I saw some really cute pointed toe white boots but I don't know what I would wear them with and how. They are short. Not the long ones. Like a little above the ankle. Anyone have those? What do you wear your with. I have never bought white boots. Just black or brown. Blue Jeans?

i have that hair tooo.. it sucks so much.. but i had it chemically straightened a few times and the first time, its was amazing, but i think as time goes on, your hair just f*ucks up and doesnt take to all the chemicals, this last time i had it done in the summer, and it just didnt really work, but it was more manageable rather than straight, so i can live with that! quote] I have a straightner but would love to get it chemically straightened. Is it very expensive to get it done? Also how long do the results last for? Thanks!

yeah, my sister got the asian hair, too. i got dark brown and kinda wavy Indy, I remember people talking about a makeup book aimed at asian women a loooong time ago. i'll try and dig up a link. apparently a lot of the models they used were eurasian so i think some of the tips were helpful or EAs. i really liked the colour that jolie dyed her hair. what kind of hair dye did you use, jolie? was it feria? sorry i replied really late.. i was just skimming through the posts and landed on my name.. lol... my hair is naturally med. brown - dark brown depending.. and the dye I used was: Loreal Feria Hair Color - All-Out Red Copper Red

I had fuschia/red highlights in my hair. Now they are faded and my hair looks stupid. I need to chose a new colour. Any suggestions?

I'm liking the brunette thing now.. maybe I'll do that next.. cuz my original hair colour was never that kinda brown..

Hmm. That could work But would it look weird when it starts to grow out, with my hair being lighter?

I finally went to my natural color after 10 years of dying it. It feels alot better!! It feel so healthy. It never looked bad before but I can just see how much thicker it is.

Any suggestions? when my streaks fade i just dye over my hair again w/ a semi in a reddish colour or something like that. because the rest of your hair is fairly light it will probably colour the rest of your hair too but the hilites will absorb more of the colour. that's what i always do just because it's so expensive to get hilites that it seems like a shame to just dye all of your hair dark again and covering them up. lisa, i'm trying to grow my hair out so i can have all my natural colour, too. i hate the way my bleached hair feels compared to my natural hair. but who knows how long i'll last without dyeing my hair.. i get so bored..

Although directed at Asians, heres a site that might be helpful: asiams.net/Beauty/beauty.htmlTheres a cosmetic company that's also directed at biracial women: www.zheninc.com/aboutus.htmlZhen cosmetics were created for women of color, providing foundation and makeup colors that are flattering for Asians, as well as Latinas and Hispanics, bi-racial and mixed race women, as well as women of Mediterranean descent.Margaret kimura's Asian Beauty asianbeautybook.com/index.htmlthanks to Juniper who originally recommended the book. i still haven't had a chance to look through it. Thanks guys your a wealth of information. lisa, i'm trying to grow my hair out so i can have all my natural colour, too. i hate the way my bleached hair feels compared to my natural hair. but who knows how long i'll last without dyeing my hair.. i get so bored.. I've been dying my hair jet black since I was 14. The real colour is light red/brown. Thinking of going back to my natural colour - don't know how I'm going to back out of the black though.

I'm probably going to go fuschia again, soon.

I'm waiting for my natual colour to come back. I bleached my hair to go a pink/red. I've dyed it back to black so many times but it fades. Permanent is so misleading, so now i'm stuck with a rusty brown colour.
