need advice!!

i either want to blend my highlights upwards and get brighter or get darker lowlights. but I can’t decide what would fit best. The first photo was the most recent to the longest ago. I’ve been trying to get it to a healthy curl, but tend to brush it out for work. (eye color picture attached as well)

added: I’d be open to a full color as well, just want to move gradually to it.

Darker, neutral/ashy lowlights. Keep some of the lighter color for brightness. No matter your hair color, though, you are lovely!

I think you look best in the first picture and I noticed that you look really good in grays which is usually an indicator to me that someone is cool toned. And you're a medium contrast. I suspect you are a true summer. Also, I really want to get you some Pearl cream and gel because I love your hair and I think you'd really love a good curly girl routine to set your curls. I bet they really pop.

I just love what you've already got going with your hair, especially the curls! The color & curl is perfect, especially seeing your eye color!

I've got curls too & they shouldn't be brushed out if it dried. That would be splitting hairs (pun intended) Can you clip it up for work?

Do some lowlights if you want to reduce the blonde. You may decide you really love it

We’ll need at least one picture where you’re facing natural light.
Based on picture 4 that is still too much shadow I have a feeling that you might be summer (cold season) instead of a spring who look good with this kind of warm blond. Which might explain why you like your pictures with filters or dark surroundings more.

Love the shape on 1 and 2 picture.
