With natural means of course. My hair since giving birth has grown out darker and curlier but is still very susceptable to the suns lightening ways. Except now the lighter ends dont quite go with the top (in my humble opinion.)http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x223/misspurd06/20150511_141237_zpsjvwrdlya.jpg

My haif looks the same, it just has a lightwr base colour and also lighter ends. I think tjat if they're damaged you should trim slowly, or if you think they look bad, you could henna or something... I think it's a very natural look that makes you look "right out of the each", and now that Summer ( for USA and Europe) is kicking in, the roots will lighten too:) I wouldnt cut, buf it's up to how they make you feel.

"Sun bleached ends...Should I color them? "

I can only say my own opinion. Yes if you colour them with some cool shock colour :D No if you plan to colour them so that it looks all one colour. You have a lovely natural ombre going on - people are paying big money to get their hair bleached like that!

Maybe something to make the ends less brassy.

Brassy? I think they look golden! I really think your hair looks very beautiful just like that! Or, I can just imagine how great it would looks with red dip dye!

Ofcourse you have your own tastes. Maybe a conditioner meant for silver hair would work?

I know how you feel! I also have an "accidental ombre" from the sun and chlorine and wish it would go away.

purple shampoo will take the brassiness out. :) i think it looks lovely, though, and congrats on the little one!

I think it looks very pretty, like natural highlights. So I'd say NO to color because it's purty :o

I think it looks so lovely just the way it is, especially on your texture.

Nooooo, don't colour them! Natural highlights are something absolutely beautiful! I'm spending hours in the sun so my hair will lighten naturally, too. :P

I also vote no!
I love when hair naturally does that. The last time I had somewhat long, virgin hair (probably junior high..) my ends did the same thing and I am hoping it happens again once my hair is all virgin.

Personally I think they look lovely and would never call them brassy just a rich golden colour. Of course it's your hair though not mine so you could try amla packs to add an ash tone to it and if you use a rosemary infusion to mix with it that will help stain it darker. These would take repeated applications to darken though. Other herbs you could include are bhringraj, brahmi, sage, black tea and of course indigo.
Oh Hesh Heenara herbal hair wash is also darkening and saves the hassle of mixing yourself.

Your hair is beautiful the way it is! But if you don't like the golden-ness of it for whatever reason, you can try a toner (deposit-only) or purple shampoo/conditioner.

I think it looks nice, like natural highlights! You don't know how many women would pay a lot to have that done!
