edited January 14 in Chit-Chat
... And the famous debate continues! I have naturally light brown hair and a few summers ago I thought what the heck I'm going to try going platinum blonde! I've always heard that blondes have more fun and they seem to get more attention. SO for 3 months I was blonde... and didn't care for it! This sounds weird, but my soul just feels more brunette! lol People told me that I looked good as a blonde but it just didn't suit my personality for some reason. In regards to the attention, I actually got more attention from all as a brunette then a blonde! Hmm in my case, it's brunette power! :heart: :smile: :flowerforyou:

    Depending on where I live my hair color changes...when it darkened I didn't like it so now I'm a bottled golden blonde and I love it!!!

    Blond is pretty, but what a chore! I am so grateful for my beautiful, low-maintenance dark brown hair! No roots to ever touch up, no expensive salon appointments for highlights/lowlights. I am never messing with my hair, I love it!
  • I am a blonde. The onetimeI tried to dye my hair a golden brown...it turned a weird shade of green. So blonde I will be until I turn gray

    Even though my hair is currently purple, I am a brunette at heart :).
    I tried blonde back at the beginning of January, and it lasted about a week before I got sick of it.
  • brunettes way hotter

    i had both hair colors... I LOVED BEING BLONDE i got hit on ALOT lol but my hair was really damaged and it sucked bleaching the roots and making sure everything was the same color...
    i am now brunette ( naturally born this way) and although i miss being blonde it feels like a breath of fresh air.. because if my roots grow in it doesnt matter..

    being blonde i am now on a no heat/ no hair spray trend and i had to cut my hair REALLY short.. :( it used to be really really long...

    here are before and afters..

    i think it would be a nice change, but it's a risky move, especially since i've never dyed my hair before! :o

    I like both. Always go with hair colors that suit your skintone. I was a honey blonde last year, then went to a dark brunette and now I'm a fiery red head <3.

    I've been every hair color under the rainbow.

    I say go for it. Those two shades of red are my preferred color, followed by brunette. Yolo!

    lol kind of true.. when i was blonde and dyed my hair brown OMG!!! AT FIRST IT TURNED GRAY! but then i added a red color to it and it counteracted the green/gray so now its fine lol...
    bleaching was very easy for me though.... so i dont know if i agree the first time i would bleach my hair turned blonde... so... ?? i guess it depends how thick the hair is :)
