    im a brunette and in february i went blonde. I get my hair done in peter marks and have to get the highlights done every 6-8 weeks at 143 e's a go (that includes a cut). I am delighted i went blonde it totally gave me a lift. if you dont mind the extra expence go for it, even if just for the summer.

    I was blonde for years, and have recently gone dark. It depends, Blonde suits most people, so that shouldnt be a problem.
    Like I said in another thread, my hair is fairly nackered after all the damage it did, so if you are going to get it done, get it done properly, and buy the proper products for the upkeep. Be prepeared to shell out, imo blonde is the dearest of all colours to maintain.

    Heya

    The up keep is pretty hard. I was blonde for years. Im naturally a brunette, so after about 2 months or so, I could start to see the roots, which isnt pretty. Just gone back to being a brunette again. Way handier, and cheaper! Id be very slow about going back to being a blonde. Iv a lovely shine, and my hair is far healthier looking now then it was when it was blonde.:)

    peter marks use a product called Loreal Luo, im a blonde and get this put on my roots for 90euro every month, then after four months ill get a full head of highlight with luo in between which costs a little over 200 euro.
    the luo is good for your hair as it contains no peroxide, and adds a great shine.

    Go for it.... upkeep is expensive and you can't really heat style it everyday..

    One piece of advice... buy the shampoo and conditioner in the salon too... you only need a small amount but they are worth it

    I have had infinitely more fun since I've gone blonde! :D

    you do have to take really good care of it though...bt it's worth it!

    and sure why not..!you can always go back if you don't like it!
