I really wanna dye my hair a lilac or something but I'm afraid I'll lose my natural color bc it's kinda unique and I have a weird strand of red I was born with. Idk I just wanna be able to go back to it. And I wouldn't be able to if I got lilac bc I would have to bleach my natural color.

Like the cut but I don't want to go shorter than shoulder length ever. I am trying to grow my hair out so I don't think it would work.

Shaving half my eyebrow so I can get any shape I want! I really want to, but I'm so chicken! 😂

I love this thread!! I think for me is bright eyeshadow. I wanted the Electric palette but for fear of never wearing it out in public I didn't buy it. I'm also pretty brave when it comes to many things like hair color, piercings, lipsticks, etc.

My eyebrows are a mess I wish I had more guys to try a stronger brow or different shape.

I really want to get a pixie cut, but I get nervous and decide not to. Wearing bold makeup too. And dyeing my hair. There are a lot of things! Lol!

Going bright/pastel pink with my hair color - I'm an anime nerd so I always love those girls with the pink hair but never had the balls to dye it on me :/ and if I want a decent job in my field I can't really do it either :(

Symone, that looks fierce! Not many people can pull it off but it works for you :)

Diana, what's your field? But I know what you mean! I want to shave my head for charity but I'm a dancer so I need to be able to put it into a bun :/

Maggie, that sounds like me a year ago! Start taking small risks and you'll be surprised to see how much it boosts your confidence.

I'd have to agree with Hannah on this...not that I'm afraid to try it cause I have...I love the way winged liner looks and have been told that it would look lovely on me but I can just not get it right...one side always looks amazing and then the other is way thicker then I try to even it out and mess up the good side...can't win with the winged liner...practice practice practice...one of these days I'll get it.

Renay, I know the feeling. I used to cut my hair every December, continue to spend the next year hating and regretting it and growing it out, cut it again in December, and start all over again! Not very smart of me, I know x) But after a couple of years of just having long hair I feel really free & liberated by my short hair, if that makes any sense lol :P

Hannah, I totally get it, and I hope my comment didn't come off as preachy. I think it's great that you have such a sense of individuality.

I've never even thought of actually doing contouring. I think I'll need years of practice before I can wear it in public. Good luck to you ladies if you have the guts to attempt it!

Elizabeth, I used to be the same way! I think as long as you have self control & don't overdo it you'll be fine x)

Christine, you should try it! It can be intimidating at first, but once you've figured out how you like them it makes a huge impact on your look :)

Thanks Carolina! I know what you mean. I always think those kind of bright palettes are so pretty, but at the same time I know I'll never get much use out of them.

Thanks Breeze! I'm with you on that. I've never seen myself as a total girly girl, so I tend to steer clear of all things glitter and sequins! I love metallics, but when it comes to chunky glitters I'm out x)

I want to streak my hair with purple...I'm not nervous about it but I'm itching to do it. The director at the domestic shelter that I volunteer at wants me to wait till October...when its DV Awareness Month. So I'm counting down.

But I am nervous about how the courts will take it as I'm often meet with judges and and the states attorneys office.

Not at all, Lizzy, it's a legitimate question =) Hell, sometimes I come off as preachy because I value individuality so much. It's a delicate balance.

Shelley, I'm sure if you explain to them what it's for, they'll understand. While I know that people associated with the law are more rigid than most, colored hair can be classy and beautiful. And, of course, since you are a classy and beautiful woman yourself, your hair certainly will not diminish that in any way.

For me it's cutting my hair shorter than shoulder length and coloring my hair. I have always wanted to but I'm scared to.
