    Dear Bees, I need your opinions! I want to change my hair color. I'm tired of the brown. I have very pale skin with lots of freckles in the summer, and I was born with dull, medium brown hair. It's nothing special and it doesn't stand out. I've colored it a darker, shinier color before that was pretty, but I got bored with it. I've also colored it red before which looks great with my skin, but I get worried the second the roots start to show that it might look too unnatural. My sister has naturally carrot red hair that is beautiful, and I wish I could have hair that pops and stands out like hers. I want hair that is as bright as my personality, but I'm scared that if I go lighter and don't like it, that I'll end up ruining my hair... and as I am trying to grow out my   shoulder-length bob for my wedding next summer, I think now would be a good time to find a color, before it's too close to the wedding to make big changes.

    Here are some (large) pictures:

    The top half of hair in this picture is my natural hair color.

    carrot red with highlights (what I want to try!)I used face-in-hole and a picture of julia roberts to see how this might look on me, but I'm still not sure if I should... (If I do, I plan on going to a professional to get it done right.)

    So, what do you think bees? I really want a more vibrant/but still natural looking color. Is there one that looks best? or one you think I should try? Thanks for your help!!

    Oh please go with orangey-red. I wish I was pretty enough to pull that off. It's so pretty on you, especially!

    I think you look great with red hair though your natural color is very nice as well.  I have colored my hair a fair amount and am a natural blonde.  I have learned that I look best as a blonde and that it is me.  However, I am going to lighten it up for my wedding and be a true platinum (it's just very light blonde right now).  I think about how I will feel about the pics and stuff much later and I think it isn't a stretch and it goes with the glamour and bombshelly-ness that I am going for.

    I love love love the dark brown. It might partially be because of how you styled it in that picture. I think it goes well with your skin tone though. I also really like dark hair, but since it's just sort of a more intense version of your natural version, it looks great and like you're shining through for real.

    You should add a poll.

    I think the orange red is my favourite.
