Are Redheads Better?

[jaguar]

nothing like a red bush, and light skin, and sometimes the freckles

er...i'll be back in a bit...

You are not a redhead if you dyed your hair; sorry.

I can't believe this thread is still going. Good for it.

I think bottle red-heads DO count. Red is red, baby.

I was red when I started this thread--now, i'm more of an auburn with blonde bangs. I miss the red, though.

My son is a red head with freckles and blue eyes and he is quite the ladies man.

Why did I bother to answer that?

[KinkyVixen]

I dunno. Why did you? Did you think you were just wasting your breath? I don't know very many red-heads...I just know about the stigma that follows. Teach me!

Welcome amelia!

As seen in the RFN thread a while back, I've experimented with red before, it's fun...my natural hair is brownish redish blondish, but sometimes looks black in low light. It's got alot of red throughout it naturally, and both times that I've dyed it red were more about changes in my life which I marked by changing my appearance...sort of like a temporary tatoo I guess.

(I soooo want to do it pink, or at least red with pink hilites but I'm a chicken)

I did a nice dark fuschia for a short time in college, Razz. From the pictures you've posted, I think it would work well with your complexion. Sticking with the darker pinks is the key though. But would your job object?

[Razzmatazz13]

That's the part I worry about actually, I know we've got tons of people with tattoos, face piercings are supposed to be taken out during work hours, but I'm not sure of the policy on hair color...hmm...

You can rest assured that the moment I'm back in college, I'll be doing some kind of pink for certain.

[Aliantha]

Don't you work in a hardware store? Surely they're not that strict. Do you think they'd object to all the colours I have in my hair if I worked there? I have pink.

[Razzmatazz13]

Another thing to consider is customer reaction...whether or not I'm willing to hear the same comment about it 50 times a day...not because I'll be upset if they don't like it...but because it gets hard to give that fake customer service grin and laugh at whatever I'm going to hear 50 people a day say about it.

FYI old men hate black or blue nailpolish...but they loooove the glitter

[SteveDallas]

I must not be old enough.. I don't want to see glitter anywhere except the school art projects of < 8yo kids. (I could do without the black nail polish... blue might be OK depending on the shade etc.)

(P.S. Get the hell off of my yard.)

Razz, I think you should do some of it dark pink. It would look great on you! I can relate to the changing haircolor coinciding with a new phase of something. I do the same thing. I dyed mine all different colors until about 5 years ago, when I started dying it black all the time. I have finally grown most of the black out and cut it short. Trying to decide if I should dye it aqua/greenish blue? I am thinking it might freak out some of the yuppy parents around here, which would be an added bonus. Perhaps we could have a hair dye thread?

[jester]

Mmmm, didn't know this one existed. Very nice. I didn't like my hair color for a very long time, because it was so different than most other people I went to school with. But, oh well, it's great now. I have never colored it - so would be scared it would turn some God awful color.

[Sundae]

Razz - get you some bright pink highlights girl, would look amazing. And out some glitter as low down as your uniform goes breast wise. The old men won't worry bout your hair.

And Case - go for it! If I had the complexion I'd totally go for far out colour.
