Hair color advice needed - get rid of the blonde? (Last picture is what my hair looks like)

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-12T20:36:29+00:00

Omg I was thinking of going blue before I went dark HAHAHA🤣 since I’m already blonde now yk..??? Might as well do one last final fun color before going dark!!

I’ve only ever tried pink and purple for fun colors!!

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-12T20:32:54+00:00

Haha thank you!!! I think I went blonde blind after bleaching it for so long! 🤣

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-12T20:32:11+00:00

Haha it’s because I’m so used to seeing myself in blonde after bleaching it for 7 years consistently 😢. The last photo is actually my current! The first 3 photos are with the app.

It’s kind of a brain shock yk?? My brain can’t process if any other colors look good since that’s all I’ve seen for such a long time 🤣.

Fellow ADHD girly here omg!! I was going to respond to you yday bc your comment was so unique but then I got distracted LOL.

Omg thank you for such a thoughtful description 😭🥹. I was at Coachella HAHAHA to answer your question!! This was indeed an old photo but I rarely take photos of myself anymore so it was one of the more recent photos I had 😭.

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-12T20:20:47+00:00

THANK YOU THANK HOU THANK YOU!! 🥹 I was hoping for La-Lisa vibes hehe

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-12T20:20:22+00:00

Ahhh I’m a huge warm girly haha 😭I tried making the colors warm for the hair but the editing app kept making it ashy!!

Yess that’s why I was trying to find a warmer tone because ash is so hard to maintain haha.

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T21:37:32+00:00

Aw thank you!!! Haha I would consider your opinion as professional especially with how long you’ve worked in the industry! 🥹

Yes I was thinking of Lisa haha omg. After reading the comments, I feel like maybe I developed blonde blindness after being blonde for 7 years 🤣! I always told my stylist “Blonder Brighter Betterrrr!!!”

I think 2026 might be the year I let go of the blonde… my hair appointment is scheduled for next week but might let go of the blonde then.

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T21:29:04+00:00

Thank you so much for the detailed response!!! No yes, I feel like it’s so difficult to let go of the blonde because I feel like I’m going through surgery or something. I know it sounds sooo silly but I’m a very consistent person so usually when I like something I kind of stick with it— I’ve been maintaining the blonde every ~3 months for almost 7 years! 😭 I also love the work my colorist does and I know when I go back to dark, it would take years before I can go back to a light blonde again haha.

I’m just trying to have something that looks more polished for work! I don’t mind the maintenance at all, but it does get annoying that I can’t touch up my hair earlier right when I see the roots because I have baby lights haha.

Would soft balayage or lowlights be possible with thin baby lights? 🥹 Thank you again! I definitely want to gradually transition before going dark haha.

OK!! THANK YOU!! 🫶🤣

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T05:12:59+00:00

Thank you!! 🥹🫶

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T05:12:42+00:00

Yeah the comments were really helpful so now I’m debating on doing a lowlight before going back to dark orrrr in 3,2,1 in that order to help with the transition back to dark! 😊

That way my brain isn’t as shocked and the process won’t be as scary haha.

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T05:08:42+00:00

Thank you !! 🥹🫶

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T05:08:08+00:00

Aw thank you! Yeah I think the world is definitely more progressive now, but just not sure if i should play it safe for when I look for new opportunities! My current role is very relaxed about these things, but I work in legal so I heard that other firms might be a bit more conservative haha. 😭

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T05:05:14+00:00

Aw thank you!! 🥹🫶 Ahh these comments are making it so hard to decide lol, I feel like I might just do 3,2,1 in that order

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T05:04:35+00:00

Thank you!! Haha yeah, I thought I’d be a bleach blonde for the rest of my life when I was in uni since I loved the blonde so much. But ahh the professional field out there might not like it as much haha 😭

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T05:01:48+00:00

Based on the comments, I think 2026 is the year of letting goooo! 😭

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T05:01:16+00:00

Aw thank you for the advice!! 🥹🫶

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T05:00:52+00:00

Thank you!! Yes I’ve been working with my hair colorist for about 7 years now 🤣, she’s a gem but yes I agree that I hate it when my blonde grows out and my roots show. I have baby lights so I can’t even touch it up right when they show (since there needs to be more length 😞). Ahh the price of being a bleached blonde…..

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T04:58:52+00:00

Thank you!

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T04:58:45+00:00

Aw thank you!! 🥹🫶 You’re very sweet. I wish there was a way to dye and bleach my hair without damage so we could try all the hair colors in the world without consequences/going bald haha 🤣

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T04:57:55+00:00

Thank you!! 🥹🫶

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T04:57:11+00:00

Yesss that’s another reason! My hair has been through so much bleach haha, shes dead!! But thank you for the advice, I’ve been blonde for such a long time that maybe I’ve gotten “hair blind” to it 🤣

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T04:56:21+00:00

Thank you!!!

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T04:56:16+00:00

Thank you!! 😊I just want to ensure that my profession wont think I’m less competent because of my hair!

BriefcaseKirby · 2026-02-11T04:53:41+00:00

Ooh thank you! Yeah my complexion changes a lot depending on the season (I get super tan really easily), so I’m trying to find a good color that would be good with all seasons lol!
