How do I get the courage to talk to my crush?

Back in elementary school (3rd grade), I saw a beautiful girl that was new to my school, and I never talked to her until the 5th grade, because that's when she and her friend went up to me and said hi mitch, and walked away giggling. And when she was in 8th grade and I was at 7th grade, I started talking to her on text, and in school as well. And at her graduation I went up to her and gave her a graduation card saying congrats and whatnot. And during the summer I got rejected by her friend that I liked at the time. And she asked if i'm ok, and I said yes and said I liked someone else now. I relise now that was a mistake and makes me sound needy. After that we never texted again. Ever. And all throughout my 8th grade year, I never talked to her. And now that I'm in 9th grade in high school, I saw her, and tbh, I kinda like her now, I always liked her personality, but now, her looks are the icing on the cake. But the problem is, she seems to not have any interest i me anymore, if she even recognises me, because my hair color turned brunette to blond from bleach over the summer. And my looks have changed. And she always hangs out with like 6 boys and 3 of her girl friends EVERY DAY. And I want to talk to her, but I don't know when the right time is, or what to even say to her without sounding weird. ANd I texted her again but she never responded back. And it's been 4 weeks into high school so far.
