There are reasons why Eeyore may be glad that she and I live on opposite ends of Canada! When she was younger, I am pretty sure that she was frequently traumatized when we were out in public together. I love the colors in my hair; work is trained by now and they are no longer shocked.

RG you would look great in any color except maybe green! Shadoe your hair is fantastic. I've always secretly envied such a do, but my family gets strange if my color has a little too much red! Can you imagine their shock if I did your rainbow of colors? Delicious.

OMG, just noticed my mother (shadoe) posting here. LOL. The stories I could tell about my mother's "trendiness" with regards to hair. When I was 6, back in 1981, my mother was probably the only mother EVER to have PLATINUM BLOND hair, and looking back, I think she had a tame version of that Flock of Seagulls hairdo. I honestly don't think I am my mother's daughter. I will streak my hair with colors only about 1 shade off of my natural color. MAYBE a few shades lighter in the summer, but I go dark again in the winter. I have no tattoos, and my hair is nothing to write home about. LOL. Well, it's really soft, as I tend to condition a lot. That's about it. This is the wildest I've ever gone with my hair:
Ultra dark for winter. But I chickened out and went back for highlights 4 weeks later.

Eeyore is right about her being ultraconservative and my being sort of a daring loose cannon. Maybe that's the reason - I don't notice any attention I may attract in public, but Eeyore likely recalls some of the looks I have gotten over the years. I have been known to adapt to drab. When we moved back to Wpg from Van in 1984 or something, I called ahead and asked about local styles. My hair was white on top and deep red around the sides. I was advised to come back with only one color LOL. I tell you, that was one tough change. I moved back as a bleached blonde. Ever since, I decided to be just me and let the others adapt.

I have been dying my hair since I was 14 when I just HAD to have purple hair. Then it was midnight blue for a time...then black. Between the ages of 23-25 I left it alone and it was so healthy and beautiful...light brown-who knew! Lol. Then I found some grey hairs and I freaked. So i went to get highlights for the first time and hated my hair so light. So, I went back to black. Everyone has been complimenting me on it and I haven't lightened it yet. I suppose for winter it is ok Eeyore-you look great with dark hair...although I am sure you look great with the light hair as well! And Shadoe...well, I am sure my daughter is going to feel just as your did about my hair someday! Lol, but I love your hair (and your tats!)

Thanks Silly it's a great feeling to do what you like and when you like. I will continue with the hair colors until I get to about 40% grey. Then I will go natural - I think grey will look great with my natural color of reddish blonde (I think that's what it was the last time I saw it). Every time I get my hair done, I ask "How's the grey coming?" I already told them to watch for that 40% mark. If it looks too boring, I am going back to the colors.

Excellent. Lookout below... cuz I am going to post my before and after pix of my cut and colour. No face pix tho, today. Anyhow, its not about my ugly mug - its all about the hair.

3 Before pix: colour fading, roots showing, and grey popping out all over and a trim desperately needed.
  2 After pix: I went redder this time... and its shorter, but I'm leaning back in one pic so it looks longer than it is... its really barely touching my shoulders now.

Ok, I need help. I am looking for a new hairstyle and don't know where to turn. My hair is straight and fine and currently just below my shoulders. It has been more than a year since my last hair cut, and I am tired of always pulling it back in a pony tail. Could someone direct me to a site that has great hair styles without charging a registration fee? I was waiting for one of those ambush makeover shows to snatch me up off the street and give me a new look, but I think I may need to take action on my own. This is what we are working with:
Thanks!

I shorter cut with layers for fullness would be absolutely beautiful on you! You have a great shaped face! Consider highlights for different tones. Here are some I like.

I like the bangs, or partial bangs (or "fringe" as the brits would say) and highlights for sure.. you just feel all shiney and glowy with highlights. Mame, what a wonderful cut and color!! I'm just dying here for a haircut.. my hair really isn't THAT long but I'm just ready to jump in that chair and let Peggy do her thing, foils and cotton and chatter and then get my bangs out of my eyes (uh, it was really really windy today, I think that is part of my meltdown..)..

Here, my hair is like yours, very straight and each hair is very fine and I was shocked at how much more volume I had with shorter hair and with highlights, too. Look forward to seeing what you choose to do.
