From Brunette to Blonde – A Personal Experience

Having always enjoyed my natural dark brown hair I had never even considered changing the color until the first grays, or rather white hairs, started appearing. I had never considered blonde hair to be superior to dark in any way. In fact, both colors have their advantages. But the truth is, that as soon as our hair starts to lose color so does our skin, imperceptibly at first, but it isn’t long before it becomes noticeable. Even more so when we cling tenaciously to our original hair color with ever more frequent coloring sessions.

Not only does it eventually leave us looking tired and drained, but often the white hairs don’t seem to take or hold the color.

After several years of persevering I finally decided to take the plunge and go blonde – what a disaster my first attempt was, even though I had been to a fully qualified hairdresser. In fact, to be perfectly honest, it took quite some time, and some pretty disastrous results, before I found a hairdresser who could achieve the results I desired. There is no sure way of finding an expert colorist, but personal recommendation is the best way I have found. Ask around, and find someone with the kind of color you are looking for, then consult their hairdresser/colorist. Always check their qualifications!

I personally have three different colors put in which gives an amazingly natural effect, even on a brunette with brown eyes. With so many shades and combinations to choose from the colorist will almost certainly have the colors suited to you, and if not, she should advise you accordingly.

I would strongly advise against any attempt at home coloring or highlighting in order to go blonde.

Going blonde does have a drying effect on the hair, which makes it more fragile. However, the market is awash with excellent products to condition and replenish the moisture.

The trick is to find an expert colorist, someone who specializes, and will be able to advise you accordingly, not only on the most appropriate shades and how they will be applied, but also on the best products to use in order to care for your newly blonde hair.

Going blonde doesn’t work for everyone, but it does work for a surprisingly large proportion of women sooner or later, and can have a wonderfully rejuvenating effect.

Oh, and a word to the wise, be prepared for the extra male attention you are likely to attract as you toss your golden locks!
