I've been to 2 stylists now (within 3 months) with the same results. The first one I cannot really blame because I let her do what she thought would be good...which I think was copper highlights. But the second one, I specifically went to a pre-consultation to discuss what needed to be done to get away from the red/orange tones and go more blonde with cooler shades, both in the base and highlights
This time, she did more highlights and said she was using a cooler base color. Now to me, it looks warm, or am I just crazy? I have very pale skin with pinkish undertones and I really think what I need is a cooler/beige-ish pale blonde. That seems to look the best to my eye when I've tried various 'virtual makeover' tools.
Others suggest warmer tones, but I don't think that the warmer tones work for me...they wash me out and make me look ridiculous. Should I try to get it corrected or just live with it? If I tried to get it corrected now, would it be totally fried? It's in pretty good condition now. ugh....
