Do you change your hair color often?I have had my hair blonde, brown, black, auburn, red, blue, and green. I think that's all. What colors have you dyed your hair? Do you dye your hair now?I am in the process of dying my hair dark red with some blonde right now... hopefully it turns out okay since I am doing it myself and I haven't tried two colors before!

I colored my hair for the first time ever last June. I didn't actually completely color it even then. I had it highlighted with 3 different shades. I liked it a lot and have kept it up since then.

My original hair color is black, brown and grey. Heavy on gray. I was born with a grey steak in my hair. I am too young to have gray so I started coloring my hair when I was twenty two. I love red. I also like to change up. There is a large selection of red. The place I used to work at would take a poll to see what color my hair would be for the next few months. I went from bright orange to a deep deep red that looked almost purple in the sun. I liked to keep everyone guessing. I use a very mild color by Nuitrice. They us fruit oils not any harsh chemical.

I have used that one too. There is also number 42 which is black cherry and it is dark but looks purple not balck. I also use number 76 hot tamale. This one a rich auburn blonde. On me it is a lighter red. There are a lot of reds by this company and with it not being harsh I can change colors ever frew months.

I just recently used Nutrisse... a color called "pomegranate" which is sort of purpley red and the dye smelled sooooo good because of the fruit oils :)

I love dying my hair. Especially now that I am starting to get gray hairs at 27...GGRRRR...actually I started getting them at like 25. *sigh* But I always loved dying it even before then. I used to dye it a red color before. Then I did a light brown with blondish highlights (which I LOVED)...and now I am closer back to my normal color, though its a bit too dark.

I have only ever put purple streaks in my blonde hair before...Everyone said it looked cool, so I just went along with it, but thats all, other than I have never touched it.

I have done my hair different shades of brown, auburn (too much red...I thought it would glow in the dark!), and different shades of blonde. Right now my hair is a light sun blonde. I have to bleach it now instead of dying it the darker colors, because when I dye it my hair falls out in clumps. Go figure. LOL

Yikes! When I dye mine a lot comes out in the shower while I'm rinsing, not in clumps though! You hair sounds really pretty. I wish I could be a blonde, but it has never looked good on me.

It's hard to stick with one color when there are so many options out there!!

I have natural blonde hair and i didn't like my hair colour in my childhood but its ok for me now. I like black hair veryyyyy much but never dyed my colour yet. My natural hair colour is ok for me and is the most suitable colour for me for my face colour. I don't want to dye my hair. Well, you are looking good with twice of shades.

hair dye - hair dye for women
I have tried dark brown. I wish to try other colors like red but sometimes I'm just scared of how I might look like. My original hair color is black.

I usually dye my hair to cover the grays. Usually a dark brown or black. I have not tried any other color besides those two. I am not game enough to even try. You do suit red hair you know!

I don't normally get to brave with dying my hair. My natural color is light brown (which is what it is right now). I haven't dyed my hair in over 3 years. The last time I dyed my hair I just got blonde highlights and it looked really good. I have dyed it dark blonde, strawberry blonde and that's about it. Like I said I don't get to brave lol.

Blimey taht's a lot of colours? I have dyed mne recently with blonde highlights, but that is as brave as I will go. I did once have a bad hairdo which I cringe over when I look back, I had a blonde streak through my hair, and it looked like a skunk, but they all had them when I was at school. Oh no actually I had two, I shaved all the back of my hair off in rebellion, as my hair is so curly it took a while before it looked normal again.

I like to change my hair color often. It's fun and easy to do. I've done it numerous shades of red, blonde (just once, by accident), and recently black. Black does wash out or at least it does for me. I want to do something fun with the color after it washes out again.

I used to keep my hair auburn or red, but I have so much gray now, and it does not hold color well, that I decided I would try going natural again. Funny, lots of people thought I had had the streaks put in on purpose. I have never done anything wilder than the auburn shades. Of course, the first time I did it my biggest gray streak actually turned fuschia!LOL As a teen I would go for a very dark brown, almost, but not quite black. Not a goth look, long before the goth look was around, cause I am OLD! I wanted to be Scarlett O'Hara with green eyes, black hair and a 20 inch waist. I have better things to do with my time now.

I remember reading that you are 21 right? Cool- I color my hair- but only blonde or a bit lighter brown- my hair is already dirty blonde- I have always wanted real dark hair- but my complexion is light- I have never colored it red-blue-green or anything out of the norm. I have seen a lot of people do this- I work in an office- I don’t think they would appreciate me coming in with purple hair- LOL

I am 21, yes. I think that people with light complexions can look really striking with dark hair!

I think the only way to go from pitch black hair to a lighter color sometimes is bleach and that can be a regrettable decision! I have done it many times and just cut my hair off in the end. Thanks, I think my hair turned out okay.

I have periods where I change my haircolor often, and then go for months without doing anything at all to it. I've had black, blonde, auburn, violet-redish and tangerine orange. I'd love to color it cotton candy pink, white or ice blue sometime!

All three of those colors (pink, white, blue) sound cool. I wouldn't mind having some pink in my hair one day. It's my favorite color!

I agree that the color doesn't matter as much as how it looks with your face, etc. I never know how the color's going to look until I try it though!
