02/02/2022 17:06

I can see why you can't decide, OP!

My first response was blonde but on a second look it was brown.

I don't know! It's either dark blonde or a very light brown!

Christmas1988 · 02/02/2022 17:07

Mousy brown

I would say blonde, it has too many highlights (lovely natural ones) to be light brown imo. Similar to mine, just a little darker but I'd still say blonde.

Pbbananabagel · 02/02/2022 17:07

Ahh hello my natural hair colour! I haven’t seen you in a while Grin. I describe it as ‘dirty blonde’, it’s too dark to be blonde but too golden to call brown.

BellatrixOnABadDay · 02/02/2022 17:08

@Christmas1988

Mousy brown
How is it mousy? Mousy doesn't have highlights
HollowTalk · 02/02/2022 17:08

@Cas112

I'd say mousy brown
Can you find a photo of a mouse that colour?
caringcarer · 02/02/2022 17:08

My Dad would call it 'dishwater blond'.

Christmas1988 · 02/02/2022 17:10

I think this is one of those things like that pink/ blue trainer because honest to god I can not see any blonde at all. I’ve looked at the pic far more than I should have.

steelrose · 02/02/2022 17:10

I'd say it was pretty close to this

AColdDuncanGoodhew · 02/02/2022 17:12

Dark blonde I'd say

FrugalFrancine · 02/02/2022 17:13

Blonde

AColdDuncanGoodhew · 02/02/2022 17:17

I'd say it's close to this which is described as dark blonde

What colour would you say my hair is?
Gonnagetgoing · 02/02/2022 17:34

it's an ash/dark/dirty blonde colour which looks like it's been highlighted by the sun over time in areas. Agree with PP looks like it has a touch of red in it too.

I used to have hair that colour before I highlighted it to buggery

TenoringBehind · 02/02/2022 17:35

Light brown or blonde-y brown

Greyhare · 02/02/2022 18:31

I would say dark blonde/light mousey brown.

BiscuitLover3678 · 02/02/2022 18:33

Dark blond
