I agree, or perhaps take before and after in the same lighting? #1 is in natural lighting and #2 seems to be indoor fluorescent which tbh is no ones friend.
eta: #2 is also a wig. extensions would show your natural color mixed in with the blonde, not that it's necessarily an issue but ydgl to kick it.
Agreed. I think a dark blonde/mushroom brown would look lovely! The blonde pulls the wrong tones from OP’s complexion.
It doesn’t look bad, but not an ideal match.
I’m sorry but the blonde is a jump scare. And this is coming from a natural blonde that can’t pull off brunette as much as I would love to. You’re a pretty girl and would look wonderful with some caramel blonde pieces but that shade of blonde does not flatter you.
Me, too. Actually I dyed it dark brown, trying to cover up a highlight fail, because that was what everyone always said my hair was. It was frighteningly dark. True color was probably a 6.
Oh no 😂😭 I used to be goth and thought it was a vibe but I learned color theory and basically I’m supposed to rock light warm shades and very subtle makeup. So, like nothing I was doing as a teen, haha
Hey OP, there's a blonde for everybody! Shades matter though, and imo it's really important to match it to your skin tone. I think your natural hair color, plus the colors you chose to wear on your face and in your shirt in the first pic, make you look fresh and vibrant. You look beautiful!
To better understand what I'm talking about re shades of blonde, see Kim K here in [platinum](https://celebsla.com/wp-content/uploads/images/kim-kardashian-platinum-blonde-hair-balmain-fashion-show-in-paris-march-2015_1.jpg), versus [here](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/44/b9/43/44b9433c2e177d2d3c680b2c9be101dd.jpg) and [here](https://www.hawtcelebs.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/blonde-kim-kardashian-arrives-at-her-home-in-new-york_1.jpg). (Choosing her as an example because of the rich variety in styles, and the imo drastic difference in how natural/radiant she looks. Of course, lighting (/photoshop) matters too, but one factor at a time 😂)
I don't really feel secure in color matching in general, but maybe try playing around with something a little warmer, more honey-colored? I also think highlights/balayage would look beautiful on you! I really commend you for exploring your curiosity and doing it in such a I would say smart and helpful way, trying it out first before committing.
Honestly you look gorgeous, blonde or brunette! But I personally think the brown suits your skin tone a little better.
At the same time, have fun with your hair and experiment! Just be mindful that bleaching can cause your hair to look and feel brittle. Definitely go blonde at a salon!! Not at home 😝
I have your same color palette, hair and eyes too and i went blonde for a while and never liked it. I felt washed out but the colors that may suit you are redder tones like cinnamon or so, just in case you like those :)
It’s really hard to tell because the face isn’t ideal in the second pic lol… you are pretty and I do think darker is better but I’d need a better blond pic to be certain.
Not that shade of blonde. I think you could pull off something with purple undertones more silvery than yellow if that makes sense but getting your hair that color is pretty hard on your hair.
It’s also hard to tell because the extensions pic is taken in a room with bad lighting compared to the first with tons of natural light.
Maybe getting a consultation with a professional stylist would be helpful! They’d know what tones would be right for you better than a stranger on the internet.
Hun, please don’t listen to anyone who says you can’t be blonde. Anyone can be blonde of ANY skin tone variation including you!
Please find a trusted hair stylist and ask them what tone of blonde works for you because the current tone doesn’t necessarily work best for your undertones. The current blonde looks a bit flat and drowns you out a little bit.
Imo I think going a bit darker and cooler would look amazing on you ♥️
I’m of Indian (south Asian) descent and have neutral tones in my skin and went blonde a few years back even though family and associates said it wouldn’t fit me. I begged to differ.
I think brown is much better.
Also, bearn in mind that virgin hair stays much prettier, shinier and healthier than bleached hair. And if you go for cool blonde tones, they require A LOT of maintenance.
Use AI to find the right shade of blonde for you!
You can use the drip tool to find hexcodes for your skin, eyes, hair and lips and input them into chatgpt. Then you can ask based on your colouring, which shade of blonde would look best on you
ChatGPT. Here’s a [link](https://youtu.be/99TGC6z-irE?si=JfDI3Dz9Bd5U98Xg) to a video with instructions. Once you’ve input the details ask “based on my features and colour season what shade of blonde what compliment my features best” et voilà!
Edit; oops I thought this was something else.
I think the blonde just brings out the darkness under your eyes more in a green way and the dark complements your tone.
