The results are in: Champagne Blonde

A statistically significant number of you have voted by now on what color my hair should be, and champagne blonde has beaten out platinum by a nose. Next time I do the roots I'm going to try to knock down the yellow a bit, and I just whacked off a couple of inches to neaten it up, but this is the new look.

Here it's air dried, and looks younger, I think. But I picked up a nice set of ceramic heat rollers at a yard sale (new in the box) for $2, so can do the 50's curls when I'm feeling more ambitious, or just want to look like a grownup. And if I want to look like a little dutch girl, it's still long enough to do pigtails.

I hasten to add that this photo doesn't do the look justice. It's edgy but pretty at the same time - think Debbie Harry meets Nina Persson.

I hate to say it, but removing the yellow from this hair is going to be tough. I know it because I've fought with it for years. And it gets more yellow in between touch-ups.

The only thing I have found that works is to interlace it with darker streaks (these will wash up) at about level 6.

I have to be honest and say that this color really ages you - you have such a pretty face and look really - 10 years younger in this picture:
