I'm thinking about coloring my hair again. Right now it's blonde, but I'm thinking about dying it dark again.

I'm looking for male and female opinions, on which one is better? Please see pics to evaluate.

Thank you so much in advance. Love you guys and gals-

♑️❤️

I think if you still have your blonde hair, you should go for lowlights.

You can also add more volume to your hair by messily parting it to the side or by curling it turning it into a messy bun

Thank you Liliani, for your opinion and tips, ?

That second pic is almost perfect.

You look younger with the blonde, but you need

dimension and as @lilliani said-- long layers.

(If I credited the wrong person, sorry-- will

correct).

With your coloring you can do whatever you

want... but if it were me, I'd keep the blonde

and do something striking with high/lowlights.

The color-- not the cut necessarily.

Though I think cut would look great (1st pic),

you have a lot of options.

The problem with red is that reds fade fast and given you've bleached the fuck out of her hair to go blonde means the red will fade faster and turn pink. A coworker of mine did this and not only was it red, but it was a brighter red than the burgundy it was supposed to be. The ends are now turning pink because of all the fading. I'm not sure what your natural color is, OP, but if your hair is naturally darker than blonde, you should let it grow out back to its natural form before attempting a red shade. The new growth would likely hold color better since the follicles haven't been beaten up from all the dying.

I agree with Lilliani- go in between. That dark washes out your features, and your thinner eyebrows sort of get lost in the mix. With the blonde, they stand out more. Going in between would enhance facial features better vs the two drastic changes.

Ooh, something else to consider along the lines of brown- I know someone who did a color that I would call "rose gold." It was a reddish brown, but had almost a rosy pink undertone to it. It was a really, really nice color and she was going from much lighter to a darker shade.

You could pull off some of the red coloring as well as lighter blonde/highlight look all in one.

This is the closest I could find that matched color wise. Hers had a little more brown vs red in it though, Search "rose brown hair color" or "rose gold hair color" and you'll see a few variations. All are really pretty.

It's balayage (method), and I believe the

highlights are burgundy and blonde on light

brown hair.

Glad you like!

She is non-teachable.

And what she has to do with anything?

Is she your drug dealer?

Thank you so much Monty- ??

I think I'm in love with that first pic. I think I should do something different with the style too.

I really appreciate your response and the pics too.

dark looks more classy. instead of just one brown tone you could opt for lighter brown highlights to soften up your face a bit.

also maybe look into "bronde"; it's the ideal tone of blonde and brown.

make sure your stylist considers your skin undertone; (cool or warm).

ps: not trying to be mean; but your eyebrows are very harsh which gives your face a hard expression .....unlike your obvious bubbly persona ?

Thank you Nem- That wasn't mean, and I appreciate your honesty and your opinion. Thank you, for your opinion and kind words. ?

Petals- As exciting as those colors sound, I don't think that would be a good choice for a woman my age or professionally. But, to have it temporarily (maybe a day or two), sounds fun. ??

I like the suggestions from @Lilianni the best, especially the top two pics. I was thinking something like that but she already posted it, so no need.

You're lucky though, you have that skin tone that makes you look good with any hair color. I would look hideous as a blonde lol. I can do brown with blonde or honey colored highlights and that's it 🙂

Thank you LivenLuv- Yeah, I like those pics a lot. All of them are beautiful, it really is going to be hard to decide.

Also, thank you for the compliment. That was sweet of you, 🙂

P.S. I bet you'd look great as a blonde.

I think brown looks better. If you want to go brown, mahoghany is a great color- brown with red highlights in it. Instead of getting highlights, my hairdresser puts toner on after the brown. In the sun, the red shimmers & I always get compliments on it.

Thank you Roo, 😉

Are the pics you?

Yes, they are of my crazy ass.. ?

Goregous

Go red!

🙂

Yeah! Try! If you are crazy - you must?

2 years ago I've bought stuff to get auburn.

Instead it turned hot cherry! Like so red - people would jump! Most loved it and very few didn't. That was crazy!!!

Thank you Geminati,

I'm a little crazy, ?

I think my decision will turn out to be a good one..