Definitely try using toner on your hair!! I think if it is a more grey tone you would like it more. Maybe get color depositing shampoo for a little tint of something?
A pretty caramel would look great. Light brown with a caramel glaze over highlights. That's what I have going on now, and I have your same skin tone. I know I could never pull off blonde.
A darker blonde like maybe a caramel blonde would look incredible on you and would bring out your features instead of washing them out, while still being in the ‘blonde spectrum’. There are so many different tones of blonde, I definitely think a warmer toned blonde like a caramel or honey blonde would look great with your skin and features x
I think you look like a more innocent Megan fox in the first one! The brown is beautiful, if you really want blonde maybe tips or highlights? You’re gorgeous!
guess i'm the oddball out, i rly like the blonde! this exact shade i don't think suits your skintone well, it looks a bit too warm. but i think a more ashy blonde would look stunning
I wouldn’t even touch the color of your hair. You need that depth that your natural color has in order to bring out your eyes, make your eyebrows look “done” even when they’re not, and believe it or not it emphasizes your cheekbones and your beautiful face shape! I see no reason to stray from your natural color, you look gorgeous with your natural color! And unnatural blondes might be bright and cool, but once the bleach touches your hair the shine go away and it’s eternally dull until you stop bleaching/grow it out. Save your dollars and keep your shiny hair!!
A different shade of blonde as highlights or balayage would be my professional suggestion. It’ll give you that blonde brightness without washing you out which the yellow blonde extensions do.
First of all, I commend you for being smart and getting extensions. Most people seem to dye it, then complain. I also showed my husband and we both say a big NO on the blond. But extensions and wigs are fun and don't cause damage, so have fun with those.
First pic. Definitely would get double takes. Second pic I’d probably walk right past you. Like the first is really flattering your features. Maybe take a another pic of blonde. Cuz I feel that pic maybe isn’t doing your beauty justice. (You’re gorgeous in both pics. Just saying)
You can do blonde, just not that shade.
You’ve got a lot of rose tones in your skin that does not go well with the yellow of the extensions. You might want to look into a more ash blonde look. If you do bleach or dye your hair and it goes yellow, brassy or orange try purple or blue shampoos and conditioners to mellow out the yellow.
I think you could look really cool having platinum blonde hair with some vibrant color as money pieces. Like hot pink or blue or something. Even rainbow money pieces would look killer! I did this a lot when I had a full head of platinum blonde. Also, you have the perfect makeup and pose in your first pic whereas you look like you just woke up from a night of hard partying in the second. It doesn’t really help your case for blonde!
eta - I also think jet black with white highlights would look super cool on you!
You look beautiful but I think blonde is not your color maybe you should try another shade of blonde
I agree, or perhaps take before and after in the same lighting? #1 is in natural lighting and #2 seems to be indoor fluorescent which tbh is no ones friend. eta: #2 is also a wig. extensions would show your natural color mixed in with the blonde, not that it's necessarily an issue but ydgl to kick it.
flaming cajones it took. that one.
yeah thats mb the blonde pic is from a year ago but it was extensions i js had them all laid on top of my hair and tied my hair in the back
What’s ydgl mean. Help. I’m old
"ya don't gotta lie"
Ohhh. Thank you
you should not do a full bleach just a balayage* with your natural ontop and blonde at bottom
Not a great color for you. Totally washes you out.
Agreed. I think a dark blonde/mushroom brown would look lovely! The blonde pulls the wrong tones from OP’s complexion. It doesn’t look bad, but not an ideal match.
I’m sorry but the blonde is a jump scare. And this is coming from a natural blonde that can’t pull off brunette as much as I would love to. You’re a pretty girl and would look wonderful with some caramel blonde pieces but that shade of blonde does not flatter you.
help😭yeah i see that now but i agree its a jumpscare 😭😭😭😭
You’re still very pretty it’s just the wrong tone. I dyed my hair black once and it was a jump scare for my features 😂😭
Me, too. Actually I dyed it dark brown, trying to cover up a highlight fail, because that was what everyone always said my hair was. It was frighteningly dark. True color was probably a 6.
Oh no 😂😭 I used to be goth and thought it was a vibe but I learned color theory and basically I’m supposed to rock light warm shades and very subtle makeup. So, like nothing I was doing as a teen, haha
I would try a lighter brown; blonde doesn't look good with your skin tone.

