I want to change my hair color, but what would look good? Photo included.

This is me now.

This is me now.

I'm one of those people who can't stand to have the same hair color for more than a year. I've had this dull brown that's gone from dark, dark brown, to a light a brown over this past year. My hair has been multiple colors before, from blonde, to red, to black. I want to change it sometime at the beginning of next year, and I'm not sure what. My boyfriend wants me to do a pale almost white blonde color. Which does sound uniquely beautiful, and I like that. But I don't want to damage my hair like crazy doing that. I want to dye it burgundy again, because it was such a dark and beautiful color. Or maybe dark brown hair, with chunky golden highlights with tints of red in some of the blonde strips.

What do you think? If I were to do the blonde thing, I'd have to get a wig, and I'm not sure if my boyfriend would pick on me for it or not.... But the white hair thing is intriguing.

Tell me what you think!! I really want to change it by next year

I love the color you have now, but I think the burgundy would also be beautiful. I'm not sure if the white/blonde would look as good, and it's bound to damage your hair.

you have an Olive tone it seems and I agree the white is a big no.. most guys DO like the blonde hair the lighter the better,, i also have one of 'those' men.. I like the idea of putting the highlights in Burgandy.. very nice! I think you could Really wear an awesome cool Razor Shaggy haircut allover.. for sure.. think about it and look at some pics the trend is there.. we did that in the 70s with a Razor and that way the ends are not Blunt,, but they are Tapered into points..

The color you have now is gorgeous but if you want a change lets change. The base color of burgundy although intriguing and probably pretty I believe has to much of a cool (violet) tone for you. Your skin tone would definitely be enhanced by a deep red/violet brown but the red needs to trump the violet by at least a 2:1 ratio. Then, I would have a medium weave of caramel colored highlights added around your face. The sun naturally lightens our hair around our face so it always looks better than all over highlights. Stay away from white blonde unless you want damage and a ton of upkeep. I hope this helps.
