BB, I know this isn''t the answer you want to hear, but...... I can''t make up my mind!!!
 
You really do look beautiful with both colors, your eyes pop
 
Wow BB.....I am torn...yes, the one who told you to stay blonde....Honestly you look fab either way!I love the warmness of the brown with your complexion.
 
Thanks Linda and Princess D- I feel the same way... I cant decide!!!! ahhhh.. LOL.. for one its hard seeing myself anything BUT blonde... I just dyed it a little more brown.. u cant tell in the pic but it was kinda weird redish.. so note to anyone.. do NOT ask BB to help dye your hair.. LOL I am NOT good at it..

BUT hopefully it will come out just as I wanted it and I might add just a few little blondeish highlights to add some dimension so its just not ALL brown ya know.. ahhhh soo confusing! :-)

I totally understand about it being wierd seeing yourself outside of the blonde hair...I had that happen when i went to my red...it was shocking!At first I thought I had made a terrible mistake...but I ended up embracing the change and playing with various shades of red....it was fun...but ultimately I missed the blonde.... Everytime I made a drastic change, I had enlisted help at Prive (millenia) I have a colorist named Kathleen there...she is so worth it....but oh so pricey (hence why I only enlist her help if I am doing DRASTIC shade changes) but now I am staying my platinum indefinitely (at least until i get bored again...lol)

Personally i think you did a good job from the pics!

Ya I have a guy that does my hair, but pissed me off last time I had him do it for me and didnt do what I wanted, but what he wanted..... so I just get aggravated.. LOL.. and for some reason when I get my hair died by professionals it NEVER stays... seriously like 1 wash and its gone.. and when I do it at home, it stays for a lot longer.. I swear they do it so u come back more often... grrr... hahaha :-)
 
You know what I did ....I basically had them to the color transition and then grabbed a box ( I typically use Feria) and colored over theirs...

Your situation sounds like the last haircut I had there. I was with Angel for a while ( I guess he went to NYC now) but anyway, he totally gave me BANGS (he called it "fringe") when I totally didn''t want them...now I am in the midst of growing them out....

His excuse (well the hair would have broken from the color change anyway----referring to my going back to blonde)

GRRRRR....I also went to Erica once and she was great.
 
Does this mean you are going to have to change your username?

You''re beautiful as a blonde and striking as a brunette. I say try being a brunette for awhile and see if you can debunk the blondes have more fun bit.

Man your eyes popped with the darker hair! I love it.
 
I love the hair color, it looks great and accentuates your eyes nicely!!! Cute kitty cat!!
 
The dark hair DOES make your eyes pop. You are beautiful whatever your hair color is!

And I just want to squeeze Enzo every time I see him. He reminds me so much of my big guy!
 
I always prefer darker hair for the fall...something about the really rich, warm, deep tones makes me happy....fall is my favorite season.

The reason your hair went a little wild is due to the lack of pigment in blond hair. You just really cant but "brown" color on and turn brown...there are so so so many little tones that come together to make the really beautiful shades of brown you see. Hair color is all about science.

Red is actually one of the colors blonde hair is missing. Red is the hardest color to get in the hair in the right dosage, when you want to be an all over rich red head...but it's also the hardest color to strip out. The fact that you picked up a reddish hue isn't surprising at all. Whatever you do, do not add more "dark-dark" brown over the color you have now. Color on top of color goes darker ... so, pick a shade slightly lighter than your goal...you'll end up where you want to be.

Good Luck!
 
I love the dark hair, but I am ALWAYS partial to darker hair so I may be a little biased. Anytime I see that people have gotten rid of their highlights, I think WOW! SO MUCH BETTER!

Then again, I always find brunettes more stunning than blondes......hmm....... I don't think I was of much help! Sorry! But for what its worth, you look great as a brunette!

Omg...do I know the repercussions of stripping the red out!!!! I had to cut some serious dead hair off and use lots and lots of good conditioner!
 
I am so loving the dark hair on you!! You look gorgeous either way, but I think you look more sultry with dark hair.

I hope my shade eventually gets to your color. I just had mine done again this week, and I swear it feels like it's black.

I much prefer the new color!

i am lightish golden brown as well, and while i do get some highlights from sun exposure, for the most part it''s brown. I also color over it (with semi-permanent color) in the winter when the highlights start to fade/grow out in late fall. I really like Clairol Natural Instincts... they have some great colors (my favorites was navajo bronze) and they wash out in 28 washes and very naturally.

what i like most about it is how lovely a match it is with your eyebrows now and how the combo makes your eyes come right out - love it!

I think the brown just really brings out your best features- that beautiful complextion and those eyes.

Your one beautiful lady

I can''t say this for most people, but you absolutely pull off either hair color! You look gorgeous either way. You are so lucky you can play with your look this much. I think you should stick with the brunette for a bit, just for fun, then go back to blond if you feel like it. Both colors complement your pretty blue eyes wonderfully =).
 
I love the blonde hair but the dark hair really makes your eyes pop.
 
Before I read any of the posts I thought your eyes looked amazing with the darker color. Really weird...I was just thinking about coloring my hair dark right before I logged on and saw your post. I''m bleach blond too and I''m just so scared to do it.
 
I thought the blonde was gorgeous!
 
Both brunette and blonde work for you! I did the same thing in July. I was very blonde and decided I needed a change. I went darker than you, but it lightened up a lot as I washed it because of the bleach underneath. I ended up getting some caramel highlights to break it up but I am loving the change. Hair looks so much healthier when it''s darker too. You look great!
 
both look great, but i do love the darker color...the blonde pic looks girly cute and with the brown hair you look older and sultry....megan fox-ish.
 
the dark hair really brings out the beautiful shape of your eyebrows too.
 
I love the dark! I showed the pictures to BF and both of us really like the dark.
 
well - you look great blonde but i love the brunnette on you! it''s so great for the fall.... very nice!
 
hahaha u should change ur name to BrownBunny now!!!
