Here are some more photos that I took yesterday of my new hair color. See also New haircolor and school plans
But I think it looks quite a bit darker, and redder, in real life than it does in any of the photos, although in this one it looks more like it does in real life:
So Friday I’m planning to go to a salon to get some blonde highlights added to the existing hair color. I have a Dutch braid ponytail that I wear with my Viking garb, like so:
Here are closeups of the braid:
The highlights I’d like to get would match the lighter portion of the braid.
So my question to you is:
Should I go ahead and get the highlights, or just leave well enough alone (and save my money)?
Any and all comments would be very welcome! ❤
UPDATE February 27th: I’ve decided to cancel my appointment at the salon. I’m going to keep the color of my hair the way it is. 🙂
Guess the colors are always going to be slighty different in photos.

Thanks, you two! Several factors went into my decision, not the least being the cost of having highlights done at a salon…. 😛

Oh yes. That’s true.
And the time too.

Yup, and also having another harsh dye job done on my fragile hair, as well as the possibility that she would want to trim it some more, when I’m trying to let it grow! 😛

To be honest, dyeing the hair too often is not preferred. It does need nourishing and chemicals are harsh on hair!

Thank you, Robin. I’ve decided to skip the highlights, in large part because of the cost of having them done. And I’m getting used to the new color. 🙂
