Hello lovely ones,

It has been a hecuva time here at the house of Rose. The ex who shared my house moved out in the middle of the night, leaving two heartbroken kid and one pissed and bewildered me.

Since then I have been scrambling to find reasonable airfare to Orange County to see my beloved Rollins Band perform at the end of the month.

No dice so far.

Poor Rae, I have had to change hair install dates, twice now. We all know that she is a wonderful person, but really her patience with me is phenomenal. I recommend her, heck, I already know she does good work!

Hehe.

So, I think I am having a midlife crisis and require some blonde and pink hair.

Each time I get my hair dyed, I am going darker red. My natural hair color is dark auburn.

I realized that I will NEVER have green or blue eyes so why am I trying to be a red red head? I guess its time for a change.

Here I am, now this looks like i just ate something bad but you can see the basics.

This is from a month or so ago. Maybe longer.



This is the last time I had extensions, WHEN I GOT TO DANCE NEXT TO PRINCE! Back in Feb.



(Sorry for the caps, it gets me revved up when I remember it)

Also, Thank Goddess I started working out a few months ago because I can see a difference between the two photos.

Important Info:

Hair currently down to clavicle, wavy, probably a #33.

Hair Desire: 20-22" JetSet Body Wave in #33 with maybe a #6 underneath and throughout and #613 (some of it will be dyed hot pink/fuschia)

Questions:
What do you think? How will it look? I think I want to venture into blondes more, white blondes.  Will white blondes work next to white white skin? For you MAC girls, I am NC15.

We will be attending Lollapalooza while in Chicago ( and getting my hairs done) so the more colorful, the better!



As always, Thanks for your hair wisdom :)

Rose! Nice to see one from the old days.

I've got about 20 rings here from various supplier and most all have one called "Ginger" but I don't think any hair suppliers stock it. It's this red/black/burgundy combo that is stunning. Would look fab on you.

I can't remember...have you tried Plastikhaar before or are you solely a user of HH?

Pardon the intrusion... I just wanted to say... Colored contacts girl!!! I have a WARDROBE of these little numbers in various shades of brown and hazel that I only wear for special occasions and vacations!!! These are LOTS of fun when you add some false eyelashes!!! I have gotten free drinks and extra special wait service whenever I don these little puppies!!! Plus I got a FREE video and pic from the manager of the Carnival Cruise photo studio on my cruise two years ago because as the guy told me "he would remember me because he loved my eyes"..  Okay well that wasn't the only reason.. They lost one of my cruise portraits, and sold me the wrong video that didn't include my performance in the passenger talent show.. I was supposed to pay for them (and offered to do so) but the guy sent them and never asked for any money.. So you tell me.. customer service or was it the eyes??? (Carnival Cruises ROCKS!!!)
 
Blue or Green colored contacts + red hair = Diva fabulous you!!!!

ooh, my red-headed friend has turquoise contacts, they are opaque and completely change her dark brown eyes......i call her cat-lady when she wears them, its such a striking look :)......but RoseRose, i LOVE your glasses.....i had to get glasses earlier this year and i've become about as much of a new glasses-piggy as i am a hair-piggy

anyway, ive been every possible (and impossibe) shade of blonde there is over the past 22 years (no im not old as dirt, i squirted sun in all over my hair when i was 14, turned my hair white, and my momma nearly killed me too).......my skin was very pale when i was younger, and looking back in pictures the pale blonde, ashy blonde,white blonde really looked good with pale skin

im all overly fake-tanned now, so im more golden-blonde now :)

Hello! Thanks for all the great replies!!

I tried contacts, I could not get them in.

Amm -- I did a PH install last Summer (I think) and I was unable to keep it dry. It got crunchy and weird and I took it out. I loved the colors and length though.

I am going to order from JetSet today. 33 and 6.
