What I did on Saturday...


A little different, huh? :)

Thanks so much for so many of your kind words on twitter! I've wanted to go brown for awhile, would do lowlights...and feel unsatisfied. I wanted to go big or go home, I guess..haha... :)

Still figuring out the makeup thing-how much, need different colors?,enough bronzer, etc- (any random tips appreciated) and have been applying self tanner like a madwoman, but I really do dig it. I walk in front of mirrors and think "HOLY SH*T! IT'S SO DARK!*deep breath*....Okay.. it's dark... but I like it... yeah.... *make random faces at self in mirror and turn head back and forth* Yeah... I like it. Okay.. phew..." Seriously, every time I go to the bathroom, that process repeats itself... haha...

I'll prolly go back to blonde after awhile b/c I like being blonde. But, I also like having a change for now. :)

Hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend!

It looks great! I totally understand the bathroom mirror thing. I was blonde for 8 years and went dark a year ago, and it took awhile for me to get used to it. But now I can't imagine being blonde again!

I've always wanted to go dark like that!

Your little picture popped up on my blog roll and I thought to myself, "No way that's Jax...OH MY GOD!!! IT IS JAX!" Ha. Looks GREAT! You've definitely got the complexion for both colors. I went brunette a few years ago and it was horrid. You, however, look fabulous!

And thank you, so much, for your kind words of encouragement and ranting the other day. :) I wanted to email you back, but I accidentally deleted the email on my iPhone...and I've yet to figure out what happens to emails when you delete them on the iPhone.

I love the Dark on you. I just went dark like about 3 weeks ago. =)

Kerr said...

It looks great!! My hair was never really blonde but I had gotten out of control with the highlights and went back to my natural dark brown earlier this year and it took some getting used to. I would do the same thing in the mirror and also became obsessed with self tanner!

It looks great! I love having dark hair... hopefully you will, too! I don't wear any particular makeup. I'm just pale but some days I just add blush or bronzer... :)

Kelly said...

It looks great! I did the same thing - went from being like platinum blonde to brown & now I'm trying to go back blonde...it's so hard!

you look so cute no matter what. i don't even know you, but you look more like your mom now, from pics i've seen.

Lauren said...

LOVE IT!! Yay for taking the plunge!! When I went brunette for a year, I went a little darker than yours, and I'm more pale than you, but I noticed the one thing I really needed to do makeup-wise was pay more attention to my eyes and putting on a bit more makeup (eyeliner and mascara) than I usually did when blonde.

Leslie @ A Blonde Ambition said...

You look great, girl! You can seriously wear dark or light hair- it looks fabulous both ways! Such a fun change for spring!

Simply Me said...

holy moly! You look amazing and so different all rolled into one! I LOVE IT!!! :) I wish I could go blonde more easily then I can, I think I have to get super tan again before I can go light. We will see and it will of course be after the bambino but thanks for the inspiration love!
