Does this colour suit me?

[Valkyriejae]

As some of you may know, I've been more seriously considering taking the henna plunge. To that end, I've used a temporary dye to turn (most) of my hair roughly the shade I would want from henna.
That said, I am awful at colour matching and fashion and the like (seriously, I've worn things that I thought were cute and then seen pictures later and realised they make my skin look the colour of the undead!)
So, I am wondering - do y'all think the red suits me? Or should I stick with the natural colour?

Here is the red (except where the dye didn't sitck AT ALL on my roots nor on some randm other chunks of hair)




And here is my natural colour (ignore the weird expressions, the pic was for a casting call and I wan't allowed to smile)

I personally like your natural colour on you more. The red doesn't look bad but...I just like the blonde more .

I think the red is fine but your natural colour suits you better. Whatever makes you happy!

I think the red suits you, but I think your natural color suits you better. I love your hair btw, it looks so soft and shiny

Agree with everyone else to be honest, the red is lovely but your natural colour is really beautiful

[Vampyria]

I would also say that your natural colour suits you better.

Your natural colour i think is nicer as is the side parting. You can pull off both rather well

I agree with everyone else - your natural colour is beautiful and it suits you perfectly.

Definitely your natural blonette! You look gorgeous in both, but your skin looks glowy and eyes pop more with your natural color.

Since you mentioned the concern about looking too pale, you should remember that red tones make pink / ruddy tones in the face fade and actually make the person look whiter. Darker tones also make skin look whiter. So lighter, blonder hair (that you have naturally) is actually the best color for fair skin to avoid getting washed out. I think fiery red overwhelms your beautiful features a little bit.

+1 for your natural color! I don't want to say you look younger, but it makes you look more relaxed and well-rested. Red doesn't look bad, but it makes you look older in a negative way. But to be honest without a comparison I'd say that red looks good - with a comparison: natural looks better.
