    Hi Bees,

    My hair is currently short and i am growing it out for my wedding next november. As someone who has grown their hair out many time before it is important to pic a hair colour before beignning the process so you dont damage your hair any further by changing your mind mid-way through.

    I am leaning toward re, but we will see what everyone thinks. Keep in mind i am not wearing any makeup in this pic. When i have eye makeup/blush/ and lipstick on i can pretty much pull off any of these colours. I have also attached a pic of my wedding gown so you can see what it will be next to.

    I like the red, but as a natural red head, I'm a bit partial.  The brunette is a close 2nd runner up.  How about a dark red, so it is on the line of brunette and red?

    @T-Rex: I always feel the same being a natural red head as well. =)

    Honestly, I think brown suits you the best.

    I'm a hair-dye-addict with a similar skintone and think that you could pull off all three!

    What color feels the most like 'you'? You don't want to look at your pictures and think, "Who the heck is this girl?"

    CupCakeMeg  - I agree!

    But for the sake of the poll I voted brunette. I like it just a bit more than the red. :-)

    You're lucky, you pull of any of those colours. Although I think the brown looks the best, especially with the subtle highlights. Or like others suggested a red/brown would look good too. By the way, you have great skin!

    Can I say in between? I vote for brunette with some red foils (try a low light and a less subtle color..the two tones will pop).

    Here is a photo of my hair for an example, I am sooo addicted.

    @MrsNeutrino i used dailymakeover.com it is a great site where you can try on thousands of hairstyles. It is also totally free once you create an account.

     

    My natural colour is a light warm brown. My dad is a natural redhead so i think i got some of  his colouring mixed in. I have gone from burgindy to brown to red and many shades in between. So, it is hard to say what colour feels like "me". I have had a serious haircolour addicition for a long time so i havent found"my" colour yet...

    Here are a few pics of my real hair when it was different coloirs

    You look amazing in the dark brown, and I love the reds on you too. I voted red, but looking at the photo of you in your dress I think the dark brown would be stunning for your wedding day.

    I love the warm brown, you look so fresh and young. My 2nd favorite is the dark red. I think you look a little too pale/contrasty (yes, I made up that word) with the dark brown? though you look great so you're gonna be gorgeous no matter what you choose!

    Chestnutt! OR I say whatever is closest to your roots so you just have to do it every so often and not over process your hair:)

    Based on your real life pictures, I really like the warm brown the best.

    BTW, I've definitely seen your first picture (you in your dress) on davidsbridal.com when I was looking at that dress! Haha. I was like, "I know I've seen this girl before..."

    I like the warm brown best - maybe because it looks the most natural on you?  This is just my opinion, but I think hair color looks best when it's not obvious that it has been dyed.  I think with the other colors you posted, it is obvious that it is not your natural hair color, but again, that's just my opinion and to be taken with a grain of salt!  I just think the warm brown is the most flattering for you and your skin tone.
