Hair dilemma

[triskellian]

I have a hairdressing appointment this afternoon. It needs cutting anyway, and I'm probably going to get it dyed, too. The original intention was to go back to scarlet, but I'm surprised to find that I rather like my current approximately-natural dark brown, even though I've spent the last ten years avoiding it, and only returned to it because my wedding dress was red and I was worried about clashing. But I also remember how much I loved having scarlet hair. And having just given people a reason to accuse me of being sensible and grownup, I like the idea of proving that I'm not ;-)

Disclaimer: I make no promise to abide by the results of the poll ;-) Especially if you all start saying things like "Other: green".

ETA: I should state that I don't need to have sensible-coloured hair for work purposes. In case that wasn't already obvious ;-)

Heh. I'd love to have it braided, but it'd be about three times as expensive as getting it dyed*, and it'd take about a million hours**, and I'd rather not spend either the time or the money at the moment :-(

But, hey! At least someone agrees with me about the red being cool. And, oh! Six things now!

*Not an exaggeration
**An exaggeration ;-)

I'd love to have it braided, but ... a million hours**

I had my hair braided for a while, pre-dreads. It took them about four hours (but I had way more hair then than you do now). It cost me about £40, but that was in a fantastic little place up in Sheffield called "Hair By Christmas". They were rubbish at doing stuff quickly, but it was the only hair-dressers I've ever been in that had a thoroughly relaxed atmos.
