This is me:


Forgive how tired I look. It's been a long day.

See my hair? I haven't colored it in like 6 months. Maybe more. There's absolutely not one speck of black left in it. In fact, it's pretty much my natural color for the first time in 13 years. I want to do something with it, but I have no idea. Something with highlights or streaks, I guess. So, anyone have any suggestions? You can show me a picture or draw right on my photo or whatever. I just need an idea or two. The only constraint is that because of our dress code at work I can't do any fun colors. So, any streaks have to be in hair colors found naturally. blah...

I LOVE your curly hair. I would give anything to have it.

I have one straight, very fine hair. I hate mine!

I'm pretty fond of my curly hair. That wasn't the case when I was a teen though, since I wanted to look like everyone else. Plus, it was a big frizzy mess.

If you REALLY want to do something to it, I would say highlights.

[Did you take that pic with your camera phone or a digital camera?]

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think that's where I'm going. I just don't know what colors I want to do yet.

I took the pic with my camera phone since I was too lazy to dig out my digital.

[auzrais.livejournal.com]

That's what I thought, but I thought "That's way too freakin' clear for a camera phone". :)

Yea for highlights. Hm... reds go good with black... blondes blend better with browns... I'm partial to reds myself. (Am I rambling? Yeah, I think I am.)

In this pic, your hair looks black to me. What color is it naturally?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

It's dark brown. Although, it's not as dark as I guess I remember it being.

you should make the trip to chicago and let me fix it for you! ;)

I know it's bit far but...

:p

Is that like a serious offer?? Because I'll be there on the 20th. Or if that doesn't work, something early in the morning on the 21st.

[carriemonster.livejournal.com]

yeah man. I am always drummpng up business.
I dont work on Sunday and don't start until Monday afternoon but
seeing as you don't live here we can maybe work something out.

Are you staying with Julee?
She could get you to my salon.

What are you coming here for?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

I thank you for the offer, but my friend seems to have her heart set on coloring my hair. I don't often tell her to do whatever she wants, so I think she's excited to play.

I'm stopping through to see Julee on my way back from seeing White Lion/Enuff Z'Nuff in Detroit. Julee's talking me to see Egostatic.

Can you do burgundy? I think you would look awesome with a mix of blonde and burgandy highlights in your natural color. Nothing drastic, just enough to really make it pop! Hair coloring is fun!

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Yeah, burgundy's fine. I've never really thought of both burgundy & blonde highlights. I'll have to think about it.

I think you should do a brown-scale streaked hair. Dye it dark chocolatey brown with like light brownish honey streaks. Could be cute?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

That would look nice. It already is dark chocolatey brown! That's how I've been describing the color - like Hershey's.