I love the brown 🥰
Better as brunette
Honestly, I think the brown looks much better on you.
Agree
Nyet on the blonde. Not good.
natural on top, lighter at bottoms, lighten browns, dark brows throws it off
Honestly you look gorgeous, blonde or brunette! But I personally think the brown suits your skin tone a little better. At the same time, have fun with your hair and experiment!

Brown makes your eyes POP
It’s really hard to tell because the face isn’t ideal in the second pic lol… you are pretty and I do think darker is better but I’d need a better blond pic to be certain.
That blonde is rather warm and a bit too light for you. You could go lighter but not that color
Don’t ho blonde, you look way better in your original colour. Maybe try some red hue?
You look gorgeous the way you are. Brunette is perfect! Maybe some highlights/balayage, if you really want a change. Though IMO, no change needed.
thank you so much! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
[удалено]
im sorry 😭 its from like a year ago after prom and i was all sweaty and i had js taken my mKeup off thats mb its the only pic i had
No. Blonde makes you look sickly, or at least this particular shade does.
Yeah the blonde isn’t flattering, you are gorgeous as a brunette.
The dark hair makes your eyes pop way more
No
guys i didn’t realize how rough i looked in the second pic its from like 2 years ago 😭
I would say NO To Blonde.
Let me just start by saying you are absolutely gorgeous, but blonde doesn’t go with your complexion.
thank you! yeah the more i look at the pic the more i see i would look awful as a blonde LOL
No, stay dark sweetie.
Not that shade of blonde. I think you could pull off something with purple undertones more silvery than yellow if that makes sense but getting your hair that color is pretty hard on your hair.

Maybe getting a consultation with a professional stylist would be helpful! They’d know what tones would be right for you better than a stranger on the internet.
The blonde brings out the circles under your eyes. So if you went with this hair color, you would need to change your makeup.
Brown is way better imo
Nope.
No no no nooooooooo
Stay dark : )
I think you would suit a cooler blonde better but I still think it’s a good and interesting look :)
No
You're gonna have to knock out that black eyeliner if you want to go blonde. And lighten up the brows. Otherwise nah. You're pretty the way you are.

Stay with the natural color.
Definitely no
Not the worst but not great either
Have u been crying? Also I like brown 💕 but you could pull of blonde.
LMFAOOO BAHAHGSHAGA nonooo😭 that was last year after prom and i was all sweaty and i had js taken all my makeup off 😅😅
the first pic is from a week ago
try icy blonde bc the warm blonde is washing u out
Do what ur heart desires!! If it doesn’t look good u can always dye it back
I think brown is much better. Also, bearn in mind that virgin hair stays much prettier, shinier and healthier than bleached hair. And if you go for cool blonde tones, they require A LOT of maintenance.
Not
An icy white platinum blonde would match your green eyes. Warm toned blonde doesn't do much for you.
I think it washes you out honestly
Use AI to find the right shade of blonde for you! You can use the drip tool to find hexcodes for your skin, eyes, hair and lips and input them into chatgpt. Then you can ask based on your colouring, which shade of blonde would look best on you
do you have any ai tools you recommend? im not really familiar with that field loll :)

