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 naturally dark brown. Now I'm dark brownand gray mixed together. I dye my hair burgundy. I love it. I don't think I'd look good as a blond.

I dyed my hair super blond while going through my 1st divorce because he had told me he thought women with 'roots' looked cheap. I also cut it off to chin length.

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!

My hair has been every color under the sun. My favorite being red.
I was blonde for a minute. It didn't suit me. Red always did.

I've gone natural, and it's 100% white now. It's staying that way.

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 had more hits when i frosted my locks

I try to get darker color but stylists always put in more blond than I want. Oh well. I go with the flow. If it looks nice and healthy i am okay with it

My hair is blonde my head hair has gotten dark as I get older my body hair remains light blonde. A few years ago I put peroxide on my hair just to see if anyone would notice. I would not do it as a practice.

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.

I colored mine blonde once because I needed to do that before I colored it blue.

Now that it's mostly gray I'm going to try some color hair wax and the hair chalk.

I am a brunette and can't do blonde. I color my hair a lot!

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 tried once and it was terrible.

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.
