Need opinions on hair color!! Help!

Hey ladies!! I need your help. I have been a blonde for over 10 years now and am toying with the idea of going darker. I am naturally pretty pale and have decided NO MORE TANNING BED!!! Anyways, I need your opinions. I LOVE being a blonde, so I am really thinking I won't change, but I would love to hear what you ladies think!! The pic is kinda cheesy, but it gives you a good look at my hair. Thanks so much!!!

Have you considered going gradually with lowlights? That way it wouldn't be a drastic change. You could do it over several trips to the salon.

I have and actually last time I went, we did that, but I am not very happy with it. I think I am just addicted to bleach!! I either need to go completely dark or just stay blonde. I don't like myself in between.

Perhaps just going back to your natural color would be an idea, though if you love being a blonde do you really want to change? I'm naturally blonde and I don't like it so I'm trying to find a good looking red

I hope you don't mind me saying, but I can see the roots are darker. I tried picturing you with it all darker and I think it would look great! Is your natural color really dark or just a light brown? I think it would look great natural! You can always try it and if YOU don't like it, go back to blonde....

I am very fair also, I don't like being blond because I feel it washes me out... Soooo if I were you I would think about a light brownish red...A warmish color that will give you a little contrast. If you want a change this might be a nice one!!!

Here's me so you see what I mean..(Don't look at the hair cut!) Mine might be darker then you would like...but you can get the idea

I had a tan in the pic where my hair is long... I guess I don't look too fair, but in real life I really am. I wear make up so I don't look like the walking dead!!!

With you're coloring, I don't think you would look natural with really dark hair. You might consider a light honey brown. That would look nice, and would warm up your look.

A honey brown look is a great choice. It really would warm up your features!!
