New Hair!
I’ve been wanting to drastically switch up my hair color for a really long time, now. And this weekend I made a quick trip home to Wisconsin for a family wedding.. and while I was home, I also had the chance to visit one of my best friends, who also happens to be my hairstylist. Trina from Beyond Beautiful Salon answered my hair prayers and transformed me into a redhead! Haha. And I LOVE it.
I will admit, a couple of these photos make my hair look WAY redder than it actually is. And I received a lot of mixed feelings on my hair from family members (and I got to see just about all of them this weekend!). My biggest hair critic is usually my brother, though, and he actually liked my hair change this time.
But don’t worry dear readers, if you are not a fan of the red hair, I can assure you it won’t probably be red for long. Red hair tends to fade pretty quickly. So, I’m sure I’ll only get a few posts with the bright red color. 😉
The Evolution of My Hair Color. Haha!
I was a blonde for about 10 years of my life, and it was a very slow progression to get to the blonde color in the picture above. However, once I met Trina…I got a bit more adventurous in the hair department and switched to a brunette this time last year. And now for the first time in my life, I’ve dyed my hair an “unnatural” color. And it’s fun for me for a change!
But anyways, changing gears a bit, I also wanted to share some photos from the wedding this weekend. My cousin was married in an absolutely gorgeous venue in Wisconsin, and this weekend happened to be peak leaf changing season for the area. It was one of the most beautiful weddings I have ever attended! (And it was so nice to see all my relatives again!)

Thank you so much! 🙂
As a fellow dyed redhead, I;m a bit biased…but it looks amazing! If you want to keep the red and minimize fading, I recommend trying out henna! It’s great because it’s actually good for your hair (coats your hair with a red sheen rather than stripping out color) too!

Thank you so much, Sammi! And thank you for the advice! I will have to check henna out! 🙂
You look stunning with red hair! Wow I think this is ur colour. I can’t wait to see more photos of you with ur new hair colour :-). Sorry I haven’t been by as much lately.. crazy busy! I do miss visiting ur blog and hope all is well:-)
Oh gosh, thank you so much! And totally understandable, Ela! Thank you so much for stopping by and hope all is well with you too. 🙂
I quite dig the red hair! Very pretty.
Thank you, Kristian! 🙂 I really wasn’t sure if many people would like it after my family wasn’t all that impressed haha.
Red heads have the most fun 😉 I love it! Welcome to the club! And yes, sunlight and other forms of light can make one’s hair SO bright. People always think I changed my hair, but it’s just the lighting haha. Cute outfit too! XO

Haha thank you, Lauren! And the lighting really does make a difference! It’s crazy.
You look beautiful as a red head. I can’t wait to see more pics of you with your new hair. Your dress is so pretty too! This looks like it was a lovely wedding in Wisconsin. These fall colors are amazing!

Thank you so much, Joanna! I’m enjoying being a redhead for change. 🙂 And Wisconsin is so beautiful right now, I wish I would’ve had more time to photograph the leaves while I was home (New Jersey hasn’t gotten the memo that it’s fall, yet. Haha.).
Your hair is beautiful and LOVE the dress! If you are speaking of Pullman WA my daughter is there gong to college…she is studying fashion and I miss her so much! Lovely blog!

Thank you so much, Valerie! Pullman, WA is a beautiful area – how exciting that your daughter is studying fashion there! 🙂 The contest (I should’ve mentioned this) is actually for Pullman Hotels & Resorts based out of Australia. I’m trying to win a vacation/blogging opportunity with them. 🙂
I’m a big fan of the hair! But of course that could be because I’m always trying to turn myself in to a redhead. Yea, the fading thing really stinks, but I think you will look good in freshly dyed AND faded red!
I hope you keep up the color! 🙂

Thank you so much, Jen! I love your red hair, and honestly didn’t think it faded much at all. And I’ll have to keep it around for a while…I won’t be seeing my hairdresser again until Thanksgiving time, haha. 🙂
Loved the hair do! Amazing hair color you got there 😀

Aaahhh love the red hair! Dare I say it even seems more like a cool comic book heroine?! Im glad you took the plunge and colored your hair. It definitely suits you. Pretty dress too! The wedding looked lovely.

Aw thank you so much, Amanda! And oh my goodness gracious, cool comic book heroine? I will definitely take that! Haha. Thank you! 🙂
What a lovely hair color and I love the dress even if it is very shocking to see someone wear a white dress to a wedding!

Thank you, Jessica! And you’re right! I didn’t even notice it, but these photos make this dress look white..but it’s actually a kind of weird tan/pink color. So, the bride and I weren’t clashing too much. 🙂
I think your hair looks incredible! Wow! I’ve wanted to go red for a while now, but I DREAD the inevitable fading haha. Also your dress is amazing!

Aw thank you so much! The fading is going to suck, though when it happens. Haha. I’ve been doing everything I can to prolong the color…dry shampoo, washing it in cold water, etc. We’ll see how long it sticks around! 🙂
Beautiful! Love red!
Thank you so much! 🙂
I LOVE the new hair colour!!!!
Aw thank you, Rachel! 🙂
OMG!! I LOVE IT!!! Like seriously I looooooove it!
I want to have that hair colour myself! It’s so pretty and nice. And you look amazing with it!! It suits you sooo much.
I love love love it! I did vote for the red last time you asked, but I must be honest I didn’t think it would look this beautiful. Haha! I looks amazing.
I’m totally sold! Love it! Want it!
Oh and btw, beautiful outfit, you look so classy.
Much love,
Mona
Oh gosh, thank you so much, Mona! You are the first person to show this much excitement for it. Haha! Thank you! 🙂
