ELLE SERA BELLE by Ema: spring

Hi Everyone,

I hope you had a great weekend! I didn't do anything special; running a lot of errands lately.

But I made some time for shooting some new outfit pictures which you are going to see in the next few days. I have been obsessed with hats lately so you will see a lot of them in my posts.

As you can see from these pictures, I was brave and dyed my hair this weekend. I have had highlights for a long time now, and I just didn't want to keep up with dying the roots all the time, so I thought it's time for a change. I love my highlights but I do love my natural color as well. So what do you think of my new hair color? Do you like it?

I remember when I was in high school I couldn't wait to dye my hair. It felt such a grown up thing to do. My mom was {and still is} very obsessed with me having long and healthy hair{she actually cried when I cut my hair short while living away from her in England, but that's another long story}, so of course she didn't want me to dye my hair. I don't remember how I did it, but I managed to have her agree with me so I could dye my hair for my senior prom. I was super happy. Looking through a lot of celebrity magazines, I had pictured in my mind the exact color I wanted my hair to be. So the time came for me to dye my hair and I was still super excited, until I sat in the comfy chair and I was looking at myself in the mirror. I don't know if this happens to you as well, but every time I am about to change my hairstyle or do something to my hair, in those last few moments I look myself in the mirror, I feel so beautiful and I almost change my mind. But of course, I didn't change my mind because I wanted to be a grown up. I went through with it and to be honest I didn't really like the final result. But then I got used to it. Since then, I have experimented with few different hair colors but nothing too drastic. If I knew then what I know now, I wouldn't have dyed my hair in the first place. It's such a pain to keep dying it all the time; not to mention how unhealthy it's for your hair. I have few younger cousins and I always advise them not to dye their hair. One of them, Anika, she is almost 21 and has never dyed her hair. Her hair is absolutely gorgeous!

Of course I still hope that one day I'll grow out my natural hair color, but it hasn't happened just yet cos I am so impatient. Maybe one day!

What are your thoughts on dying your hair?
