Gentlemen Marry Brunettes!

I love the contrast of dark hair with all the rich colors of Autumn and Winter, so I've taken the plunge, and decided to go dark! The color I chose was Palty's foam hair dye in Cinnamon Churros.

What you get :D

I have a LOT of hair, so I need three boxes to get the job done. I was so impatient, that I forgot to take pictures of the process...next time promise!

Cinnamon Churros is a medium ash brown with golden accents. I dyed my hair on Sunday, and the photo above is after one wash. So let's see how light it gets after a couple of shampoos. I really love the color! It's been compliments galore with Aki (added bonus), and now he wants to dye his hair the same color...wonder twin powers activate! <-- If you don't know this reference, please look it up :P

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this post, and I'd like to know what hair color are you rocking at the moment :)

Looking gorgeous one lipstick at a time.

I love deep burgundy hair!!! I usually go deep burgundy in winter. What dye did you use?

I'm pretty sure it was Loreal. I usually use Garnier, because it leaves your hair really soft and it smells so good. Usually hair dye stinks.

Is it wrong for me to say that I like the smell of hair dye???

Having white hair is great when you want to transition to blue or green.

But you don't need to go that light if you want to go pink, purple, etc :)

Don't forget to invest in a good deep conditioning treatment!!

Hahaha, actually, I had green hair once :)

I've had every color imaginable, and more :P

I do miss the old color, but I'm loving this color for Fall. Getting older...yes. Wiser...NEVER!! :P

What dyes have you tired?

Aki's hair is a reddish brown. He's already hovering over my extra boxes :( I need to hide them like a squirrel hides her nuts.

Looking at your healthy, full locks it doesn't appear that all the coloring you've done upsets your hair at all!?!
Since I had my last perm almost 30 years ago I can safely assume that the products have improved considerably since then. However,as I have absolutely NO desire to look like a gollywog again I won't ever be putting the new & improved perms to the test:)
As to toning/dying, I have no idea what was used so when the time comes where I can't ignore the grey hairs for another second, I will have to do some serious research & I'll be knocking at your door for sure:)
Aki's hair color sounds great - no dying neccessary!!!

I deep condition the hell out of my hair!!

Hahaha, Golliwog, too funny! I'd love to see a photo :DDD

definitely give me a ring when the time comes. I think I've tired almost every dye in the market!!
