Hi
I haven't posted in this section before (though have taken up many of the tips that have gone around ) but hope someone can advise!
Have gone very dark brown in last couple of months - have had highlighted blonde hair for years but was starting to get rather crispy so went back to natural colour - and I think probably even darker than natural colour the last time, a couple of weeks ago.
However, I am not not sure about it any more, think I kind of suit it, but feel v dull and a bit washed out looking now. It looks a bit sort of flat, though is still shiny, if this makes sense, and in good condition now.
DH remaining silent but says both colours are great, (which means he hates it!) Friends have also said they hate it!
I do suit blonde hair, am quite fair and have blue eyes, eyebrows are medium / dark though.
What I want to know is - can I get some blonde put back in, or lighter low lights iyswim, even just to break it up a bit, and brighten me up too. I don't want the stripy look though!
Have put on an appt with hairdresser tomorrow - though usual girl on hol - so am doubly anxious and tempted to cancel in case my hair goes pink / falls out or something!
The last time, a couple of weeks ago, my hairdresser was a bit reluctant for me to go lighter, said it would be v drastic and we should try it gradually, which is fine.(though not sure why she did my hair even darker this time..)
But now can't wait til next appt to start process, hence appt tomorrow..
Has anyone else gone back to blonde from dark brown, or lightened it a little, without it being a disaster?
Thanks for your help!
PS out with ds in a while so may not get back for ages
