Looking good! The thing that ***** about red hair, they don't make matching bobby pins... so you have to work harder to "hide" them. I've been finding since I've gone back to dark hair, I don't have to hide them so much... they camoflage easier. But I sure miss red hair.. especially when I see your beautiful color Antje!:D

thank you for your comments
O Yes Red I know, it's somethimes so difficult to hide those bobby pins,
This was a first try to do some roles a different way,

I'm glad that i Can make victory rolls now whitout bobby pins showing.
Red hair is really great but i'm a natural blonde so it is very frustrating when my roots start to show, I have to collor my hair quit a lot

Well when I did the rols at first it looked very strange, the middle role was standing real high at the exact middle of my head so that looked a little silly, but i flattened it with a couple of bobby pins it turned out like this.

a little more flat, then I just went out and hear about reactions, I did'nt get any because maybe they're used to it by now.

I love your hair Antje. the rolls and the color are great. I miss being a redhead but I paid dearly for it. Now I am just sticking with my natural brownish/blackish/redish mud colored hair.

Red! ---thanks for the advice. i'll have to invest in a smaller barreled curler. i have one but it's only really the right size to use for victory rolls. i shall have to practise. i keep falling back on foam sticks in a wet set overnight except they really, really hurt and turn me into an insomniac. so an alternative would be nice. and whilst i'm a dab hand at the old pin curls, that back section gets me everytime.
lol

I really adore seeing photos with fringe and rolls. I am in that in-between land where the older I get I think I need to keep my bangs down to look younger. I can do rolls with my bangs pulled back/up but I am not so sure how to do rolls with bangs/fringe. Seeing all these photos really helps with ideas. Just adorable ladies.

hair help

I need some ones opinion and what a better place to come but here! I want to try something new but not to far out there, im in hair school right now and just want a change, I have natural red hair and so I don’t want to do to much because I really love love love my red hair. So here is what I need from you!
I have 2 pictures of me below (sorry im at work so it's not the best pic) I have hair that will do just about anything I need it to, is really coarse. This is of it after I straightened it 2 days ago, im trying to grow it out but I don’t mind my fringe being cut.
below the 2 pictures of me are 2 pictures of another red head with really blond chunks in her hair, I want to know if people think I could pull this off? I have a few blond highlights in my hair now so I don’t know if it would look right or not, my hubby says do it but he says that to anything I want to do, so I need some honest opinions, if you don’t think this would work I would love a few suggestions. Please help :)
