Kitty Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Since I've needed to, my hair has been Honey Gold Blond (No 104) from Nice and Easy. Beats being mousey or, worse still, salt & pepper.What's your colour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pads Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 always use to be a bit mousey, now going grey in the real world. but in my world its 2 boxes of red and brown henna mixed[:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KathyC Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Several non matching shades of blonde highlights, arising from having my hair done at the local college's training salon. I'm not being mean, but when my own salon put up their prices to over £90, I came to agree with my late father that "your whole head's not worth that much!".

Just Katie Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Oooh I do love the opportunity to talk about myself[:P]. I have fair floppy hair with a few blonde highlights in the front. I have white white skin (inherited from my irish grandmother[:@]) and green green eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missy Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 ...was blonde hair, straight, down to below shoulder length when a wee lass. Then around my 20's, it got cut very short to about 2inches! long ... from then on the colour went dark auburn. Since my 40's it is still short, with tendency to curl up in the rain! I hate it when it rains having just come out of the salon, all nicely done up and broke, one drop of rain the whole lot goes up in tight curls!.... The colour is vintage bottled mahogany to disguise the salt&pepper. I sort of keep with the adage that all french women, past their 40's, colour their hair is that kind of brown dark red woody colour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suze01 Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Natural strawberry blonde. Have had low lights in the past as I really do not like my colour sometimes. But at the moment it's just as it comes. I suppose at least I don't have an issue with grey hairs coming through [;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nimportequoi Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Dark brown, but coloured now to avoid the onset of grey. However, in summer, thanks to the sun and chlorine, it goes an orangey/dark blonde on top, haven't yet been able to do anything about this. Have successfully managed to avoid all attempts by my French hairdresser to make me go red/burgandy/purple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 According to MOH the answer in my case is 'expensive' [:)] Brown base with three different shades of subtle blonde highlights, to blend with the grey. (in hairdresser speak !) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeb Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Strange things have happened this summer to my hair, and it's now the colour of straw! I was (I am) mouse underneath but used a chestnut dye for years to brighten it up a bit. Then, this Spring, I bucked up courage and had a mesch (sp), red, chestnut and blond highlights. Sounds pretty dire doesn't it, but this is what the hairdresser at the local French salon offered/suggested!Now it's all bleached by the sun, and for the first time in my life, I'm mainly blond hiding the mouse underneath! I have a feeling I'll be grey by winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknown Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 My hair is very dark, my Mothers side ofthe family are almost jet black, they are Irish but decended from Spain???? So my skin is pretty fair, with green eyes (Irish) and very dark hair.Trouble is now, its all turning grey, so hands up, I use hair colour now, but have to buy two boxes as my hair is pretty long. This vanity lark is expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philmco Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 As a mere man of a certain age, I am of course a very distinguished silver colour, without any artificial aids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I know it's dreadfully sexist but one thing that slightly gives me the weebie jeebies is men that dye their hair. Luckily MOH still has a full head of hair which is a rather nice silvery grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty Korrigan Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 This is all rather girly isn't it... I don't care what colour your hair is so long as your cuff matches your collar love...No peroxide blondes in my little black book.... RAAAA!!!

opas Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 You know Ty, only the other day I was talking with the mother of one of my daughters friends , whose hair i thought was natural blond..........she lifted her arms up to wave to someone..........Black underarm hair , masses of it. So why the head vanity bit and leave the pit hair natural and long enough to perm!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patf Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I used to be ginger, and while the unseen bits are still surprisingly ginger my head hair is a mixture of brown and grey. So I use L'Oreal light chestnut which covers everything nicely. But it soon bleaches out in the summer. I colour it myself at home. Surprising how many of you are fair to blonde - I have visual images of some of you which I definitely need to change now. Pat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted July 27, 2006 Author Share Posted July 27, 2006 Doing a quick tot up, it would appear that the hair colourants are approx 12 whereas the naturals (excluding the one man who was brave enough to post) approx 2.So to join this Forum, you are in a minority if you don't use a bottle (on your hair, that is).

Harley Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 What is it about collar and cuffs matching with you guys! Do ladies not mind if a chap has to dye his hair? Perhaps we are interested in more important things..................................like the length of his tie[;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
