My natural hair color is around the brown/dark blonde range. I've been coloring it blonde for a quite a while now. I've been contemplating dying my hair a rich brown color similar to this: Here is a picture of me with my blonde hair: http://www.geocities.com/portrgirl/sweetness.html Otherwise I was considering a medium to dark hunny? blonde (like Kate Hudson on Cosmo's March 03 cover, sorry can't find a picture of it). What do you all think??

Hey, I love Bruiser!!

You are very beautiful.

Don't try this yourself. Go to a pro to do this. If you try it with home color, you are running the risk of turning the ends a funky color. I don't know the condition of your hair, but it plays a very important role on how it will turn out.

Be very afraid to do this yourself.

I think Bruiser is awesome too. Legally Blonde 2 comes out soon too!! And thank you for the compliment.

I'm pretty sure that I'd go to a salon to get it done if I do it. My hair is pretty healthy but I don't want to risk anything. However, I need to decide IF i want to go that dark...

I think it would look great! I would do it with some highlights that are a light brown, not blonde. That would be very pretty.

I cannot wait till Legally blonde 2 comes out!!

While I normally like blonde the best, in your case I think a darker color would be better. Would go with you skin tone better. I would go a little darker but have some honey blonde highlights. This will give your hair some more depth and actually make it seem fuller. Oh, by the way, you are very cute.

You're a pretty girl. I think you'd look gorgeous in a medium, golden brown.

I wouldn't go too dark, because if you get bored, you'll be stuck with it, or have to bleach it. That is what I am going through now.

And I agree with Lilibeach, please go to a reputable colorist. You have too much to lose, messing around at home.

Please let us know how that goes.
