    Natural highlights darling - via sunshine plus some genetics - Irish heritage meets Native American produces some auburn tresses!

    Dramatic change?? I dropped the hair coloring 2 years before I lost the weight. Now I rock the "going gray" look 30 lbs lighter than the last time I was blonde. I'd rather spend my money on running gear than dole it out to the hair salon.

    I dunno, I've seen this too, but I've also got plenty of awkward pictures proving the existence of a darned chunky blonde in my past lol so I'm thinking it's not the hair color just the desire to make big changes? I went darker previously after losing weight :)

    I change my hair color all the time and it has nothing to do with my weight loss (or lack thereof). I just need to change *something* every few months, and hair color is the easiest thing to do. Right now it's red with blonde highlights, but in a couple of weeks it will be blonde on top with black underneath, lol.

    I've done this one before, but the other way around haha.

    i'm the opposite. i'm naturally blonde and dye my hair black... although it had more to do with covering up purple hair for a new job than losing weight (i'm nowhere near finished yet). the general consensus is that i look better with just about any color than my natural color and i agree, so i just keep the blonde at bay

    That's weird. Everyone I know keep whatever hair color they have. I started dying my hair freshman year, I kept it blonde cause I look better with blonde.

    I assume it's because some people over weight don't care too much about their appearance. So they decide to make a whole new them when they lose weight, and they realize they love the blonde hair so they just keep it.

    Ha, me too. I'm a natural blonde and go much darker. Suits me better.

    Personally, I just change my haircolor a lot. My natural color is dirty blond, but it's a boring color.

    My natural color is golden/dirty blonde. I used to always keep it light blonde just loved the color. I like to add fun colors in like pinks,purple,black, red,teal here and there. But lately the easiest and most healthy for my locks is leaving it alone. So that is what I am doing weight loss or no weight loss.

    My natural colour is dark ash blonde but I keep it golden blonde because my natural colour is such a blah shade of blonde.

    It's an odd trend, but the ONLY reason I would bleach my hair would be if I was planning on dying it a crazy color. However, bleaching out black is a pain in the *kitten*. I actually dyed my roots red last night, but it looks more orange to me right now.

    I've never dyed my hair. It just gets more gray, and gloriously so.

    Natural blonde here. I refuse to spend money on something as silly as hair color.

    Yes my topic is strange, maybe just becaseu when i see some history, when i google it, when i see videos of weight loss transformation, the most of them have also change hair color to blonde.

    That means i will became blonde in the future? lol
    Don't knoW! I have a darker hair!

    I've been dying my hair blonde for a couple of years... nothing with weight loss but it stands out and it looks good on me... blonde hair brings out the fun adventurous side of me... I love it...

    I just dyed my hair brunette last night lol. I had been blonde for a year, but I am sick of the upkeep. I dye it at home, so it's not expensive, just a pain in the *kitten*.

    I haven't dyed my hair since I streaked it green in high school. I won't ever change my colour again.
