I want to re-dye, but don't know what colour I should do. Thanks! — Deanna
A: Deanna, I think it is wonderful that you go to extremes to really check out your hair options.
I agree with you that the blonde is not necessarily the best colour for you... but it's not that bad on you. I like it.
However, I recommend that you have again what you already had—brunette.
I'm totally digging the longer, darker hair, and eyeliner.
Nicole Richie at the 2010 Met Gala.
There is a warm tone in your hair that makes it unique, and the ends are a fraction lighter, with a more golden tone than the rest of the colour. This adds so much personality to the subtext of your hair—a subtle but effective detail. I would play this up.

Jessica Alba at the 2013 Variety Power of Women event.
I would like you to leave your hair long, with long layers to give you some movement. With your natural texture, a non-cut is the best cut for you.
