I had a hard time deciding. So I picked Scarlett. When I was looking for pictures to use as my profile picture a theme came forward. They all have blue eyes and at some point had darker hair, sometimes reddish. Now I am a blonde, but I was drawn to them as brunette's. I really thought they all looked way more beautiful in darker shades. Their eyes just shined blue....Maybe I would look better darker...???
So maybe in a moment of insanity, maybe it was that I just saw Scarlett with such beautiful mahogany hair, maybe it's that 8 out of 10 Victoria Secret model's are brunette, maybe it was a weak moment of being sick of my blonde hair....Betty or Veronica?!
Well I went out and did the unthinkable, bought a box of mahogany brown hair dye.... Drank my Strowbow and did it.
This is me before...
Oh to add to I love installment, I bought something to cheer me up from the shock of now be a mahogany head...
OPI's Alice in Wonderland theme nail polish... LOVE. Sparkles?! Oh my!
Well I will go walk by a mirror and faint again with my spinning head double take's I have been doing all day. I should use a mantra: "I am a mahogany head and I am ok with that..."

The dark hair looks AWESOME, I would stick with it for a while!
Love the red. I've been meaning to go back and do read again (I think I did it 2 years ago- maybe more) And I LOVED it. For my birthday last year I meant to do it but th hair dresser talked me into doing almost black. Didn't love black but I love your red!
i love that color!!! what did you use?
and what is your hair color naturally?
your eyes really POP!
and both hair colors look great on you...
also, love your button! you did a fantastic job! i'm super impressed... picnik is so fun!
Thanks ladies!
I was having a little dyer's remorse. But I am getting used to it and really liking how blue my eyes look. I think I will really like in.. 2 days.
Kassi- Thanks! My natural color is like a ashy blonde, blah boring, so I am usually just get highlight's, but I was getting sick of roots and...you know what happened next!
The color is actually two color's,as going from blonde to brown usually turns hair green, and the opposite of green is red so I used a chocolate brown whatever Garnier color then right after I used the 100% Color Brand in Red. Now it is a nice mahogany brown. No Green!
I am pretty smitten with my button's, thanks again! picnik is my new Polyvore.
That colour is so awesome! Nice job.
