I've received requests to change staff pics on our website which made me consider altering my own image since my hair isn't red anymore. That conversation led to another person asking me what is my natural hair color. Though there is a lot more silver to it, my hairdresser can attest to the natural auburn color since she regularly drowns it in ash to prevent the red tones from shining through. Hubby doesn't care for the current darker color, but Becky has informed me that she has a preference for me as a brunette.
Then there are the comments concerning the cut. Someone told me they were concerned because my face looked emaciated and too thin. Considering my weight has remained steady, I would assume it has something to do with my hair being a bit longer than usual. Of course, someone mentioned that I couldn't cut my hair too short because my long neck makes me look like a giraffe. Seriously, why do I talk to people?
So I decided to share the many alterations my hair has undergone over the years since I'm contemplating whether I should make another change. I have kept the same look since moving up north and though I've altered the color and length a bit, I've remained consistent in the overall style. So here are some images from the past. And yes, I've decided to be daring and post older pics like Becky does on her blog. For those who read via a reader, you may not be able to see all these images without the full browser mode.
1992 - Sun-streaked hair from the summer. With the teased front and sides. How could we ever have thought this looked good?
1994 - I have naturally wavy hair that tends to curl. This was actually a good look though it becomes big in the humidity.

| 2000 - I decided to shed everything including my hair so I had it all cut-off and wore this look until 2002. I tried variant colors but the warm brunette was best. |
| 2003 - I had variant shades of blond for a while. I grew my hair until I tired of it and hacked it off again. |
| 2006 - I chopped my hair to my chin and went dark. I kept the dark color for a while, but eventually had the color stripped out while I grew my hair to the longest I ever had it as an adult. |

I liked it better dark with the red showing through. Please, not blond anymore!! The pixie was cute -- but I don't know if it's right for you now.

Stay dark! You can pull off any hairstyle but my favorite is the mid-length curly look.

DON'T DO BLONDE! I didn't even recognize you and then when I figured it out, I thought it made you look so much older. I have always loved red coming through. I was a redhead for a while. :)
PS, as a sufferer of straight, flat hair, I love the big curly hair. :)
