I'm really blonde and I want to dye my hair brown tomorrow, any tips?

Question

I have super blonde hair that I dye myself every month.

Side view of my hair: http://i7.tinypic.com/2crod5f.jpg (I'm the blonde one obviously)

Me: http://i5.tinypic.com/2hp0jms.jpg

As you can see in the pictures, the top of my head is kinda a different color blonde from the rest of my hair. I think it's because when I dyed my roots, I left it in too long or something...

But I want to dye my hair brown...

This is me with brown hair: http://i8.tinypic.com/4hu0305.jpg

And another one: http://i9.tinypic.com/49a8dih.jpg (I'm on the right)

Honestly, what is your opinion...blonde or brunette???

And if I do dye my hair brown, what type of brown do you recommend?

I just need your help! I'm so nervous, because it's such a huge change.

By the way, I'm doing it myself...I have no extra money to get it done professionally.

THANKS!!!

Answer 1

okay. so i like totally cheated and looked at yr yahoo page...which actually showed yr myspace where you can see better pictures. and you totally look like 2 different people between when you are blonde and when you are brunette.

i can honestly say you look so much more sophisticated and mature and classy with the dark brown hair. and i would dye it that exact same shade again---like a chestnut brown. it looks soooo much better!!

GOOD LUCK!!

Answer 2

I actually like that hair color. You may want to go a ash blonde... BUT I advise you to go to a salon if your going to go an ash due to the side affect of your hair turning green. Brown I think would be a little too dark and the contrast wouldn't be that great against your skin tone. I would say a dark ash blonde, medium blonde, or light ash brown. I think those would look the best with your face shape and skin tone. When you decide on the color phone the toll free number on the hair box and ask questions on how to prevent side affects, etc, etc.

Answer 3

Your ends look like they would "grab" the color differently than the rest of the hair. You might not like the result you get if you dye it brown on your own. A stylist would most likely add some warm pigments back into your ends before dying it darker so they don't turn black or a "mucky" color.

Answer 4

do no longer DYE YOUR HAIR. be proud to be a brunette, why run with the gang all working to turning out to be blonde's? additionally.. in the experience that your rather prepared approximately turning out to be a blond, you may desire to rather evaluate having it performed at a salon, i'm conversing from adventure, my acquaintances come to college with their hair all screwed up from the shop bought shade. good success! ***and stay brunette, in the experience that your searching for a sparkling hairstyle, decrease your hair! instead of death it.

Answer 5

Blonde looks more natural and fits your face better. Maybe it's the picture, but brown seems like you're trying to hard. Blond gives the impression you don't have to.

Answer 6

I think you look better as a blonde. But if you go brown i would say maybe a light golden brown would look good..

Answer 7

In my opinion, I think you look a lot better as a blonde

Answer 8

if you have blonde hair that will naturally get bleached by the actual sun in the summer. There was this guy in my class who also had golden blonde hair that had been a medium brown near the bottom. When he came back to university after summer vacation, it was practically platinum blonde!

Answer 9

Jet black hair. I have really dark brown hair and I believe dark hair looks better. I may really like blonde hair.

Answer 10

I think you look great either way. But blondes have more fun! It's how you would feel about yourself, probably better that way!
