I don't think I'm brave enough for burgandy but I'm sure I could go golden brown. I think I've had ash before (when an Australian stylist was toning down the Japanese hairdresser's efforts) and that didn't look as great.<br /> Thanks again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-124418 Mon, 08 Feb 2010 09:50:23 +0000 carolina 124418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think just adding some lowlights in ash or golden brown throughout your hair will help, I actually think burgundy or dramatically contrasting strands throughout would look really good with your complexion and eyes, but light ash brown is easier to maintain. </p> <p>You can DIY with one of those highlighting caps, just make sure to pull out small strands and keep the cap as close to your scalp as possible. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123536 Fri, 05 Feb 2010 05:46:27 +0000 anne 123536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone</p> <p>I am naturally a dark blonde, and was as blond as my little daughter at her age.</p> <p>I have gone platinum blonde in the past, not at my own hand but by hairdressers in Japan who were not used to dealing with caucasian hair.

It looks great to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123461 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 23:05:30 +0000 Angie 123461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks very natural actually.

Will be interesting to see how it looks when it starts to fade. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123453 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 22:29:06 +0000 Maya 123453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I was imagining a flat bleached blonde, which I never really like on anyone. This is fine. Very shiny and natural looking. A shade darker would probably look nice with your olive skin, but this looks pretty too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123436 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 21:57:27 +0000 RoseandJoan 123436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks good to me Anne, I would maybe try a shade darker when your (light) tan begins to fade. I'm impressed with your DIY efforts, are you a natural dark blond? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123366 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 18:19:16 +0000 cciele 123366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think it's too blonde; I like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123353 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 17:50:29 +0000 Kristine 123353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's pretty and not overly blonde. I do think a slightly darker shade would make the most of your skin tone and eyes though. The color now is similar to your skin, so it doesn't create much contrast. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123344 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 16:56:56 +0000 CK 123344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks very pretty and natural to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123341 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 16:49:45 +0000 marianna 123341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks very natural to me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123338 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 16:36:11 +0000 Anonymous 123338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It matches your baby girls hair so it looks like it runs in the family and is very natural. I can't imagine you with any other shade. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123294 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 14:28:50 +0000 bella 123294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it.

You look fantastic in that shade- it's very natural-looking. I think you just need to get used to it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123252 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 10:16:35 +0000 Louise 123252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks good to me i was imagining platnium barbie blonde !!!!!! x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123242 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 08:00:12 +0000 anne 123242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Kari - Whoops!</p> <p><a href="http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm234/anneinoz/midsummer%20shopping/100_7844.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i297.photobucket.com/al.....0_7844.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123239 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 06:10:22 +0000 Kari 123239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anne, I can't see your photo...</p> <p>You are courageous to lighten your hair yourself! I wasn't brave enough to do self-color when I was blonde - the one time I tried it with Sun-In, the results drove me right back in to a salon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-i-gone-to-blonde#post-123238 Thu, 04 Feb 2010 06:04:46 +0000 anne 123238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I dye my hair myself, in the interests of economy. Over time, my hair tends to get blonder and blonder in an effort to cover the roots. </p> <p>Have I gone too blond this time?</p> <p>PS please excuse running gear </p>
