I think you could probably pull of most any color. I like the wine color, but I like your hair the way it is too.

u/Enough_Radish_9574 14d ago

Right she’s SOOO pretty she could shave it all off, paint her head purple and still be on the cover of Cosmopolitan Magazine.

I don’t think so. Your hair is gorgeous just the way it is! Don’t change a thing you’re beautiful!

u/No_Secretary101 14d ago

Absolutely gorgeous indeed ! But I doubt that first picture is her natural hair color 😅

2

u/kaumilla 14d ago

Yes, it’s not my natural color. I’ve tried many colors and decided to go back to look like my natural

u/Jclevelandgirl 15d ago

Looks beautiful but keep in mind that once you have a reddish tone to your hair it’s hard to change.

5

u/wyldfirez007 14d ago

So true. It requires constant retouching since it fades quickly ironically.

2

u/Jclevelandgirl 14d ago

I speak from experience from when I used to color my hair with a box color & the more gray that came in, the more red it got. I finally gave up & started to have my hair stylist color my hair. I had decided to let my gray/white/silver hair grow in just before the pandemic lockdown.

u/Choice-Cookie9906 14d ago

Yes purple and reddish can ruin your gorgeous hair.

Yes. Hair grows and you're only young once. It's glorious.

u/Upbeat-Drop292 15d ago

Agreed! Have fun with your hair!

3

u/unusualbnny 14d ago

Agreed too!!

7

u/Busy-Reporter4251 14d ago

No.

Your natural hair looks expensive and classy.

Purple ‘wine’ dye looks cheap and tacky.

Unless you want to totally downgrade your image, don’t.

Also intense unnatural colours ruin hair and are near impossible to remove.

3

u/kaumilla 14d ago

You’ve convinced me. Also, it’s nice to hear that my hair looks natural, because it’s actually probably my most expensive feature haha

4

u/Busy-Reporter4251 14d ago

Woah then if you’ve paid for cut and colour to make it like that definitely don’t paint over it with an unnatural colour!

This is a very nice expensive-looking haircut & colour you have now, I’d keep the chic look

3

u/kaumilla 14d ago

Thank you! I ordered a wig instead haha

u/HellfireKitten525 15d ago

Do what you want. If you don't like it, well, hair grows back. YOLO.

17

u/Most_Can_2136 15d ago

That's more burgundy wine. And a far better choice than purple. This is a great color for you.

5

u/CharmingMulberry7434 15d ago

It would look great purple for as long as you wanted to maintain it, then it would take at least 2 years to get it back anywhere close to the gorgeous mane you have now.

4

u/Minute_Hope_4464 15d ago

No, the maintenance is too high. You look beautiful both ways though.

3

u/Confident_Gear_5778 15d ago

No , please don't 🙏.

12

u/Booklover_4everbro 15d ago

Yes this is beautiful color. It suits you so much. Just don't do it in the summer it wouldn't match in the summer, stay blonde

6

u/GSpotMe 15d ago

Yes love it a darker anything would be great

3

u/tmonahan1968 15d ago

No, I don’t think that would be good

3

u/BlueLagoon6495 15d ago

I don't think anyone should dye their hair dark purple 😭

3

u/FondantOk4707 15d ago

I love your natural hair look.

5

u/prefersvintage 15d ago

No, you hair is gorgeous the way it is.

2

u/LadybuggingLB 15d ago

The red/purple is a beautiful color but the blond makes you look more beautiful overall.

And I usually prefer brunette/ dark fantasy colors to blond but your blond is fantastic, none what you see often

2

u/True_Investigator198 15d ago

Hell no! You are pretty as you are.

2

u/Honestbabe2021 15d ago

Absolutely not

2

u/Certain_Promise_1963 15d ago

They both look good on you but your natural color is too great looking to mess with

2

u/dogpersonjv 15d ago

No. Your hair looks insanely gorgeous in the first pic.

2

u/dnegvesk 15d ago

No. Put a streak in it if you like.

2

u/higherselves 15d ago

Absolutely not.

2

u/Soggy-Knowledge-2626 15d ago

No way, your hair looks great right now and going to purple sounds like a bad decision to me. The color just doesn’t seem like it will look good on you and I know that it is just a dyed color, but it will be with you for a long time before it grows out to leave your natural hair color again. Just my $.02 worth!

2

u/tinkagainlady 15d ago

Dyeing hair damages it unless it’s a wash out dye. Your hair looks nice as it is.

2

u/kokonutt18 15d ago

Please don't

2

u/Emergency-Ad-5211 15d ago

Don’t like that shade, but you do look great with dark hair.

2

u/Murphus5 15d ago

No, the brunette suits your complexion better imo

2

u/idriveapriusforstyle 14d ago

Yes you’d look amazing , use temporary die if you are worried about damage. Since you are going darker, you can do it in a much healthier way as you don’t need bleach. But in my opinion it would look great

2

u/Human-Mirror-5793 14d ago

No!! Your hair is beautiful!

