| Nikki, I actually really, really like it! BUT....I tend to LOOOOOVE really dark hair...it's just my thing. No offense to blondes, but I do not like lighter-colored hair at all. However, me liking it is not the issue...lol...I hope it has since faded a little when you washed it so you're happy!! Never fun to have hair you're not comfortable with...

| I'm a licensed Cosmetologist. Washing your hair today won't make it fade, unless you use a harsh shampoo on it. I used the Dawn trick in beauty school after a color job went bad, it did lighten a couple of shades, but dried my hair out terribly. You are probably in shock from the drastic change, give it a couple of days, condition it good and see what you think. |

| Donating Senior Yorkie Talker  | I just saw the pics I like it . It looks natural. You're just not used to it. It matches your eyebrows and makes your eyes poop...give it a chance..

Thank you everyone!  I washed it 3 times. It's still wet but I don't think there's any difference. It actually feels... dare I even say it?....DRY!  I am not happy at all. I'd rather my hair look bad than feel bad- I'm really OCD about my hair being soft. I am not new to color, I don't even have any idea what my real hair color looks like, and this is not the first time it was colored by this hairdresser. It has NEVER felt dry before. I can't imagine why the color would have dried it out this time. He even did a PM Shine on it after coloring which adds shine and deep conditions. This is crazy! I just ordered a leave in hair treatment that I've read amazing reviews on called Esuchen RD so I'll have that in a few days. I'm going to glop on my Fekkai glossing cream for now and hope for the best.

| I really like the dark hair on you.. My complexion is light like yours and I have very dark hair (almost black) which is my natural color. To be honest I think the dark color brings out your eye color....and don't take this offensive because I really do not know how old you are. The darker color makes you look younger... |

| STOP.....HOLD IT....Oh crap nevermind saw you already washed.  Nikki I like it...I really do. I think it looks good but you know me I have always wanted to go dark so I am a sucker for dark hair. Honestly you are so beautiful I think anything looks good on you. Really I think you should just wear it for a few days and see if it grows on you and then if you still hate it go get it changed, I really like it though. You not going to Karen any more? I think you told me you switched but can't remember now.  What does Troy and Lauren think?

 One of the reasons I wanted to go darker was I thought the blond was aging me but I just didn't mean to go SO dark.Quote:
Caren you are so sweet- I totally love you! I did wash it but no change. I'm going to the new salon in downtown called One Love. I've been really happy with everything up until now but it's partly my own fault since I did bring in a picture. Troy and Lauren haven't seen it yet. Lauren will love it because she likes dark hair and hates when I go light. Troy (like most men) prefers blonds but he'll be sweet and say he likes it but I know he wont.

| BTW, when I washed my hair I washed my makeup off. As you can see from the pitures I posted I don't wear a whole lot. Well with this hair I NEED makeup- BAD! I looked like death with a clean face. I couldn't get the makeup back on fast enough.

| Nikki, how about some home remedy tips for the dryness? I heard ....i know it sounds gross...but olive oil or mayonaisse. You lather it all over your hair...put a shower cap over it..and let it sit for a while...its like a home remedy deep conditioning. Dark or light....just remember..we love you either way .

| Okay I just took another one for comparison. I think it maybe lightened a little? Am I delusional? Ignore the fact that it is completely and utterly flat- I paniced when it felt dry and used a ton of product, which my baby fine hair can't handle. eta- Please ignore the messy desk- how embarrassing. You can see the boys eating dinner in the background- they have to eat in here so Gracie doesn't steal their food.

| I think you look great! I've been gradually going darker each time I color mine because I know I'd freak out if I did it all at once. You're just not used to it, give it time. You look beautiful!

| Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator  | Oh, wow, girl - it's actually really sexy!!! I mean, you look HOT. You looked hot before, but this is just a different kind of hot. Just a dark-haired beauty instead of lighter! But, I can see why it'd be shocking for you - and if it doesn't *feel* like you, then it's even worse. I know, bc I've been there - I too was once too dark and had to wash w/ Dawn and Prell (or whatever it is) over and over and it was just awful trying to get it lighter  . I think I finally had someone lighten it bc I couldn't take it anymore...But wow, you can TOTALLY rock the dark hair!!!
