Awesome! Looks absolutely gorgeous, and just what I'm trying to achieve - if only I could find a colourist as great as that!

I had a second opinion from a colour technician just last night at a salon (which is part of a big commercial salon chain,) on my hair crisis, she insisted all she could do was cut all my hair off and then get me to the blonde I 'd like, or keep my length and make me darker (which completely defeats the object of paying £250 to have black stripped from my hair I feel). I'm at an utter loss - I could try travelling to London and seeing a good colourist down there, but there's still no guarantee they will do anything with it - and that's an expensive train ticket!

Guess I'll just have to try another salon, or go back and tear strips off  the stylist who put me where I am..bit sad, as my boyfriend is taking me to Prague in 3 weeks time for my birthday, and I dont really want to go, my self esteem is so low.

But you've given me a little hope anyway! Have Fun!

LUCRETIA, I was at this bookstore that sells magazines from the UK as well as the US magazines, and of course i checked out the hair section, and they had a few British hair magazines. It was a store similar to Borders, which i've seen in England. You should go there and browse through a few UK hair magazines and they usually have reviews some of the good salons in Britain, well I think mainly England.

I know this isn't the best advice but u never know!

Thanks Veronica, Just checked out the UK Hairdressers Magazine website, and there is a recommened salon I could try, strangely enough, just down the road from where I work! so I'm going to knock off early and pop in for a chat.

I'm expecting them to say the same kind of things as I've already heard, but I guess it's still worth a try. It's a case of whether or not I choose to take their advice, or go back to my old colourist, cross my fingers and hope for the best!

It shouldnt be a gamble - yet it sometimes turns out that way for me!

Thanks again!
