New Hair Cut??? New Glasses!

Diane

Hi everyone, My hair is damaged from coloring over the years, so I am thinking of going short and letting the salt/pepper come out. Thoughts?

Also, I am getting new glasses next week and leaning towards a neutral brown pair of frames. I am finding that there is too much "clashing" of colors when I wear my colored frames. Are there any guidelines for frame color and makeup?

I think it depends on the salt and pepper and your colouring. Some people look great while others can look 'drained' x

Hi! And welcome! Having no idea what you look like, I say cut it off. New healthy hair is an absolutely amazing feeling. As far as letting it go salt and pepper, I say try it. If you decide you don't like it, you can always color it again later.

From someone who has tried doing this same thing. I have to say I regretted it. Salt and pepper hair makes me look tired and short hair just makes me want my hair back. I know nothing about you and whether you have worn and enjoyed short hair, but that's just my 2 cents.

I say get a nice trim and freshen your color with something less damaging. If you have salt and pepper hair, then I'm guessing you had naturally dark hair. The lighter you take the color, the more damaging. Try a nice nourishing, medium brown color and maybe some highlights and a deep conditioning. Still don't like it? Then, consider cutting it.
