I got tired of my mousey brown(with grey) a couple years ago. frosted it well after 4 times I was a blond, for 3 years . I decided I wanted to go bak closer to my color foun a nice straberry blond looked good but faded way to fast. So I tried a new kind and color Dk auburn well I was really red for a week . it now is a color i really like. (no grey either) My hubby ignores what i do he doesn't understand why i don't like the way God made me. (this comes from a 6'5" large but not fat hansome man) I'm 5'2" 166lbs give me a break.
