Any natural(ish) blondes dyed their hair brown and it looked fab?

Don't know whats wrong with me as I have been blonde since the day my mummy pushed me into the world but I am fed up of it. My mother has said she will disown me if I dye my hair brown (well not quite but you get the picture) as she says I am blonde and that is that, I would look horrendous with brown hair but there is a little bit of me that would love to see how I felt as a brunette. My hair is more ashy/mousey with highlights now, nothing natural about it at all!

Anyone gone brown after being blonde forever and it suits you?

i'd forgotten that shorrocks had gone back to it's original name!, i remember it when it was 'falcon's crest'.

OMG Falcon's Crest! I never went drinking in Formby or Southport, just to Liverpool. Those where the days...

Ah the memories lucykate

Shorrocks has been shut for ages .

You cannot get a drink in Formby after 11pm now, I'm serious! (Not that I am often looking for a drink at that time )

Last time I was in the Grapes I met Glen Johnson , he was very nice

my brother used to work in the grapes, many, many years ago. actually, so did my mum come to think of it! i always used to call that place 'the hemorrhoids' after they stuck that huge, metal bunch of grapes to the outside wall!

My hair is blondeish so I dye it to even it out.

I have died mine brown on 2 or 3 occaisions.

DH hates it as it tends to put 10 years on me, so I end up dying it back which totally wrecks my hair.

Wont ever do it again.

lucykate the haemorrhoids were still there until just a few weeks ago!

I think you should all come to me in Waterloo- we have a very trendy Torture Chamber, you know- it all happens after hours round these parts...
