Go Team Red! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off/page/2#post-432174 Wed, 28 Sep 2011 16:21:30 +0000 san 432174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tara you look gorgeous! I love your hair. I like the color as is but I also feel you can play with the color for a change and to have a little fun. You are very lucky to have the cramy skin which let's you get away with experimenting with color. I do like it as is but it does seem safe if you know what I mean. One of your questions was if it is too red, I don't see any red in it and I think it would look great with some added. I love the blue mohawk or platinum Shirley Temple do suggestion! Ha!</p> <p>My goodness your anniversary outfit is beautiful and fits so nicely. You and Sarah have great taste in choosing that top.</p> <p>Happy anniversary to you and hubby. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off/page/2#post-431215 Tue, 27 Sep 2011 11:45:57 +0000 sarah 431215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tara - I found some old photos of outfits with that top - here you go! I was happy with the first one - I think I might lose the belt in the second one. I also tucked it into a pencil skirt with the jacket in 2. I think maybe you're right - I think it does look nice with softer colored jackets that pick up the lovely colors in the top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-431140 Tue, 27 Sep 2011 05:37:43 +0000 Scarlet 431140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Um, I think you look gorgeous? I see room to play with your color. (I liked Jean's comment,) I think your complexion could even pull off a little darker if you want, but this color looks good now. And that jacket is amazing! (not that you asked). I can see tortoise-shell glasses looking good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-431122 Tue, 27 Sep 2011 04:41:03 +0000 Kate 431122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your hair color just as it is, Tarzy. It's beautiful.</p> <p>Never would I have guessed you and I are almost the same age; you look like you're in your 30s! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430968 Tue, 27 Sep 2011 01:39:39 +0000 yublocka 430968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tara your curls are perfect!! What a great style. I like the current colour but also like the idea of making it a bit redder since you wear alot of black. Speaking of which, thats a great jacket you are wearing!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430946 Tue, 27 Sep 2011 01:29:08 +0000 bj1111 430946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>tara,</p> <p>happy anniversary! wishing you many many more.</p> <p>i had the same reaction you had...i love your hair color, it really highlights your milky skin and the tortoise sets off your eyes. but i think the jacket so close to your face is severe as you put it (exactly the word that popped into my head). perhaps that's making you think your hair color is off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430929 Tue, 27 Sep 2011 01:07:10 +0000 Carole 430929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i LOVE your hair color. It looks very natural looking and has such a pretty sheen. You could always add some highlights or low lights if you feel you need a change. We are the same age, Tara. You look very young and have beautiful skin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430922 Tue, 27 Sep 2011 01:00:57 +0000 Jonesy 430922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On the contrary, your hair is 100% *ON*! You look so gorgeous in these pics, Tara! Agreeing with the others that you look almost freakishly youthful :). I really appreciate Jean's perspective about hair color and growing older. Your hair looks lovely like this, but I could see you going in a different color direction too. You could pull off pretty much anything, I would think. Blue mohawk, platinum Shirley Temple 'do, you name it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430567 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 16:45:58 +0000 lynne 430567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your hair looks amazing! That is exactly what I want my hair to do curlwise. May I show your picture to my stylist next week? I blow dry my hair straight sometimes and other times let it curl, but I'm not completely happy with how it looks curly. Your color looks good, and that's coming from someone who has been dyeing her hair red for 35 years. (and passing for a natural redhead). Yes, keeping it up is a PIB, but I'll be red until I'm dead. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430560 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 16:35:47 +0000 tarzy 430560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, thank you all so much! I swear - I'm not fishing for compliments.</p> <p>It's interesting. Some people think my hair should go warmer, some think a bit cooler. </p> <p>I'm intrigued by the idea of adding some lowlights. I'll have to do some research on that!</p> <p>Sarah - isn't that a gorgeous top? I love the colors! What do you wear yours with? Looking at the picture, I wonder if that black jacket is too severe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430521 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 15:44:21 +0000 MsMary 430521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab, fab, fab!! Your hair and everything else is just lovely! And may I say that you are looking verra verra slim and trim these days, too!? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430519 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 15:36:13 +0000 sarah 430519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look gorgeous, top twin (I have that same AT shell)! Your skin and hair are both lovely. I think some warmer brown tortoise specs could look fab. Happy Anniversary! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430506 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 14:51:47 +0000 morethanbeige 430506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Tara, you look amazing! So pretty! I don't feel qualified to comment on your hair color, all I can say is you look fantastic! And that outfit is so great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430498 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 14:32:28 +0000 Angie 430498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look KILLER</p> <p>I just saw your hair colour irl and there is nothing off about it! </p> <p>Tortoise shell specs are also a great idea </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430463 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 13:28:27 +0000 greenglove 430463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tara,</p> <p>How about more burgundy red?. I would love too see you with much darker and funkier coloring. You can carry it, you are an artist!!Ii think this color is fine but not dramatic enough. I disagree that older women have to go lighter- there are many older women who stay darker as long as there style is somewhat bold and they do not go nuts with eyebrow pencil and pancake makeup. Look at Vera Wang. May be try a bit darker and cooler red highlights, anything warm will not work with your coloring. You have beautiful hair!