I’m seriously considering going red. In fact I was discussing it with my hair stylist/colorist just this morning. There are a few reasons for this hair color choice.
#1 All of my girls have the most amazing auburn hair and I’m really jealous. I want me some of that.
#2 I have a bit of red in my hair naturally and think I could pull it off
#3 In my mind I will go from this:

So what do you think? Go red or no? Maybe a copper color? Auburn? Just a hint of red in the brown? Do tell! And have you ever gone red?

Do it!
I officially went red right after my 18th birthday. I’ve now been a redhead longer than anything else, and I won’t ever go back!
And you do look a bit like Christina H in the face. The rack might cost a few buck though.
Happy Friday, and cheers! ~clink~

I think you could pull it off. If it doesn’t work out you can always go a bit darker auburn.
i personally love a dark reddy auburn color. think victoria principal…

Kerry Ann, I had the rack! I had a breast reduction a couple years ago. Ha!
Thanks for all the feedback, ladies! I think I’m going to go for it. Exciting!
It would look fabulous. I would love to, but I use hair extensions and I already dyed my hair and my extensions auburn, so I’m trying to stay the same hue so I don’t have to buy new extensions. Sad? Yes. Lame? Yes. That’s how I roll.

Susie, it’s a little scary! Such a big commitment going red. We’ll see if I actually have the guts to do it
Honesty when I watch mad men I totally think you look like her! I vote geminas color, maybe kicked up just a bit! Go for it!
Thanks, Dawn! I think I’m going to bring Jemima into the salon and ask for her color
I’m concerned the maintenance is going to be out of my budget. We shall see.
Jenny, that may be the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me! I love Joan. I think I’m bringing Jemima into the salon with me and asking for a color match
I agree – you do look like her!
Funny because we both have been fighting red in our hair for years always trying to get just brown and no red. But I am thinking this is a good idea to embrace that your hair already is a bit red but go more dramatic with it.
Go a tiny bit more warm red though??
As far as maintenance, I have to get my roots colored so regularly from gray that it seems like maintaining a new color is not that big of a deal anymore. Do you have to color regularly too? If so isn’t that the same then to cover gray and keep the red up? You get what I am saying. Very early here and one sip of coffee so far.
Sigh.
Point is GO RED
