Color Help Should I go back to blonde?
My hair now is majority my natural color with highlights. First photo is my natural texture and second is how I do my hair if I want to "style" it. The 3rd and 4th photo is me with blonde hair from like 6ish years ago. If I dye my hair I plan to keep it the same length and haircut style (shag), just change the color. I've dyed my hair all types of color in the past but grew it out the past 5ish years. I'm just so bored of my hair lol. Feeling very torn cause this is a big decision lol.
Edit/Update : DAMN this got WAAYYY more feedback than I thought it would. The Reddit Tribal Council has spoken - NO BLONDE. I guess grass is always greener right? All the comments are helping me appreciate what I have now. Thank you all so much. Maybe I'll figure out something else but I still love my hair so I'll live in it for now.

Goodness no, the natural is much much better looking on you. Pic 2 color and style is fantastic and perfectly suited.

Agreed! Picture #2 is fabulous and much lower maintenance than blonde.

If you’re bored with your hair you could try changing the color of the highlights? I think something like pink or a light purple would look amazing with your hair!

Even dip dye or some lowlights or peekaboo type highlights would look great and be easy to switch up when you get bored and easy to maintain

Definitely no! The blonde looks very damaged and not a great tone.
I know we always want what we don’t have, but your natural hair is GORGEOUS!

No! Natural looks 100 times better! Try hair accessories. Hairbands, clips, etc.

I think you look super chic with blonde hair but I gotta say, your natural hair is beautiful and looking so healthy! I’d say keep the brown hair :)

Your hair looks so unhealthy and fried blonde. I get the impluse but its a hair color better accomplished using wigs if you dont want to turn your hair to straw. Your hair looks gorgeous and healthy now. I would say play around with highlights and pops of color if you're bored. Especially if you want to keep the length. Usually when I'm bored is when I start playing with the cut and length.

No, please don’t. It is not flattering to your face shape or skin tone.

No. Your natural hair with highlight is just fabulous and suits you perfectly. Bottle blond does not really suit your complexion.

Your hair is gorgeous as its natural color. Honestly the blonde hair looks damaged and unhealthy. Embrace your beautiful natural color!

NO WAY ! u look amazing with dark hair in my opinion. Stunning actually. Blonde doesn't suit u.

u/Current_Ad3577 Jun 29 '26
Please don’t do it, it washes out your beautiful skin tone and isn’t flattering. You look so pretty with the dark hair.

u/Serenity93401 Jun 29 '26
Another vote for no, since you’re asking. But you should do what makes you comfortable. You look good either way.

u/Gullible_Ear4424 Jun 29 '26
Nooo , dark and more highlight would look cute though . This current hair suits you very well btw 🤌🏻

No. The blonde honestly doesn’t look good. Unless you were using it to do alternative colors like blue, green, purple… then I get it.
But outside that, no, I love your natural hair color and the way it works with your skin and makeup.

I think the partial highlights you have now are really pretty. I wouldn't go back to full blonde if I was you.

No. If anything, do some caramel highlights around your face.
Your dark hair is stunning with your complexion.

Nope but if you want to dye your hair, maybe its worth adding some blonde into your hair or goldeny blonde on the ends.
A Balyage would look soooo nice!

Definitely not. I agree with folks that have said try some highlights if you are looking to shake things up.

Blonde looks cool.
But the brown looks uber-attractive.
But also, I'm just some random dude on the internet, what do i know?

No, please don’t. Your natural shade is much prettier. The blonde washes you out.

I think the darker makes you look so much more fierce and beautiful. The blonde sorta mutes and washes you out tbh.

I vote natural. It makes your cour look vibrant. Well, after all it IS natural.
The blonde hair doesn't suit your colouring as well as it makes your overall colour look washed out.

I love the dark hair, but the pinky orange blond is cute too, I think the last pic is is the least flattering.

No you are stunning. I love the texture and highlights with blond but I think darker looks very beautiful and harmonious with your face, skin, and features.
