My hair is way, way, way too dark for my liking. Unless I'm in direct sunlight, it looks like the goth black I was dying it 20 years ago. I don't want this severe a look. Nice, sedate, medium browns are the colors I see on the boxes of coloring I purchase and use. But apparently my hair has become too porous, and the result is just-this-side-of-black. Do not want.
I guess that once I get back from the holidays, I'll just have to suck it up and have a stylist get it back to a color I like. This is not something that's in my routine beauty ablutions budget, so it will have to be on the understanding that I'll be doing the root touch-ups myself at home, and thus the color choice has to facilitate that. Sometimes I miss my blond phase, but it really wasn't compatible with my skin tone (it made me look sunburn red all the time). A simple, pretty brown is what I'm after.
/it's all about me