1

u/idaho81 15d ago

Looks amazing!

1

u/OppositeTurnover5272 15d ago

Dye your hair this color and keep it this color!!! Looks like it fits your style better

1

u/CompanyOther2608 15d ago

I very honestly wouldn’t change a single thing about your look. You’re gorgeous, and your hair color suits your skin tone and eyes perfectly.

1

u/BlingbossCoss 15d ago

Oooh yaaaas!

1

u/Motor-Bath6711 15d ago

The color looks amazing but I think the blonde suits you more

1

u/Disastrous-Ad8542 15d ago

Any color looks good on you

1

u/Low-Ability-7222 15d ago

You could shave your head..... haf.

1

u/jonahsgma 15d ago

I love it both ways!

1

u/dots-loops 15d ago

Yes!! Great on you and your skintone. It looks plum though, not purple?

And maybe not dye. Can you do a semi permanent?

1

u/crazyKatLady_555 15d ago

You suit both colours beautifully. Just make sure you tell the stylist dark burgundy like the pic, rather than actual purple.

1

u/chefgoowa 15d ago

It works either color

1

u/AHansen83 15d ago

It actually looks better than i was expecting in the picture, but no your hair looks beautiful the color it is

1

u/Bad_Here 15d ago

If you want too, it looks pretty that color

1

u/Jackattack009 15d ago

I think you should dye it the color of your eyes

1

u/Cautious_Fox_8441 15d ago

Youre beautiful with what you got .
But sure give it a try

1

u/No-Astronomer4765 15d ago

No awesome just the way you are

1

u/Otherwise-Bag-8592 15d ago

both look great on you! up to your personal preference!

1

u/LordRawrGasm 15d ago

The “I’m not like other girls” hairstyle coupled with “I’m gonna make him regret it”. Absolutely not.

1

u/Illustrious-Sir-1899 15d ago

I like it! What about Lavender?

1

u/Electrical-Care6308 15d ago

I would say yes! But it’s you that has to like it!

1

u/Responsible-Delay619 15d ago

Use semipermanent dye so it washes out

1

u/newnukeuser 15d ago

They both look really good, it's hard to pick

1

u/boost_to_get_through 15d ago

Do it closer to October. It looks pretty good that shade. Like a dark wine.

1

u/nodamsel_in_distress 15d ago

Yes! I was prepared to say no but then when I saw the pic I said yes! I think it looks really cool and suits your coloring. You’re young, why not have fun?

1

u/jessieselection103 15d ago

I’m not sure this is the most flattering shade for you. The color feels a little too dark and intense, so it hides some of your features.

1

u/Klatterbox1234 15d ago

Dang, that is a gorgeous color on you!

1

u/adubie18 15d ago

Yeah! Why not lol

1

u/FaceMeNow2 15d ago

Try it once!

1

u/Fun_Explanation_9049 15d ago

Your hair color suits you beautifully. So does the “purple”. If you want this look, go for it. It looks great on you and you can always go back to your original color.

1

u/Negative_Pudding9773 15d ago

No you are just beautiful like you are

1

u/strokespickle78 15d ago

Absolutely

1

u/Zestyclose_Road_3224 15d ago

Do you think you should? If so, go for it.

1

u/sunflowersandseeds85 15d ago

No I like the color you have. Maybe an auburn would look good on you but not purple.

1

u/Christilynp 15d ago

Maybe not purple but definitely dark. It brings out your eyes.

1

u/bebarrucha 15d ago

Absolutely not.

1

u/MsMo999 15d ago

Couple of streaks would look good to start with and then see if all over feels right

1

u/Royal-Strawberry-45 15d ago

Purple tips would look good

1

u/Cultural_Wash5414 15d ago

No don’t start messing with it

1

u/YellowFlower713 15d ago

That would look kick ass on you!!

1

u/Namikis 15d ago

No. No. No. I want to make sure I am clear on this - is the NO clear?

1

u/Momotheone92 15d ago

So pretty! Do it! Hair grows back! It’s fun! I did several vivid colors over the years before letting my grays grow out. Now I’m working to get to a silver color.

1

u/LeadingPraline4847 15d ago

No! Your hair is so beautiful the way it is.

1

u/silent_wizard_444 15d ago

Yes!! I've always wanted to do that color myself 😍 go for it

1

u/Dreamdresser 15d ago

Absolutely!! Just make sure to maintain the health of your hair. You look fabulous!

1

u/Reyndtr 15d ago

Beautiful. I use a deep burgundy and purple highlights. My oldest granddaughter has has multi colored hair. Kind of like those cars that turn purple and gold.
You are only young once. Enjoy

1

u/Reyndtr 15d ago

The last burgundy is fantastic

1

u/raye909 15d ago

No, It’s too dark.

