My hair is really a dull steel gray, with some pure white at the temples. I dye it the same mahogany/reddish brown it was in my late 20's and early 30's.

Knot, i never would have guessed that your hair and mine are the same color (sans dye that is!)
My hair is naturally a very ashen brown... was 'dirty blonde' when I was a kid... used to go red when I bleached it, but it doesn't seem to feel like it anymore. So I force the issue with Henna. :rolleyes:
Much of my 'real' hair color is actually quite white (premature, of course). But for the public it is a medium brown. But I leave a white streak on the top right side. My right, not yours.
My hair is the original colour. Brown with gold, red, dark brown, and other naturally occuring shades thrown in. I am not fond of it, but I refuse to dye it myself. I tried that once and it went horribly wrong. :o :eek: :o
I wouldn't dye your hair either sounds cool Jen.
I was originally light blonde, then I went red for 20 years.
Now I'm natural again, and i love it. It's a medium ash blonde with lots of silver streaked in everywhere. I love the way the silver glitters in the sun!
I once used a natural henna from the health food store, figurde I'd get a nice "natural" look. I must have done something wrong though, because I wound up looking like a carrot on fire. :eek: :eek: :eek: I felt like Ronald MacDonald. :eek: I had to cover my head and rush to the drugstore to find an emergency coverup dye! :D :eek: :D
:eek: There's something wrong with the Atomic Carrot look?
naturally i'm redish-brown.
though i do have some fond memories of some manic panic pink. :eek:
making Jambalaya. A fine traditional Irish meal for St. Paddy's Day. :D
Uh oh. I didn't wear any green. Good thing nobody here knows about pinching. And as for a traditional Irish meal ... I had lamb khorma, peshawari nan, and an Indian lemonade that I don't remember the name of (basically like US-style lemonade, with the addition of a pinch of salt).
Well, one of us is trying to keep tradition - I'm making Irish Stew or sorts. With beef instead of lamb, lots of taters, carrots and parsnips, and a can of Guinness. It smells wonderfull in the kitchen right now.:cool:
I used to do kind of an auburn color, with blond streaks. One streaking session I over did the bleach, and ended up with Billy Idol white hair all over. So, I run to the store, buy a box of red, thinking it will tone everything down. Uh huh. Can you say "Lucy, I'm home!":eek: Ran back to the store and got a box of light brown - the end result was quite nice. I'm so glad my hair survived!
Now I'm a light to medium brown, depending on which box I pick :rolleyes: . I do have a bottle of Red mousse stuff I keep meaning to try. I thought maybe I'd streak my bangs with it.
Help! I'm stupid!!
Today on Garrison Keillor's Prarie Home Companion there was this wonderful guitar instrumental that I think was called "Lucky Thirteen" played (maybe) by Jen Larson. I can't find a downloadable version anywhere! AAAAG!
How do I find this? I went thru the NPR and Prarie websites and thru iTunes, but had no luck.
