Ok, so I was flipping through old profile pics on facebook, and I came across an old photo. Isn't it interesting what hair color, makeup, and seasons can do to change your appearance?

Before (hair with remnants of henna, sun bleaching, no makeup, sun tan, about 4 years younger)



This past winter (dark red/brown hair, makeup, pale)

That is quite the transformation! Very nice.

I won't post 4 year old pictures of myself because I've aged about 10 in the past 2 years. LOL

Thanks everybody! I sorta just meant the photos as an example of what makeup, hair color, and a tan or lack thereof can do, but I like the compliments Big Grin

It is only recently that my face shape has changed at all since I was young. I FINALLY don't look like I am 15 anymore Big Grin. Oh, and thanks, Melissa. My lips are one of my fav. features. Big Grin

I love this new look. It is easier to look either sophisticated or edgey.

It IS amazing how a change of shades can change things up. I went a bit darker with my haircolor last year and loved the extra contrast...but now I'm creeping back to my less contrast, less maintenance henna, and not so noticeable roots with lighter hair. My hairdresser prefers me with darker hair -- and I think I do, too. But the grays sure show up faster with more contrast!

Not that you have to worry about that anytime soon....

Life is life. I'm not worried about gray hairs as long as I have henna... Smile Not sure what I'll do when I'm in my 80's and mostly white.... probably go blonde... henna would look like a bright orange mop on my head with all that white to soak into...

Really? I would have thought it was the other way around. Cute in the first pic, something else (let's say gorgeous Big Grin) in the second.

Haha, no worries, it's just that people always used to call me "cute" and I was tired of that. I know what you meant Wink
