Not me, no way I have copper colored hair which matches my freckles. Why would I want to unmatch myself? .

Yep. I’ve done it at home with those do-it-yourself kits. Not very successful.

The couple of times I tried it at home I ended up with more of the dye on the floor and my hands than in my hair. I go to the salon to have it done now. I started dying it when I was about 22, just because I could really.

I had/have dark hair, so I’d have bright red streaks put through it. Now, I’m about to turn 40, and I’m starting to go grey, so I have it dyed back to it’s original dark colour, and then I have streaks put through it. The streak colour really depends on my mood when I get into the salon.

I have never tried blonde. I have a very fair complexion, so I think I’d just end up looking like a vampire. My hairdresser is usually able to talk me out of any bad hair colour decisions.

I sure do Our daughter went to beauty school when she got out of high school, & that's what got me started. It was getting some grays in it then. This was back in the mid-late 80's.

We decided it'd be a good idea to frost it. That was popular back then. So I went over to her school.

She wasn't sure what color to put on it, as I wanted it lighter than it naturally was. So she asked her instructor, Vonda, what to use. (Funny, I still remember her name.) So my daugther mixed it all up as she was told.

I went through the hell of sitting there with her pulling my hair through this cap with the holes. When it was done & processed, my hair came out in just the prettiest shade of GREEN! I about had a stroke!

Other customers were coming in the door looking at me. They quickly had to figure out just how to get me back into a more human hair color. The frosting deal didn't last beyond that one time.

It made me look 70 years old. Eventually I found a color that works for me. I buy shop color & add RGC to it to tone down the red.

My dad was red headed & I certainly don't want that brassy look. I've been a golden blond for years & years. I do it myself & it always turns out perfect.

I'll keep coloring it forever. God only knows what color it really is now. I have no intentions of finding out!

I have... ...dyed my hair for the last 16 years. The first 10 or so years was off-the-shelf bottle jobs, but after a horrible experience (i.e.. green-gray locks), I decided to give myself over to the professionals. 8) Why?

Because I went gray at an early age and my family and peers kept telling me how "unattractive" it was for a young lady to have gray hair. Silly me, I believed them. However, as I get older, I may just go natural, for I think I'm getting cheaper and lazier and just don't want to deal with sitting in an uncomfortable chair for 2 hours with a wet head full of aluminum foil.8) .

Yes my hair is dyed, my husband does it......... I started dying my hair shortly after my last baby was born, around 6 years ago. I was afraid to do it for the first time, so my husband said he would do it. Six years later.......he is still doing it for me!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
