Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes.

I got a wild hair yesterday, literally, and decided to utterly change my hair color.   I've had to color it for some time now, 'cause of the gray (it's the most undignified gray pattern ever...like a skunk stripe along my center part), but I've been doing it the same way for years and I thought it might be time for something different.

Actually, it's closer to my real hair color, which is a sort of chestnut brown.  I think it's a tad too dark, but I spend so much time in the sun that I'm sure it'll lighten up a bit.  I had Tracy put red highlights in it, so to me it seems pretty gaudy.

Greg likes it though (I think).

I'm doing a small SCA event tomorrow.  It's nearby, they don't have many merchants showing up, and I think it'll be fun.  Plus OMG I need the money...I spent 300.00 yesterday on supplies.  O_O

I bet that'd look fab on you -- blonde complexions seem to work really well with red shades.

Funnily enough, I got more "did you dye those?" remarks in all the years when my hair was natural than I ever did when I was using even some rather unusual deep violet-reds; my real color grows in such variegated streaks, including a couple of really fake-looking platinum streaks at the temples, that people thought it must have been highlighted. ;)

I loved the copper look. It was supposed to be "Macadamia Nut", a dark brown, but it came out a reddish copper.

lol My hair used to be super blonde. Now it's a very dull blonde. If I was out in the sun more they'd have lovely highlights but I don't dig too much sunlight.
