Hi gals,
I really need some honest help with my hair. I'm confused with my coloring, and don't feel like I fit into the normal equations (cool/warm/etc.). I trust your discerning eyes.
I'm 75% off-the-boat Southern Italian, 25% German/English.
I have dark green eyes, not the usual shade, so I never know whether they're "cool" or "warm". I've gotten comments about my eyes ranging from, "Irish", "German", to "maybe even Syrian".
I have quite pale skin, and sometimes even a little pink/peach-ness but not as fair/pasty as a blonde/redhead, and I sometimes pick up a little color that's more olive-y-Italian-Mediterranean-looking. That's when I get called Greek-looking.
No one can ever tell me whether I look best in silver/gold jewelry, or white or cream shirts. I wear every color, but feel best in bold jewel-toned colors, but for some reason, love neon highlighter yellow, which shouldn't work, technically.
My hair is naturally dark brown, but it gets golden/reddish/lighter at the temples/ends from the sun. I can't tell whether this is flattering and something to accentuate or if it's brassy/washes me out. I recently dyed it (temp) a cooler, darker brown, as a test-run for black, but I just can't figure out what's off. Is it that I just need a tan, or do I need an inky blue-black to set off my eyes? Or should I take this as a hint that I dislike my hair darker and cooler, and go a little lighter and warmer, maybe a warm brown with reddish? Or should I put blonde highlights in? Ahhhh....
Here's a pic, no makeup, so don't gag: http://img42.imageshack.us/i/angelpai.jpg/
Two more, was ~30lbs heavier back then, but you get the coloring idea:

What do you all think would be a good color for me? Open to *all* ideas, no matter how extreme.
