No, the universe is telling you to put an image up, for compareson: One redhead vs one blond, and let the clilentelle (where's the italics when you need it?) decide (and us, naturally ;))

(PS: First time poster, long time reader)

As a natural redhead that dyes to cover grey I would NEVER consider being any other color. I am a full-figured woman that is more on the cute to pretty side than beautiful. However, men are ALWAYS hitting on me. I wish I had a dollar for every time a man told me what a fantasy a redheaded woman is for him. You might be ravishing as a blond but I've yet to see a redhead that looked better with blond/brunette/black hair than she does as her true flame headed self.

I've been reading your blog for quite some time now and have read every post. You come across as a redhead: strong, independent, confident, adventurous, etc. Anybody can be a blond but not everyone can be a redhead.

That's just my opinion though.

Platinum blonde looks slutty-sexy.
Redheads looks seductively sexy.

Remember when Lauren Holly was a redhead in Picket Fences? God, was she hot. Then she became a blonde, which actually was her natural color (I think). And when she did, she was beautiful...but in the same sort of beautiful blonde way that so many other blondes look like. She wasn't unique anymore.

Cynthia Nixon also looked better as a redhead, but she's just unique-looking enough that it really didn't matter when she went back to her natural color.

But I agree with Pandora.

As a dark skinned man, blonde's away!! I love them especially the ones with the dark pubes

My first hypothesis is that your friend, despite the fact that she sometimes forgets she's now a blonde (how stereotypical can you get?) has increased her income due to her own increased confidence rather than because of the actual change. Men like what they like and it is my firm opinion that while a disproportionate number of them may fantasize about blondes, in reality, their tastes are quite varied. I myself like black hair, red hair, brown hair, and blonde hair. That's the *order* I like them in, but I like them all. I also like crazy anime hair, come to that. :) Perhaps you'd look interesting with, say, sea-green hair?

Redheads are few and far between, bleached blondes are everywhere. You are unique. Stay that way.

Change? heavens no!
Redheads are unique - you can't swing a dead cat without hitting 5 fake blonds.

Besides, being a fake blond screams "I am a slave to the media gods".

A person with your strong independent streak should be messaging that.

I've never commented here before, Alexa, but I just have to on this post...

Please, PLEASE don't change from red to blonde. I have no idea what you really look like -- although you sound sexy as all get-out -- but there are blondes all over the place. Redheads just have a thing of their own going on, somehow -- live it, love it, enjoy it. Blondes -- for all their supposed "fun" -- just seem more plain to me. More common.

And you're anything but common, if your adventures are any indication.

All the best to you...and have fun with this "M" person! ;-)

Don't go pretencious on us now. From what I can tell you don't resort to the tactics that others use in order to run your own life. Hey, I know I don't even know "you" but really...do you want to be the same as everyone else or do you want to be an original...to me it seems like that's what you try to do every step of the way. Am I wrong?

I never understood that obsession with blonds, It has been studied that the blond gene is slowly disappearing, so i regret to inform you all, that this is a trend that won't go away or worse will grow as the number of real blonds grow shorter. Don't get me wrong, I love blonds as much as I like my brunettes, my red,black haired women.
I dated them all and they are as any human being.
But hey, Alexa! If you can cash in on this, don't hesitate, you'r real beautiful colour will always come back.

Nope. According to Googlefight, red wins:

Seriously, women everywhere tend to think that they would be more attractive if they changed something about themselves. But it's not as important as you might think. As someone above said, it's more how you carry yourself than what you look like.

Ok, so I know everyone's against you going blonde and wants you to accept your hair color as is, but I gotta say...what's the harm?

I say you go for it! I think everyone should be blonde at one point in their life. I personally have dark black hair, but during highschool, I've had red, brown, orange, blonde, blue and even green hair (the blue and green were wash out sprays, but the orange was a total mishap) and I gotta say...I had more fun as a blonde. Honestly I did.

I mean, dont get me wrong, I love my black hair and all, but I think going blonde is just something that I think everyone should try. I mean, it's not a permanent factor, it's just a cool thing to experiment with. You're young, have some fun with your hair!

Redhead all the way!! If you look through your old yearbook, how many classmates were blonde? red? notice a big difference? Redheads are found few and far between and that alone should be exciting! Blondes are everywhere... I love being a natural redhead, but dying it every now and then to make it more bold, there are sooo many compliments, and that will boost anyones confidence, if you want a change, change the shade of red, but stay red!!

Noooooo, don't do the blonde thing!

Redheads are a like that stupid bird out here, vary rare. Blondes however, wellllllllllll. I think most the other posts have covered that :)

Stay the red. Don't succumb!

Someone mentioned that the blond gene is slowly disappearing - I find that a bit surprising, but at the same time, I'm not shocked. I've heard that even more so, the redhead gene is disappearing - it is a recessive trait, meaning the best way for more redheads to populate the earth is if redheads kept on having babies with other redheads. Some estimate that the redhead will eventually become very rare or practically nonexistent in a few more generations.

This is a very sad thought for me, since I love redheads more than any other color. Although being blond may sound more fun or potentially lucrative, being a natural redhead is something to be happy with.

Much bravado backing up a love of redheads. I have seen some shockers when freckles are out and about, expecially all over....yuk. Some redheads are spectacular but the ugs can be scary.