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430446 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 13:09:41 +0000 rae 430446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm no colorist, but I think you look great with the current color! I do like how your current specs add a little bit of color to your outfit, too, but I know we all need to shake things up. Torties might be really nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430442 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 12:53:17 +0000 Deborah 430442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your hair is lovely, I am guessing the curls are natural? I think the color is lovely and soft on your skin, but I could see you with some low lights to add a little depth. I know I am echoing everyone here but 54, I would have guessed 35 - 40, you have lovely skin and such a beautiful smile. You are gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430437 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 12:38:57 +0000 RoseandJoan 430437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my Tarzy, you do have the most gorgeous eye colour (and your teeth are perfect.) Like the others I see nothing off with your hair colour, I do wonder if the bright white backdrop is throwing your perception of your hair colour off? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430407 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 09:14:24 +0000 vesperholly 430407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tarzy, you look amazing, and so pretty! I thought from your picture that you were in your 30s. And that jacket fits you like it was made for your body. I think you're on the right track with your hair -- I'd love to see it one shade darker, something more saturated. You seem to have a beautiful skin tone as well -- unless it's gotten much cooler over time, I don't think it will wash you out. Age says little about vitality. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430387 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 07:23:54 +0000 CocoLion 430387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I've never really seen a picture of you close up. You look beautiful. I like your hair the color it is. You look at least 10 years younger than your age, and I'm not just saying that to be nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430372 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 06:09:39 +0000 Aida 430372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(Tara your hair is lovely this color! Also, I asked hubby how old he thought you were and he said 35-40 Whatever you're doing it's TOTALLY working!)</p> <p>EDIT: Forgot to say happy anniversary and fab outfit! Your makeup is very pretty and soft. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430347 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 03:56:26 +0000 MNsara 430347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tara - between your gorgeous hair, your gorgeous smile, your gorgeous eyes, your beautiful skin, and those killer specs - I think you look totally wonderful!! No one would ever guess you're anywhere near 54 ;-)</p> <p>I LIKE the current color of your hair! Don't go any darker (this said from someone who highlights her hair all the time!), it's just too difficult to flatter our 50+ skin they say (and I believe).</p> <p>You could try some subtle foiled highlights in warmer tones (my favorite).</p> <p>Tortoiseshell frames could be fun - as long as you have another option for days when tortoiseshell is too 'brown'. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430338 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 03:22:14 +0000 Kyle 430338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>54? No way. I think I would like to see a bit more richness in your color. Not too dark, as you say, but I could see you going a little darker. I agree on the tortoiseshell frames, too. Boy, do you have gorgeous skin! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430328 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 02:59:58 +0000 bran888 430328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're gorgeous and you look so young! I don't think that the color looks off, but perhaps some lowlights would spruce it up a bit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430326 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 02:51:43 +0000 Sveta 430326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tara, I compared your avatar picture where your hair is much darker with this one and I like the present hair better, it looks softer and I like it.<br /> I agree with others: you look darn good and pretty young in these pictures! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430312 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 02:24:57 +0000 bella 430312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have a lot of suggestions for hair, but you don't look a day over 40! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430310 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 02:22:27 +0000 Anonymous 430310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know much about hair color, so I will defer to the experts. But happy anniversary!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430300 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 02:06:46 +0000 krishnidoux 430300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so good! You look 15 years younger than your age at least. And you have gorgeous hair. If you feel going a bit darker or giving it some depth, consider low-lights at a salon, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-my-hair-color-off#post-430299 Mon, 26 Sep 2011 02:06:45 +0000 Suz 430299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tara, you look fantastic! And you are so pretty! Agree with Kari that the blazer is gorgeous on you, a beautiful cut. </p> <p>The colour looks good to me in these pics, but I wonder if it might be smart to ask around in your area - ask people who have colour that looks great who their stylist is. (Or if you already really trust your own stylist, then just go with his or her advice?) </p> <p>I like the colour of your current specs, too, but I understand the need for a change. Besides black, what colours do you wear (or would you like to wear)? That might offer you some clues. </p> <p>By the way, happy anniversary! </p>
