Decisions, decisions... pennies or copper

So it's that time again, when I begin to research hair colors. I am having a little too much fun playing with different colors. Now, I still technically have a month before I'll be doing my hair, perhaps a little bit longer so I'm just "researching" and like usual, I feel like being bold. Let's see how that works hmm?

I have been all sorts of different versions of red, so I am keeping to that family because well, I'm naturally a red shade girl. My profile picture is my natural tone, if you can't see it, here it is below:


Those are the two best shots I have of my hair colors. You can see the hair has red and gold tones, depending on the light. In the winter it turns darker, but in summer that long hair shot really shows the lightness I get. Almost a strawberry blonde tone. I've never been told my true hair color, or been able to compare it to anything, so whatever you want guess is good with me. I've had some say "light brown" and others call it "red" and still others "strawberry blonde." We're talking hair people, people. 

The color that I recently put over my dark brown (L'oreal Superior Preference Natural Brown 4) 
L'oreal Superior Preference Natural Brown 4

was Intense Dark Red (RR04)  from L'oreal. Yes, I love staying with L'oreal's products. I just find them to be the best for my hair. The above shot is what I got with the Dark Brown. As you can tell, I still have warm tones in it, since I had previously done Dark Auburn. I think that one was L'oreal Preference Dark Auburn 4R. 

Now to decide what to use with the next choice. The above I colored over with Intense Dark Red and left me (as I figured it would since I didn't do anything different and I forgot how long I left it in so I probably washed it out too soon) with a Dark Soft Mahoganey color like my first Raspberry Truffle from Garnier (which the color I happened to LOVE, it just made me lose too much hair when I did it). My hair typically retains red pretty good and picks up red from ANY hair color so that's not a problem. Plus, I have pretty healthy hair (I take good care of it) so it takes color well. 

These are my choices I'm looking at and would love your opinions. What do you think? 

  • Revlon Colorsilk Luminista Haircolor, Red 150 - 

Grabbed from Google Product Search under "Shopping"

They are all similar colors, and I'm not going to grab all the pictures since that makes it difficult to load the page, and they wouldn't be my own anyway. :p I just did the main one I'm thinking about. 

So you tell me, which ones do you think would be best and would you choose for me? It'll be all-over color because well... I'm lazy like that... and I don't have THAT long in the bathroom these days. Don't even bother to ask, but let's just say that even eating sometimes involves scarfing and getting back chasing after little gremlins, or trying to get some writing in for five seconds. haha

What is your choice?

I may end up deciding to go with the majority... just because! 

My natural look is Irish basically. haha My Irish genes are the most dominant, which means green eyes (darker in the winter, and when I'm angry haha, and lighter {more emerald} in the summer, or when I'm happy!) and pale skin. You'll know it's summer when the freckles come speckling across the cheeks too. :)

Tootles! 

Lots of warm red hugs and loves coming free from me to you!!

Until next time!
Mwahs!

Silent relaxing sunday--wait it's Saturday. A day lost and found! :)

This week's   GBE   is about "Lost and Found." I know a lot of people some years back thought that I'd lost myself. I was even told it was the better part of myself. It took me years to figure out that it wasn't true. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I always believed it to be true. Until I finally had the courage to admit to myself, that they were in the wrong; not me.  That's the problem with some "friends." They aren't really your friends. Someone recently told me something that really hit home. It was profound even.  She said:  "The friend is not a friend. just a person with emotional gravity in your life."    Well that's true. Granted, the comment she had made was from a completely different happening, but still it works.  A lot of people are fortunate in having tons of close friends, even close friends that stick around their entire lifetime. I gave up on that notion a long time ago. I realized that mostly, friends w...

(GBE 2:Blog On) First Love

Old post being reposted. GBE2: Blog On's Topic this week is: First Love Click the link to find out what GBE2: Blog On is and how YOU can participate. If you love writing and/or blogging, it's the place to go! Great people, great fun, what more could you ask for? FIRST LOVE When I first saw the topic for this week's GBE2, my first thought was of the friendship I walked away from just last week. He was one of my first love's. But I had already talked about it on a previous web post so I wanted something different. I just didn't want to focus on it. Today, while I was doing dishes, a.k.a inspiring myself, I thought of a different first love. To myself. I do too. I love myself. I may not always like myself... I mean come on, if you had to live with her 24/7 she might drive you batty too. But I do love myself. People can tell you so. I don't need to. Well I did, but... I'm digressing. I'm quirky, crazy (two different things there obbb...

(GBE2: Blog On) Let go of the reins and you'll know freedom

This week's (4th) GBE2: Blog On topic is "Control." For more info head here I admit it, I'm a type-A personality. It was a learned behavior. I felt as though I needed to be in constant control of everything around me. I worked 3 jobs and went for weeks on occasion without a day off. I still felt as though I wasn't doing enough. Not around the house, not with my friends, not for dating, not even for work. I just have always had this "I'm not doing enough" attitude instilled in me from a lot of the immediate people around me. So a lot of my behavior was ingrained so deep that I still suffer with that. I feel as though no matter what, I'm not doing enough, being the best I can be, and all of that great unhealthy attitude one should not have. But I do. And I know it's not good, but I still suffer with feeling inadequate because I am just not doing enough. Which is wrong. It's just something that I suffer with. I admit to it....
