So I have been feeling really ugly lately and I am really unhappy with my hair right now. Its a copperish blondish color (if you have seen mandy moore lately, that color) and its got all these uneven choppy layers, so I'm going to grow it out like Reese Witherspoon (and I have clip-in extensions right now to create the allusion of it) Its getting that time where I NEED to touch it up, but I can't afford to get it done, everyone says dont do blonde yourself, and part of me misses the brown hair, I just don't know!
So which color? TIA!
#1 current color blondish red weirdish
#2 original color when I was 16, mostly natural
#3 dyed this with a box color which was nice and cheap.
Most definitely #3. It is absolutely beautiful and looks so shiny and healthy. Let me say that I know exactly how you feel. I am going through the same dilemma. I finally got my hair as blonde as I have wanted it, but it is sooo expensive to keep up, $75 - $100 every 6 weeks depending on if I have to buy any products. Also, now that it is moving into fall and I will be very pale, it sort of washes me out. Deep inside I just want to go back to my brown, but I am scared. I am so indecisive. One minute I want blonde (I think for the wrong reasons) and the next minute I want brown ( I think for the right reasons), but it seems lately when I am blonde I want brown and when I am brown I want blonde.
Cali, what is the color that you used in #3? From the picture it looks like it has great dimension to it.

ITA! Whenever I go blonde, I see all these beautiful brown shades and wish I was a brunette, and whenever I go brown I wish I was a blonde.
Cali, #3 looks striking on you!

Bloomie and wetbandit42, that's exactly how I feel! . Thanks so much girls that really helps me out again, and its def. the answer I wanted to hear
bloomie: This box color is Feria, I think it was the medium natural brown I used? (I have golden undertones). It worked SO well, after I planned on going blonde and didn't dye it for a long time, the color didn't budge! And it comes with a big tube of conditioner that is supposed to keep it really shiny, I'm def. buying it again!

Thanks for all your help girls, I dyed it back brown and I feel SO much better now!
Did you use the Feria? I am thinking about just doing mine myself instead of going to the salon (too expensive when I would rather spend money on shoes). I have heard that a person that is as blonde as I am now (towhead platinum-y) can't just put a box of color on their head without adding in fillers. Do you know anything about that?