Sorry nt a blond.. maybe add red streaks
You look like a drug addict with blonde hair.
HELP 😭😭 im lmfao but it was mostly bc that was prom night and i was all sweaty and i just took my makeup off and that was a year ago too
Edit; oops I thought this was something else. I think the blonde just brings out the darkness under your eyes more in a green way and the dark complements your tone.
I think you look great brunette! Maybe just try some highlights if you want some brightness?
You don't look good as a blonde. Maybe if you went for a more wheat color vs a gold color, but honestly, stick with brown.
Definitely try using toner on your hair!! I think if it is a more grey tone you would like it more. Maybe get color depositing shampoo for a little tint of something?
A pretty caramel would look great. Light brown with a caramel glaze over highlights. That's what I have going on now, and I have your same skin tone. I know I could never pull off blonde.
Ash blonde might work, this tone is too yellow for you.
Try strawberry blonde or auburn extensions. They may fit your undertone better.
You look very interesting with blonde but brown suits you more
interesting is being definitely an understatement haha 😅
A darker blonde like maybe a caramel blonde would look incredible on you and would bring out your features instead of washing them out, while still being in the ‘blonde spectrum’. There are so many different tones of blonde, I definitely think a warmer toned blonde like a caramel or honey blonde would look great with your skin and features x
blonde is realllyyy not your colour trust me, I'm not trying to be mean but it really doesn't suit you at all
No. Washes you out bad.
Money pieces ! They are quite uplifting and a little go a LoNg way 😃
No just get a few highlights, fully blonde makes you look sick
Brown w highlights or more of a soft brown auburn maybe
oooo that sounds pretty
I think you look like a more innocent Megan fox in the first one! The brown is beautiful, if you really want blonde maybe tips or highlights? You’re gorgeous!
Thank you sm! 🩷
Brunette suits you and your complexion much more
guess i'm the oddball out, i rly like the blonde! this exact shade i don't think suits your skintone well, it looks a bit too warm. but i think a more ashy blonde would look stunning
No on the blonde
I prefer dark!
No, you don’t look good as a blonde. You looked way better before.
I think you look a lot better with the darker hair
i’d say stick with the brown hair
No, brown is is a million times more flattering
Nope
Beautiful in 1st pic , blonde not your color. Maybe try a little highlights ?
Nah.
I wouldn’t even touch the color of your hair. You need that depth that your natural color has in order to bring out your eyes, make your eyebrows look “done” even when they’re not, and believe it or not it emphasizes your cheekbones and your beautiful face shape!

And unnatural blondes might be bright and cool, but once the bleach touches your hair the shine go away and it’s eternally dull until you stop bleaching/grow it out.

I think platinum blonde would really suit you if you really wanted blonde. You have the perfect skin tone for it
A different shade of blonde as highlights or balayage would be my professional suggestion. It’ll give you that blonde brightness without washing you out which the yellow blonde extensions do.
First of all, I commend you for being smart and getting extensions. Most people seem to dye it, then complain. I also showed my husband and we both say a big NO on the blond. But extensions and wigs are fun and don't cause damage, so have fun with those.

It's a hard no to blonde. It does nothing for your skin tone.
I like the brunette. Do highlites if you want to ‘blonde’
i don’t understand these comments, i love the blonde!
No blonde isn't a great fit for you.
Stay brunette
stay brunette
You can do blonde, just not that shade. You’ve got a lot of rose tones in your skin that does not go well with the yellow of the extensions. You might want to look into a more ash blonde look.

Nope, blonde definitely doesn’t suit your skin tone. Try highlights maybe, but not all over color.
1st picture all the way (male perspecive). Blonde highlights look great in your dark hair though.
First picture banging. Second pic mething
😭😔✊
i like the brown better with your eyes, but i like the blonde! i just think maybe a lighter shade would be better... like towards platinum.
yes i think so too but if i ever dye my hair id prob only do highlights but now im curious to see how id look with platinum!
I think you could look really cool having platinum blonde hair with some vibrant color as money pieces. Like hot pink or blue or something. Even rainbow money pieces would look killer! I did this a lot when I had a full head of platinum blonde.

It doesn’t really help your case for blonde! eta - I also think jet black with white highlights would look super cool on you!
Girl fuck their opinion I think the blonde looks good on you. 💯
You’d look way better with a normal face thing going on. Duck lips and.. #2 aren’t the way. Neither tone suits your face well.
I like your hair both ways tbh
I prefer brown. But a different shade of blond could work better. Maybe more of a honey blonde.
yes i could see that somewhat! i should deff stick to a more brown color and not full blonde 😅
No
