Going red – I need your opinion!!

I’ve been thinking about going red headed again. It’s been a while, and I’m kind of bored with my hair. I haven’t changed the color since last December, but even then I had only dyed it black (my natural hair color is dark brown/black). Here’s me now, with my natural hair color, and similar hair cut/style/length (this photo is from May):

…and here’s me as a red head about two years ago:

I had highlights back then (crazy ones! Black, dark red, light red & blonde) & shorter hair, but I like the base color. I’m not sure if I want to go permanent just yet, so I’m thinking of using temporary color. What do you think??


P.S. Just an update, my mom is doing okay & should be home in a few days!! Thank you so much for the love, sweet tweets & messages. It means so much!!

    What about dying your hair with a demi-perminant auburn color? It’d be a nice way to ease into it plus it’d look brilliant in the sunlight.

    This is Amber, by the way– not a creepy anon.
    I’m just rather lazy and don’g feel like logging in!

    I think the red is pretty and warm. I think it’s good to try semi permanent, but I don’t know much about hair dye. I think the red would be pretty for fall though

    I love the red!! You can totally pull it off with panache. I am jealous, it’s a color that has never looked good on me. Those who can’t do it, encourage others!!

  12. Marissa says:

    Do it! The red looks great on you, and as long as you don’t go to orangey, I can’t imagine regretting it. Glad to hear your mom is doing well after the surgery. You look so much like her!

    I like the red color and the shorter cut, looks like bed head messy. So cute.

  14. Hannah says:

    I would never say no to someone wanting to dye their hair. Especially if that color is red. DO IT!

    Kirstin Marie, I know I’m late to the party, hateful Wifi that I have in Spain, but I think you’d look fantastic in red! I’m thinking of having red highlights put in my hair in a week so yeah, red would look great on you! And by the way, that photo of you with red hair looks smashing! :)

  17. Kara says:

    Woah!! Woooooooaahh, I LOVE the red. HOT! I always thought it would be cool to do my hair that color, but it would SO not look good on me. I love it that color- even short too!
