the new me~!


Hello once again my friends ~  Sofie and I are enjoying our time together ~ what a sweety she is ;-)

Can I be honest about something?  For some time now, I have been thinking of changing hair colour ~  I have been blonde all my life (my natural colour is a dirty blonde ~ now with a lttle touch of grey as they say, but I've been helping it along...... you know~)



So I asked Mr. Vintage what he thought about changing my hair colour ~ He raised one eyebrow and asked "What colour do you wish to change to?".  I told him I didn't know, but, I needed a change ~


My mother had dark hair and blue eyes.  She was very beautiful.  When people see my mother's picture, they say "Oh my you are the spitting image of your mom".  Well,  Off to the salon I went ~

AND here I am today ~




Well, I have to tell you ~ I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it~! Mr. Vintage loves it too ~ He told me I looked much younger.  Sigh ~ I love that man ~

What do you think?

(((Hugs)))

  6. Oh my goodness, I wouldn't know you! I love it Maryann. What a difference the colour and cut makes! Some days I wish I could get the nerve to dye my hair again but the whole root touch up thing every 4 weeks is just too much bother and expense. I did get it cut shorter recently so that's a change. :) You look great!! Hugs, Pam

  8. It's so cute, if I had seen your picture without your name, I don't think I would have known it was you...I've also been thinking of a change, I have no idea what I'll do until it happens. (I'm kind of a chicken). I think the darker color on you, makes your eyes POP!!! Big hugs, Debbie @ Cottage Hann~Me~Downs

  11. What a change, but you look great! And dosen't it feel good! I am a "dirty blonde" too. After my hairdresser retired my new one said I needed to just enhance the real color and shorten it, I did and it felt like a new person!
    Welcome the new you, pretty new you!

  19. You look great! That's probably my natural hair color but a few years ago I let it go gray since I'd been coloring the gray since I was 30! Enough was enough! Those panels in my trailer were very easy to do. I measured the opening then I cut a heavy piece of cardboard. I covered the cardboard with the fabric, glued it with a glue gone (on the back), then slipped it in place. It's stuck in there pretty tight so I don't think it's going anywhere but you could glue it if you're worried. Pretty simple. Wish I'd done it sooner! Mimi

  20. I love it! Your new dark hair goes great with your beautiful blue eyes. Good for you for "stepping out of your box" and going for a change. I'll bet you feel so confident.

    Thanks also for leaving such a kind, positive comment on my blog. :-)

  23. Wow! I love it! I noticed it right away in your profile pic! Isn't it funny when you are blond...you want dark hair? I am a natural blond and colored my hair dark years ago. I met and married my hubby with dark hair so now I tease him that he didn't know I was blond! heehee! I think you look beautiful and all of the pretty Fall colors will look so good on you this Fall and winter. Have FUN!
