Let's talk about hair...

I haven't coloured my hair since high school.  For a number of reasons, perhaps the largest being (as we've established) I'm CHEAP.  And anyone who keeps up with colouring their hair knows that it's not a cheap commitment.  Another big reason is that I enjoy being au naturel - it's more and more of a rarity.  Plus I don't have any grey yet, so I'm holding out...  The other big reason is that my high school experience wasn't great.  This pic is floating around Facebook as a reminder...



Oh, high school.  It's not awful, I know.  But not "me".  My hair already has natural highlights, especially in the summer...


But the trend lately is appealing to me.  I'm loving the way these highlights are done - subtle, not "streaks", and more ombre style.  I'm seriously considering giving it a go.  Because, really, these styles answer all of my above reasons (I think!).  Low maintenance - I can let it grow out if I want and not have crazy roots to deal with/pay to keep covering up.  Looks very subtle/natural.  And not over bleached blonde streaks :)  Who knows, I might just make the plunge...
