Ok, I've got a window to do it. What's your opinion on what color I should dye my hair?

RED--Hawt, viking baby!
GREEN--Go with the Burning Man Theme
BLUE--C'mon, it's spacey!
PURPLE--The Royal Goth Color
WHITE-- Learnteach Tryggarson, Gentlemen Scholar!
SILVER GREY--Match the bike better.
BROWN--Hey, why not?
BLACK--like my heart, like my coffee.

What do YOU think?

White or silver would be dreadfully striking.
Monkey2 (blond as well) pulled off leaf green very well this summer.

Redheads Are Indeed Hawt...

...If I do say so myself. :-) Go red, baby!

Plus, if you use henna, it's actually good for your hair's condition. Makes it all shiny and soft. Where you live, there's probably squillions of places that carry it, and in all different shades, too.

As an aside, pretty much all the other colors will require stronger chemicals and your hair will not feel that great as a result. Saith a licensed, albeit non-practicing cosmetologist, which is the State's fancy term for a hair stylist. Yeah, you may think you've got short hair, it won't be there that long, but at 1/2" inch a month it still takes a while to grow out completely, unless you are OK dealing with a buzz cut. Me, I really don't think that would look too great on you although it works on some guys. Also, realize that "temporary" colors aren't necessarily all that temporary. If your hair is damaged anywhere from, sun, heat, harsh shampoos, chlorine, etc, then the hair shaft is open and the color will move inside and stay there. Since your hair is blond, it'd show, and since the damaged areas probably aren't consistent, it'd be very uneven. We had a blond come into my hair school who used spray-on "shampoo-out" pink coloring for Halloween that left a stubborn pink streak that she could not wash out. We had to bleach it out, which was rough on the (already damaged) hair involved.

Red! I'm ordering henna in the next few days (well, henna and indigo because I can't get away with bright red, damn conservative lawyers!) so let me know if you want some.

Yes Please!

Othar is my vote, although you have more Clue than he seems to.

The other option is one color on one side, another on the other.

I'm a sucker for redheads. But white also sounds REALLY REALLY cool!

Better living through chemistry! That's my motto!!!

It seems like red and white are winning the vote. How about red and white stripes. We could dye your ears blue and be patriotic.... :)

I've been contemplating the switch to silver, myself. Then again, I've been earning my grey more rapidly than I'd have thought possible, so I may not have to rush the process at all.

With your complexion (inasmuch as a colorblind dude looking at a jpeg can discern it), I find it hard to imagine something other than red, silver grey or possibly brown looking natural. But I suppose the point isn't to look natural. Submit to electrolysis and have your scalp tattooed with a map of Jupiter.

No!
