Women (unless you guys have real input), have you ever colored your hair blond? Do you still? What are your reasons?
I was blond until high school, then dishwater brown, then as a statement I would color all shades of red because I wanted that more wild look, black and even did a bit of purple. Now I am going naturally gray.
I heard this interesting interview today about coloring the hair blond as being more 'white'. Listen to the link below and comment as well.
Please stick to the subject, thanks.
I was a cosmetologist and dyed my hair every color! I kept blonde for a while and now I'm back to my natural color!
I’m naturally blonde, although not this blonde. I have no intention of ever seeing a gray on this head as long as I am physically or mentally able. I only do it because it’s a bit brighter than my natural color.
I'm naturally blonde, but dye my hair a few times a year a variety of colors
I was super blonde as a kid and now it's dark blonde. Still no grays yet. I've only ever dyed it once; a wash out color because I refuse to deal with roots. It was supposed to be reddish but came out purplish brown. Sometimes I think about doing a wash out chocolate brown. Or RED.
Have had all 3 major colors....the most fun was red but also the hardest to maintain...start off deep auburn, 2 weeks later, Carrotop. Now mostly white, but spiky so not to seem "old"
I'm just grateful I have hair. Lost it last year during chemo treatment. Before that, I used to keep it shoulder-length, it was thin and straight, and I kept it reddish-brown. It's grown back thicker and wirier, in its natural color of now salt-and-pepper, and I've decide I love it short and if I should ever color it again I'll probably go for something lighter.
I am a natural blonde. I have explored all shades of blonde. I am 60 and just starting to get some grays. I have colored previously, after I leaned how toxic the dyes are I gave that up. Now IF I want to enhance my color I use strong teas. Roobios Red tea makes a nice reddish rinse. Doesn't last long, but gentle on your hair, the more often you rinse the longer it stays. Mostly I just let my hair be as it is. My grandmother was prematurely gray at 25, I figure I'm good.
Only colored my hair once as a teen. I was naturally blonde, though the color has changed by itself and now is more light brown. Most in my family had beautiful brunette hair. Never understood the popularity of blonde.
