RacerWife-Thanks so much about my color! It's all thanks to Aveda's madder root color conditioner with a dab of their clove (brown) color conditioner. Two months after coloring it is even more vibrant.
You all have beautiful 3a curls!!!

Took these today, I think they show the curl better.
RacerWife- how do you get your pic to show in your signature when you post? I love how you do that!

Wow, Slivola, I just want to steal your hair colour and pour it on top of my head. It's just so pretty, as are your curls!

Thanks, musicaleloquence. I love your curls and color, too (and user name!) I appreciate the color comment because I've been doing it myself and finally have found my HG color combo.

I use Photobucket to upload my pics. I've used them for about 7 years. Each uploaded photo includes a bunch of different codes and the "IMG" code is the one I use - and then there's a way to make them "clickable" images so they're small rather than HUGE. I love Photobucket.  I'm a computer geek to a certain degree, I suppose.

BeautifulRain- your hair is looking fab!
musicaleloquence- just saw your before & after cut pics. I love your hair shorter and I think it really enhances your features (even more)!

Thank you! It's a work in progress... about 4 months CG  I find I'm having a lot more good hair days than bad ones!

Thanks, Slivola! I do like my hair shorter, it suits me better that way, I think.

beautifulRain, your curls are so defined and the colour is so warm. Is that your natural colour? It's lovely.

Your hair is amazing! :O I've been wondering how you get your hair into the updo in the first picture? Do you use kirby grips or bobbles to hold it up?  Or neither? xD
I've been trying to get my hair into a nice looking messy bun for ages.. failing everytime :P

Thanks! It's unfortunately not my natural color. I did one of those 28-day things a few months ago and this is what's left of it. That is also with the flash on my camera, so it looks a little different in person. Without the flash you couldn't really see the curls. My natural color is just a boring medium ash brown.
