Have You Ever Dyed Your Hair?

[angellady07]

Well, I just did. A couple of people call it close to burgundy. It's not as dark as burgundy. It's possible I'm just in denial.......... I don't want to faint. I also have some lighter highlights added. I think I would like the color on someone else just not MY head. I really like the cut, I'm always trying to look on the bright side. Burgundy also goes fabulous with my green eyes.

My nickname from one of my sister's used to be Blondie. Right now she might call me scary. I'll see what I can do.

One of my daughter's has burgandy hair with subtle highlights. I actually like it.  The other daughter has a lighter red with blond highlights.  They both like to change colors as their lives change!   Are you getting use to the color?

[angellady07]

No.

Yes loads of times .. i have been burgundy and punky. Then went to blonde . nowadays i'm more my natural colour which is dark blonde. I have had streaks in as well in the past. I just got so fed up of the high maintanence of being blonde and the expense !!!

[MyssAnne]

Yup. Not lately though, so my gray REALLY shows. The heck with it. Between the sores on my head and the lack of energy, I just plain don't care right now!!! I used to go quite a broad spectrum. I've been burgundy, I've been red, I've been black, too!! That was odd. I like burgundy, myself!!

   My daughter did!  Came up with a burgundy, too.  After about 3 weeks we bought Clairol's lightest ash
blonde and put it on.  You have to have ash to cut the red.  It cut the red out and about a month later we
frosted it.  Blond on Blond. Turned it into a beautiful color.   You do have to consider your natural color.  Her's
was a dark blond.

Love, Mimi

I go dark in the winter and light in the summer, i have the best hairdresser in town, I just wanna give "Ed" a shout out,  HOLLA... I love you my miracle worker

I am a natural blonde. A few yearas ago I had a coupon for free highlights for blonde here so I decided to try it. I read the instructions and went to work. I set the timer for the time I had to leave it in.  Well when the time was about half gone I looked in the mirror and I was orange!!!  I burst out laughing and tried to wash it out.  Package said it was supposed to wash out in 6 to 8 shampoos. I washed and washed but had orange roots for about a month!!  Never again.  Although I have been tempted to go black.  I can just imagine what I would look like with eyebrows so blonde you can't see them and skin as pale as mine!!

I love to color my hair!  I don't remember what my natural shade is but it's dark.....I once got what I thought were reddish highlights put into my hair and it turned out burgandy.  It looked AWFUL on me....she did my eyebrows to match...it was NOT cool!  Needless to say, I didn't go back to her after that.

My natural color is a strawberry blonde that many people (including hairdressers) have told me they've tried for years to get out of a bottle and can't. Don't ask me why, but even after all that I went through a time when I colored my hair quite often. Usually just a darker shade of red, and I had burgundy once or twice. I even had one time when I had funky stuff going on with my health, and the dye only took in horizontal stripes across my head (I always did it myself, maybe that was part of the problem, too). I had orange stripes alternating with my natural color - going ACROSS my head. I think that was the last time I ever did it. I've stuck with my natural color since then!

I was born with blond hair, but as I grew up it darkened to brown. As a young teen, I put lemon juice on my hair to lighten it. Then I found this stuff called Sun In that you spray on your hair and go out in the sun. Then I bought a box of Nice N Easy. I had my hair every style in the world and every color. Straight pageboy, Afro perm,Dorothy Hammill wedge, even long and  platinum blonde. The platinum blonde was awful. The peroxide burned my scalp and root touchups took all day Saturday and cost $40.  About two years ago, I died my hair brown to match my roots. I will never dye my hair again.

I like coloring my hair. Something a little different each time. I was mostly blond all my life but decided a year ago to go dark. Family was a little surprised but I think it matches my skin tone better.

Love colouring my hair, is a good pick me up, in fact did it yesterday and also a bit cut off.

[kitkatz]

My beighbor lady asked me what Clairol bottle I used to get my hair the color I have.   I told her none, it is natural!

I love dying my hair, and getting highlights. I get mine done at the salon, as I will *never* do it myself again, ever.

Been there done that too Angela and me too never again

Would u believe i have NEVER dyed my hair..... i always wanted to but i didn't think any other colour would suit me. I thought i would do it after my transplant for a "new me". Any ideas of what color to dye my hair?

[goofynina]

With those beautiful eyes, i think an auburn would look great on you, 

My hairdresser just did my hair with blonde and strawberry blonde highlights on chocolate based hair, i have gotten more compliments with this hair color that ever before.  Me likey

Blonde?  I cant picture you with blonde hair, do you have any pics, i think the black looks good on you, i'd love to see what you looked like with blonde hair 

[Falkenbach]

I do have pics (from when I was 15/16), but right at moment, my scanner isn't working. As soon as I get it up and running, I'll post a pic.

[Falkenbach]

Oh wait, I found a blonde picture of me already saved on my hard drive, but I was about ..... 4 years old... and scared of an ostrich      

(check out those flares..... it WAS the 70s)

[goofynina]

What the heck were you doing next to the Ostrich?  I would've been scared too, lol,  how cute, i think we should start a thread of pics of us as kids, i think that would be cute, thanks for sharing that pic, hopefully we can see some pics of you as you are older (and blonde)
