Yes I had a temporary dark red streak put in a few years back and I liked it and got lots of compliments.  They just slowly fade until gone.  BTW my hair is white.

I like the look and if I were (much) younger, I would definitely try it.

 

Right now, I do have two tone hair. Gray has grown out about four inches and the rest is brown hair from my last dye job months ago. Have to decide which way I am going - let it go gray or keep dyeing it....Smiley Tongue

In my 20s, yes. Especially now you can buy the hair color at the drugstore and wash it out when you need to. I love the look of jet black hair with amethyst or emerald streaks..

No.  I spend too much money on my hair color to go and do something silly like that.

About five years ago I wanted pink bangs and my hair dresser just thought I was joking.  Each visit, which was not often, I asked to have them.  Finally, she gave in and added the color.  It barely took on my dark brown hair - just a hint of pink.  I loved it for as long as it lasted - just about three weeks!!  I was 71 at the time!

Red is as much maintenance as I want.  These colors look good for such a short amount of time and then they just look tired until they finally go away.  The vibrant color lasts like one or two days.

a few years i wanted to do peekaboo highlights in a pinky burgundy. i did my own bayalage so i could do it myself. but now i'm 13 months out from coloring.  so i'll wait until i'm all natural. i have 6" of virgin hair now . i have so little grey except the temple area and a white streak in front. the rest is a blah dark blonde with grey mixed in.

Yes! My hair is naturally all black with zero gray. I've always wanted to get some teal blue highlights put in it but I'm too chicken to do it.Woman LOL

No. Immature.

 Reminds me of the Wizard of Oz  scene where they keep changing the color of the horses and singing  a " Horse of a different color".

I have thought about it from time to time. I have curly/coily hair and thought about getting a streak of royal blue on just one side. That is, as long as I could wash it away after a short time! Smiley Happy


That sounds pretty with your curls @Lake4 .  Maybe you could get one of those temporary colors and try it?