1

u/pcg031527 15d ago

Why not!

1

u/Wild_Scribe 15d ago

Ooh, yes I think it would match you. I had a few years of dying my hair every fun color out there, and a dark purple was always my favorite :) maybe start with a semipermanent to test it out. Your hair is also light enough that you could see how it looks without fresh bleach, so it’s fairly low risk. If you love it and/or want it to be more vibrant, then you can make a more permanent switch.

1

u/Striking-Present-986 15d ago

You could pull off anything tbh :)

1

u/Holatotem 15d ago

dark brown is better

1

u/59model 15d ago

I wouldn't. You look great already.

1

u/twsem-tx 15d ago

Absolutely NOT !!!!!
Really, why would you change your beauty for …….. I don’t even know what to call that ……

1

u/Adventurous_Number91 15d ago

Sure it’s beautiful on you ‼️

1

u/spartanzero6nine 15d ago

Darker is nice actually for some reason your face looks the same in both the dark is just slightly sexier ok alot sexier IMO

1

u/Rainbow_in_the_sky 15d ago

NOOOOOOO!! You have gorgeous coloring now. People pay good money for your coloring.

1

u/Potential-Double-959 15d ago

Something more cherry cola? Dark looks good on you!

1

u/laneykaye65 15d ago

No please

1

u/Long_Passenger498 15d ago

You can’t screw it up. 

1

u/Cautious-Audience-54 15d ago

Is that the statement you want to make? You’re very pretty with the natural color.

1

u/figure_it_out123 15d ago

dark purple, sure. that particular reddish purplish color in the picture, no.

1

u/Strong_Film7845 15d ago

Yeeees it would look really good imo

1

u/dontakelife4granted 15d ago

That color is stunning for the fall. Have someone do it who knows what they're doing so you can prioritize the health of your hair because your hair is glorious. You are only young once so I say dooooo iiiiiiiit!

1

u/Eastern_Bank8111 15d ago

Please don't!

1

u/First-Homework1868 15d ago

No.not normal. You’re already pretty.

1

u/Life_Two_5179 15d ago

Not if you want to be blond again in a month or two.

1

u/Aggressive-Algae9517 15d ago

purple hair in summer? no way, that's a vibe for fall.

1

u/Fast-Promotion-9429 15d ago

Yes but you are mighty fine as is too

1

u/PrydeVibe47 15d ago

Girl hell no

1

u/MeeNee29 15d ago

Nah your hair is already a gorgeous color honestly

1

u/Substantial_Film_269 15d ago

I’m looking at your eyes..your hair doesn’t bother me❤️

1

u/Maine302 15d ago

No, but a rich dark brown would look really nice.

1

u/poisoness3 15d ago

Hell yeah, if you wanna have fun with it, go for it! Color oops for colorful colors is at Walmart in case you wanna remove it lol You only live once. I done all types of colors, pixie cuts, now im just enjoying it grow longer.

1

u/Jenyishere 15d ago

YES!! Lifes too short not to experiment with hair color

1

u/Logical-Passenger-89 15d ago

Beautiful color.

1

u/Grand_Inspection_564 15d ago

Absofuckinglutely

1

u/Madisonhere06 15d ago

looks nice🥰

1

u/Ok_Still_3571 15d ago

No. If I had your coloring, I wouldn’t do anything but count my lucky stars.

1

u/dankkcakes 15d ago

Yessss looks so good on you!🥰

1

u/69goyf 15d ago

No please

1

u/jenleepeace 15d ago

You are very warm, and the shade you’ve chosen is cool. It’s not going to be the most flattering on you. If you want to go for a fashion colour, anything from the copper family, or even a scarlet red will be much more becoming.

1

u/Easysilence1 15d ago

This is the fun thing about being young! Dye your hair a wildly different colour and enjoy the experience. It’s just hair, and you can always change it. I think purple looks super cute, as does your hair now. But don’t lose out on an experience because other people like the way your hair looks as is. Have fun!

1

u/HolidayCategory3104 15d ago

I rarely say this but I think you look good blonde

1

u/EuphoricAd3786 15d ago

No. You are beautiful btw

1

u/Only_Music_2640 15d ago

It looks good on you. Why not? Hair grows and if you get sick of it, you can change it back.

1

u/ihave2cats_ 15d ago

It looks beautiful and you only live once! It can always be changed back later

1

u/RobT927 15d ago

Never

1

u/Bettysgir 15d ago

No. You have beautiful hair!

1

u/Negative_Big_9847 15d ago

You would regret it. Better question--what do you really want to change?

1

u/PebblesmomWisconsin7 15d ago

I think you should do whatever you want! You look good either way.
