Say goodbye to medium brown with a sligh redish tint hair...I set out last night to dye my hair dark brown - a shade closer to my eyebrows (and natural hair color). I left it in 5 minutes too long (oops) and used the entire bottle on my now-shorter hair (double oops). The result? Nearly black hair, just like my mother (who is so cheap she buys hair dye meant for African American women when it goes on clearance. She's hilarious.)
Um. At least it matches my eyebrows?And, I'm off for a stupid conference enjoying some time with wonderful college students. At least I get to drive a rented minivan. Have I mentioned how much I adore driving minivans? I'm seriously my mother.
Oh but it looks so good on you! Going darker is a shock at first, but I think it looks great!
ReplyDeleteThat's so hilarious about your mom. :)
Looks lovely! Have fun in the minivan :)
ReplyDeleteLove love love love the darker hair!
ReplyDeleteI really really like it. Lovely for the winter. How very Snow White of you! :-)
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous color and you wear it well! I agree that it's great for the winter! :)
ReplyDeleteoh little miss. it looks LOVELY!!
ReplyDeleteit's definitely darker, but you pull it off so well. your complexion is perfect!
enjoy the mini van ;)
I have NEVER dyed my hair myself, and it's been colored since I was like 17..lol! I just love all the weaving to much...and apparently the pricey cost :( But yours really does look good!
ReplyDeleteThe dark hair looks greats. Don't worry. It will a fade a little and you will get much more used to it! I did the same thing last year this time.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your hair...I don't like mini-vans! HAHA! Your hair has had quite the week, eh?!? I think it looks great! =)
ReplyDeleteWork that dark hair, girlie! I think it looks great with your pretty skin! And yes, dark hair is really nice for the winter! I wish I could go darker for the winter but after dying my hair so often in HS/beg college, I'm going to stick with the blond for a bit.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a good time at the conference!
I like it!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it scary when you look in the mirror and see your mother? Luckily for me, my mom looked younger than her age well into her forties... I'm hoping the same will happen for me.
The hair looks great.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I have to meet your mom. She sounds like a HOOT.
Well then your mum's pretty :)
ReplyDeleteIIRC your mom's a lovely, young looking thing-it doesn't seem like a bad thing to look like her! I think the color's pretty.
ReplyDeleteDarker hair makes my skin look clearer/brighter, and I've been contemplating going that way, too.
Oh I love this!! I was so excited when you twittered about it - totally lives up to expectations = )
ReplyDeleteHave fun rockin' the minivan! My husband loves them too. I married your mother. Sorry about that ; )
AHHHH you DO look like your mum!! But that's not a bad thing. Your mum is spry and cute. Therefore, you also rock this look.
ReplyDeleteFound you through Emily Pie - love your blog. Will be back.
ReplyDeleteAlso? Love the haircut.
Wow, you look gorgeous! (As always. Sheesh.) :) What a fun change!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love how you're excited for the minivan. I'd have a stroke if I had to be the driver. I'm used to my little nugget of a car.
Ooh I really like it! Very bold.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! I like darker hair for the winter. And the darker hair totally works on you!
ReplyDeleteyou are too cute.
ReplyDeletethe dark hair looks great on you. I'm always jealous of girls like you that can change hair colors and look great in any color.
Gorgeous dahling, gorgeous!
