I guess this might sound like a silly question, but my hair colour looks different depending on the lighting. I have never know what to call it. It's brown, for sure, but I hear everything from black to almost greyish blonde. :O Here are some shots, can you help me figure this out?

This was inside, in my office at school

This was ten minutes ago in my bathroom

This is in my bedroom at the same time on the same day, but the colour is different...

This was also taken in my office at school, but as you can see the colour is very different.

These were all taken with my Mac's camera, except for the bathroom picture which I took with my iPhone.

So, what colour would LHC say my hair is?

I'm guessing medium brown... I know exactly how you feel though! My hair is all different colors. It is really dark in some pictures, light brown in other pictures and then red in others.

Dark ash brown. The ash is why it can appear grayish. Lovely color and it suits you.

Solid brunette. I feel your pain though. Some people call be blonde. Some call me brunette. Some even call me a red head!! I figure I am just a goldeny very dark blonde/light brown.

I agree with the dark ash brown. I think the ash often can be decieving. I know for many years when I was younger (because I was blonde as a child) trying to convince people my hair was still blonde ("But if you take apart the hair and look at it strand by strand, it looks blonde!") haha. But yes, ash can also give it a gray/blonde cast in certain lights.

I was also blonde as a very small child. Dark ash brown seems to be the consensus, so I'll take it. :)
Thanks LHC!
