.As a tween that came of age in the '00s, there was actually absolutely nothing I wished much more than to color my hair every different colors of the rainbow. With their flame-red streaks, pop-punk little princess Avril Lavigne and Hayley Williams were my appeal icons-- yet my parents failed to entertain the notion for also a millisecond. Once I am actually 30, I often tend to believe they were actually probably right-- mundane, certain, yet right I can easily depend on one hand the number of opportunities my brunette-- almost black-- hair has actually been actually touched through bleach. (I was actually properly into my 20s the very first time I tinted my hair, and it is powerful, dense, and also well-balanced as could be.) However, I will be actually lying if I claimed that I really did not wish to explore my color, and as Refinery29's senior article writer with a fondness for all things charm, I have actually had a front-row chair to essentially every hair different colors fad to poise our FYPs: That being claimed, only one color has actually recorded my eye in recent times: "Costly" brunette.
