Thank you! See, it happens to a lot of people who got blonde!

My friend dyed her hair blond a while ago and the same thing happened. She has been keeping up the blond highlights for over a decade now. I don't even remember her real color anymore. Lol. I think it was a sandy brown

This depends on the original colour I guess. I'd look / feel ridiculous blonde.

I definitely get more attention with dark hair than with blonde.

Checked your pic. I think it's possible that blonde contrasts you a bit. Brunette may have been too plain, so the blonde makes you pop. Because for some, blonde is great. Like Raven Symone. She wore a blonde wig on her show, and it looked great. So sometimes, a nice contrast can make you pop.

My skin is very fair. Very, considering I have no color whatsoever. I can't even tan, because my skin has no color to darken. So, my hair is blonde on top of it. And after wanting to completely change my look, I find blonde hair may not be for me--being blonde hasn't gotten me any kind of attention. It's just vanilla on vanilla. Boring. So, I go for red. it's contrast, but not as dark as black. Because originally, I wanted black hair, but it wouldn't work with my face.

So, the blonde looks different on you. And if it's getting you some grand attention, and you like it, keep it and rock it!

Don't know how you looked before but it looks great!

I was blonde once and experienced the same as you even though I look much better with dark hair (so I wasn't blonde for very long).

The Washington Post just published an article about how prevalent plastic surgery (botox, etal.) has become on Capital Hill in DC. Saying that folks in 'high-communication' positions need to look "relevant" to be at their best.

So even men with bags under their eyes are getting minor surgery to look better rested.

I've always thought my 'decent' appearance helped way more on the job than in dating.
