***+++ Blonde Lives Matter Series December 28, 2017 ***+++
Today a friend was describing a manager she dislikes, finishing with
"of course he's blonde, what do you expect." (Her hair is a perfect style/color for the workplace, she SO looks like a get-it-done woman with her dark brown 1 1/2" length 'do.')
(The two of them work in a hospital in Newport Beach, you'd think they'd be easier on blonde folk, I guess not.)
Blondies can be at a disadvantage in a brunette world (until you've proved yourself/shown them how competent you are) in the work environment.
If your natural hair color is pale blonde PLEASE don't try dying it brown to fit in (can look HIDEOUS/frightening with pale skin.)
A suggestion:
Jon Renau's shaded sun is a color we can easily carry off (has platinum tipped ends.)
The roots are dark (putting our brunette peers at ease) with a progressive shading toward the ends.
It's less in-your-face than our natural all over pale hair (great for getting dates, can unleash unrestrained aggression from new (female) coworkers, why put yourself through it.)
Clone/find a style that matches your own hair, topperize per the directions in the previous post.
You're set for a business meeting, interview, first day of work. (Plus no standing in front of the bathroom mirror for a 1/2 hour with your elbow in the air making 'beachy waves,' you'll totally be on time, out the door in a flash (in about the same time it takes to put on a baseball cap.))
Shaded sun is a win/win, no stress, you'll look beautiful, + best chances with your new colleagues!!
