Well, I've done it. I decided to make a huge change away from my dirty blonde look.
I'm now a chestnut, reddish brown.... aaack! It's still a shock when I catch a glimse of my dark, dark hair in the mirror.... heh. My hairstylist, Anne, told me in 6-8 weeks if I come in for a touch up... when the lighter hair starts growing out at the roots... she can add bunches more blonde highlights in and start phasing this dark out... I think that is the way I'll go.... so I'll be a lighter red, perhaps strawberry blonde for the Christmas cruise! =)
