Search Results: thick hair

I have long (just below mid-back lenth), thick, dark brown hair. Sometimes I love it, sometimes it bores me. I've pretty much never dyed it because the darkness makes it difficult. I tried doing a little copper balayage last year for a change and it literally did not show up. I sometimes feel like a change - but I don't want to lose length as its taken me some years to get it this long and I think it suits me better than short. I am not wanting to go blonde as it will just damage my hair and to be honest it is not going to suit me (black eyebrows and pale skin). I've had some thoughts on attempting ginger/redhead for my hair, but I am not sure. It is the only colour I know for certain will suit my features (very pale skin and green eyes). But, I would not want it to look red -red, but rather more natural so I don't know how achievable that is. Or should I just accept that beautiful brunette is just me?

So I have thick 4C hair and I honestly feel like it makes me ugly and manly looking. I even avoid going out if my hair isn't done. I don't feel comfortable going out to talk to strangers unless my hair is straight. I'd ask myself would I be okay with having 4B hair and even then I'd still be uncomfortable because it's too close to black and most men don't like that.

I don't see women wearing their hair out. I feel like a freak of nature and I hate it. I especially hate how good I am at pretending I like my real hair.
