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:// - http://www.geocities.com/portrgirl/sweetness.html - 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 am a professional Hairstylist/Haircolorist with 19 years experience. I have traveled all over the country for my advanced education.

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!! ------------- I am a professional Hairstylist/Haircolorist with 19 years experience. I have traveled all over the country for my advanced education.

| 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.
