Ok...so I've decided that I've analyzed this to death...I had an appt scheduled tomorrow anyway, so I'm going to ask my stylist to make me a blonde. After asking on this board for celeb inspiration for my pale, cool/pink complexion and blue eyes, some recommended Reese Witherspoon, Jewel, etc. I'm posting the link to my photo album in Fotki...excuse my photoshop skills (I'm lol at some of the pics)...and ignore the styles...I'm just going for color. I'd love to hear what you think....here or leave comments on your faves at the Fotki album. Thanks so much...you all have been so helpful to me! Heres the link..you might have to cut and paste: http://public.fotki.com/momof2gr8kids/blonde-hair-color-o/ - http://public.fotki.com/momof2gr8kids/blonde-hair-color-o/ |

I did it...I went in with a pic of #30 and I think she did pretty good matching the color to the pic. My stylist said that my hair really pulls red, so she will add more green next time around, but she did a good job of neutralizing most of it. I took some pics and uploaded them to my Fotki album if you want to see...it's not a drastic change, but I can see lightening it up even more in the future. The photos are in my office and it's kind of overcast today, so between that and the flourescent lighting it's kind of hard to get a true color in the pics...let me know what you think. She went with a light ash brown for the base and then brought the existing highlights up (they are VERY blonde now) and added more highlights.

| Wow! I think it looks very BEAUTIFUL! When I looked at your sample pictures the other day, I didn't even realize there was a page two, so I didn't see those other ones. Good choice! |

I think you could go blonder with even thicker streaks next time

I really like the new color. It looks very natural to me.
