Vanity for distraction

Jul 13, 2007 12:25

I'm trying to work out if I should dye my hair red again... (I do make a great redhead - it's the freckles)

Any opinions?

Yes

Short, sweet and to the point. I can respect that.

I second the Eagles' yes wholeheartedly!

Now I've just got to work out if I do the professional hairdresser thing, which is usually red highlights over brown, or do the 'whole head' thing which is more solid colour, less highlights.

Hrm, if it was me I'd do the hairdresser thing as the one time I tried to dye my hair red did not end well. I guess it depends on what colour red and how happy you are doing it yourself. Cost is also a factor as hairdressers are fracking expensive.

I've been debating whether to go darker this winter myself, either a red or a mahogany, which I sis in the US once and it looked really quite good. We'll see.

All of my red colours so far have been done at home. I've never actually done a hairdressing version of total red, although I wouldn't do a home version of the blonde highlights that I currently have.

The thing with hairdressers is that they always seem to try to talk me out of just going red, and to do subtle blonde and red highlights instead. While it may actually suit me better, it seems a bit too subtle.

I'd be curious to see how you'd look as mahogany. I think that it would look fabulous, although you're natural colour is also great.

*surreptitiously removes the hint of drool from corner of mouth*

Sure, why not?

starplee July 13 2007, 05:56:54 UTC

Droolworthy huh? Ok, it's decided...

You are always droolworthy, Sandra!
Go with your instincts, they've always been right in the past.

Redhead you huh (Needs a moment alone) why not. ;)

starplee July 13 2007, 05:55:13 UTC

I'll take that as a compliment - but I've got no idea who you are...

halloranelder July 13 2007, 09:17:42 UTC

You're a beautiful woman no matter what hair colour, but I think you should do the red hair as well.

starplee July 15 2007, 23:27:53 UTC

thank you, and that was the perfect thing to read first thing on a monday morning (since I always read my LJ first thing when I get to work).

halloranelder July 16 2007, 23:08:45 UTC

And if it's coming from me, you know there aren't any ulterior motives. :) Glad to have been of assistance.
