I had a question about dying my hair in another thread (not mine) but incase noone seen it i thought it would be better to post it here..lol

ok so i have a light skin tone however! i spray tan once-twice a week so therefor that changes my 'skin tone' right? the reason being is i would like to dye my hair and lashes/brows either very dark brown-black. but someone told me as i am light skin toned it wouldnt suit? BUT as i look a lot darker from the tans would black suit me then? hope this all makes sense..at least i know what i am talking about rofl.

i am sooooo sick of blonde also we are going into autumn, then winter here so i wanted a drastic change! nothing mid brown boring or anything! and i want to give my hair a rest from being blonde all the time.

thanks nic

p.s. i forgot to add that i will be continuing my spray tans throught the cooler months, so i wont be going back to really white which i am usually lol

let me know your opinions.

 
Well if you do dye your hair and want to go back to blonde it can be a tad tricky. The thought of tampering with my lashes and brows color wise terrifies me, but that's just me.

I don't think that black hair looks bad with a light skin tone, but not everyone can carry it off. I know that isn't much help and I am sorry. If you have a store in your area that sells wigs I would go in and try on a few, take some pics, and see if the color suits you.

Ooooh and I LOVE black hair! :glasses:

 
i naturally really pale, and i dyed my hair a Dark brown but i was tanning and looked really good, but now im not tanning and im just using sunless and now my hair is brownblack and people give me compliments all the time, so i guess it looks ok. i dyed my eyebrows when i did it, but i would really think about doing ur lashes, it seems risky. me, i just always make sure i got atleast one coat of black mascara on and im fine.

p.s how do u like mystic, i really wanna try it but i heard so many mixed reviews and i really dont want to go to a bed anymore(even though i love it)?

 
ok i should put a few pics up so it may make it easier to decide....lol oobladi i am trained in eyelash/brow tinting its very basic and straightforward, i do it most of the time so it would be the same but just a darker tint. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

also we have no places where i am with wigs etc i have thought of that but we just dont great idea but!

heres a few pics ..

I guess I should be careful of who I am preaching at. I didn't know that you were a pro. Very cool!

You + Black hair = Sultry in my opinion. You really are a beautiful lady!

 
i think you are very pretty and could pull it off, but maybe you should go try on a couple of wigs to really see how you would look befor you commit, i love pale skin and dark hair reminds me of snow white

 
ROFL thats funny! sorry i should have explained it sounded as though i was just going to wack some black hair dye on my brows and lashes didnt it! lol

and thankyou for the kind comment.

 
I think you should dye your hair black! I have a light skin tone, and I am naturally blonde, but I look really washed out as a blonde, so I started dying it dark brown and eventually went to black. I wouldn't have it any other way.

 
I have black hair and pretty pale skin. *See profile pics* I think it looks alright.

 
Yea i think it could look good my friend has a very similar tone to yours, skin tone that is and she pulls it off pretty well, although maybe dark dark brown would be better as it would still have some warmth to it.
