So, as most of you already know, I had chosen to go blonde gradually from my natural dark brown to medium brown hair. I have been getting more and brighter highlights at each root touch up session over the last several months. This weekend, I had an appt and my stylist decided to bring up my roots by using a high lift. Then, she did all-over highlights and lowlights. I believe the highlights are neutral and lows are ash (level 8 if I remember right).

My hair is a LOT lighter! Although I am still getting used to it and working on my makeup, I love it. I walked out of the salon feeling great. I have the owner of the salon do my cut, and he is great at making a big deal about the 'reveal', and everyone in the salon was watching anyway...the girl next to me said she wanted my hair. I left feeling like a million bucks (less the couple hundred it cost to get it done! lol!)

My husband hates it. When I came home from my appointment, he said "What did you do? Did you get it lightened again?! It's too light...it makes you look all red...you are ruining your hair...it looks dry! It's not even blonde, I don't know what you call that color, but you look like an old lady who is trying to make herself a blonde, and it looks awful with your skin tone." I felt like crap, and now of course started second-guessing my decision. I'm glad to be back to work so I can get some other opinions on it....be honest...what do you think?

LOVE IT!!!! I wish I looked that hot in blonde hair. You are beautiful, your hair looks amazing, shiny and healthy, tell your man he has no idea what he is talking about and he should be proud to have you (no offense). Work it girl!!!

I like it! I think it's complimentary with your skin tone! Not too blonde, just right! I also like the cut on you!!

The colour is beautiful and natural looking but I find it makes you look a bit washed out.

with your pale pinktoned skin you could go platinum & it wouldn't be too light. Men -they don't know anything. Maybe it's more the cut then the colour? post a pic of you before please!

the blond hair softens your look and brings out your eye colour...the brown is so 'blah'...( no offense please !) And bleached hair has usually more volume because the little fibers are 'rought' up...and that seems to be another plus ...( i'm naturally blond but dye my hair red+ black, so i'm not exactly pro-blond - but you look really better as a blonde!)
