To Dye or Not to Dye?

two years ago i woke up one day and felt compelled to cut all my hair off! i went from a long mane of curls to a short bob.

So much hair!

To above the shoulder bob!

What! It's all gone!

Yesterday i came across the blog Le Happy and have been inspired by the girl who writes it to change my hair. So i did i went and got it cut spare of the moment. However i still have a burning desire to dye it red. I absolutely love the colour of her hair.

There are so many reasons why i shouldn't do it. It has taken me 3 years to get back to my original colour after a rather expensive and long mistake involving Sun In! Never use Sun In. Instead of looking like a beach babe my hair went orange and when i tried to rectify the situation later it turned bright purple instead of chestnut brown. Error!

hard to tell - but it is actually ORANGE!
Most disturbing part - i actually liked it at the time!

So anyway it has taken 3 years to get my hair back to a longer length and back to its original colour. Do i fuck it all up by dyeing it bright red? Or leave it natural? - it looks nice as it is, just pure boredom of how i look is urging on this spontaneous desire for change.

I have tried weighing it up in my head.

PRO'S

1, it MIGHT look really good (very uncertain however hence the stress on "MIGHT") 

2, last time i can potentially just dye my hair like this, as i will have to be professional from the summer onwards.

3, i can't really think of anymore.

CON'S

1, could look really really bad.

2, if it goes wrong have to dye it back brown and will loose natural colour.

3, Roots!

My other alternative is maybe just dip dye it red.

I'll let you know!
