I have never dyed my hair....I have never wanted to before. But recently I thought I wanted it darker. I thought about it, but kinda dismissed it. I have heard that sometimes if you dye your hair you can never get it back to the original colour (although, can't you just get it dyed back to the original colour? I have never understood why that would be difficult, but then I do not really know the ins and outs of hair dye.)So for New Years Eve, I went to a party with a fancy dress theme - Hero's and Villain's. Me and my boyfriend decided to be topical(ish) and go as Russell Brand (hero!) and Georgina Baillie (villain). This involved me wearing a corset, fishnet tights and not all that much else...apart from of course, a very important dark wig. I kinda developed a taste for the dark side now, as I really loved the colour and now, since putting it up as my facebook profile picture, keep getting compliments on how it looks, So now I kinda want to keep it like that. Here it is....
Before the wig, I thought I just wanted to get it cut - maybe a bit shorter. I was inspired by the copy of Elle I was reading over Christmas, and this rather fantastic picture of Courtney Love and her rather Brigitte Bardot do...
I think Miss Love looks incredible in these pictures, I love the shape and texture of her hair in this photo. I am now in a massive dilemma about what to do.
It is also slightly worrying perhaps that my two hair inspirations now seem to be Courtney Love and a Satanic Slut, oh dear. Maybe I should just leave it how it is.

Your hair is beautiful but you also look AMAZING with dark hair.
I totally feel your dilemma, I have been thinking exactly the same!
My hair has always been long and boring so I decided to cut... only to wimp out last minute.
I think life is short and a new look is always exciting. But saying that you hair is a gorgeous shade, I've never really seen anyone else with that pretty colour. Maybe just cut?

I can't believe that THATS your natural color-- it's beautiful. I'd think long and hard before deciding to color it. But, why not start with a haircut? You could definitely get something with more layers, or thick bangs, or just shorten it so that it is not so heavy and you can tease it a la Ms. Bardot (who also happened to be a beautiful blonde!)
Ooo I love the dark hair! You could try a temporary dye first, to see if you like it - one that washes out in 2 weeks or something.

Dark hair would look amazing on you! It's less damaging to dye light hair dark than bleach out dark hair and re-dye it another colour. In any case, if you decide to go for it, deep conditioner will be your new best friend.
