It suits your shoulder OK, but goodness knows how it would suit your face!

I'm a big believer in NOT dying hair a color not found naturally. So no. But I'm weird like that.

I colour my hair a very similar shade, and have used some variation of it for several years. I like it. I'm very pale and I think I look better with dark hair that is a warm shade -- better than with blonde/light coloured hair. I think it warms up my face. I tend to look even sicker and more washed out with light coloured hair.

Yea i just want something different. I think it's fading quick underneath. Was going to just add streaks but want the "dirty blond" gone and am thinking may just go for it. If its to much I'll wash it with dawn a lot then do a light brown over it which may result in a cool look. Lol

I'd do it! But just remember, reds fade really fast. Use a sulfate free shampoo.

I think it would be lovely on you. I'd never color my hair (never say never, right?) but I love it and fascinated by it when others do it. I can live vicariously through you.

I had a friend years ago who had naturally dark blonde hair, so she brightened it up by dying it a rich golden blonde. I always thought it was really pretty and I got used to her as a blonde. Several years after I had known her she decided she wanted to have red hair instead and so she changed the color. I hated it and I thought it looked bad, but she didn't ask my opinion so I never told her how much I didn't like it. I thought it made her look older (She was in her early 40s at that time). It just didn't look natural because it was almost a faded brick red color. I recently saw her from a distance a few weeks back and noticed that she is still doing her hair that burgundy red color and I still think it looks silly on her. I guess I'm not a fan of blondes coloring their hair a drastically different color.

I've had all shades from blond to a medium - darkish brown and so far been ok. I do have natural red tones in my hair if I don't use an ash color

It's only hair and the color will fade so if you want to try it, go for it! I am not personally a fan of the all over burgundy. I guess I haven't seen anyone I like it on. I think the burgundy under hair looks cute though! I still say do whatever makes you happy.

The L'Oreal one is called EverPure. I like it for the price. Keeps my auburn dyed hair looking good for several weeks.

If the top section will take the color the same way as the bottom, I like it. I have blonde hair and once tried to dye it red. It turned a lovely shade of creamsicle. So if you are sure you won't get that -- go for it!
