My hair history...

I fancied doing something a bit different today and thought it would be quite fun to share my hair history. I have been so many different colours and I've liked all of them to be honest! 
WARNING.. There might be some shameful photos of me so prepare yourself!

So let's start..


This is my natural hair colour completely, this was taken when I was about 16 I think. Yes, I am a natural blonde and if you saw my roots you'd believe me! It was really short after having it cut off due to heat damage, boo!
I then decided I wanted to go for a dramatic change! 


Boom! Bright red, I literally don't know what came over me, I'd been through a tough year and think I just wanted to make a statement! As you can see, this was the first time I'd dyed my hair and I made a really rubbish job of it, it looks like I've got highlights but that's actually just where I had missed, ha!


 Cringe at the posey photos ha! 
Anyway, I then got my mum to dye my whole head of hair properly and it was super bright red! I absolutely loved my hair this bright but it was so hard to maintain, I was dying my hair every other week to keep it this bright. Slowly getting longer and longer! This was probably a year on from the first photo!


I then went for a darker red for the winter, I also really loved it this colour and kept it this colour for like twoish years. It was a lot easier to maintain and I didn't dye it nearly as much and my hair gre so so quickly as you can see from the last two photos. 

 This was about a year or two later and just wanted to show how bright it still was! Gawwwwddd this is making me wanna go back red! 


I then fancied a change and my housemate persuaded me to try a dark brown semi colour which as you can see had hardly any effect at all.


I then went a really deep chocolatey brown which was one of my favourite hair colours, although it was dark brown it still had a lovely hint of red but unfortunately that was hard to keep.

I then went even darker and went for a really really deep brown, it looks almost black in this photo but it wasn't. I kept this for about a year but wanted something lighter for the following summer.

I then got my housemate to give me highlights (which she did an amazing job with) just to lighten up my hair and give me more of a summer kissed look. At this point I was debating between having highlights or having it ombre!

I then wanted to go darker again for winter and went for a deep plumy brown which looked really healthy! This is from my 20th birthday night out with my lovely boyfriend!

A few months later I couldn't control my urge for ombre anymore and just got a subtle hint of blonde on my tips.

Then I went blonder and loved it! I kept it this colour for a long time but eventually my ends got a bit dry and I went dark again.
As I was really happy with the colour and ombre for a while I decided to change my side fringe and got a full fringe cut in. I really lovely my full fringe but as soon as it got a little long, it drove me insane so to be honest it didn't last that long. 

Cringe! 
I then just went dark again and got rid of my full fringe and ombre which I stayed for a while but now it's summer I wanted to lighten up my hair again. 



I then got my mum to give me a few highlights which I really love! I've had so many compliments on my hair lately and I'm really happy with it at the moment so will be sticking with it for a while! I love going for a tanned sun kissed look in the summer! 

I would love to hear your thoughts!

  1. Woah you look so different with blonde hair, i actually can't really remember you with blonde hair! I think how you have it now really suits you and looks better than your natural (maybe i'm just used to seeing you with it). I'd love to suit dark browns as i'm bored of blonde but i don't :(
