Dearest Bad Kitty... Yummy. Love the new post with the "tweeks". I especially like the large nipples to go along with those amazingly beautiful breasts on "the blonde" (I am a brunette, too, so I know you have a so-so attitude about being blonde. I have at time, lightened my hair to appear more in the blonde camp, but I am not convinced it is a game-changer). I would certainly like to see the overall look of this model to be more mainstream and acceptable. Larger breasts are just... well, sexier!

I've done everything from black hair with a red sheen, to a dark strawberry blonde color.
I like the strawberry blonde color best on me
Lightening hair is really hard on it, and it's hard to keep the texture silky if i'm abusing it by lightening it. It wouldn't be an issue for short hair, but I like to keep my hair extremely long. And since hair is just protein strands, it doesn't 'heal' at all. You can only temporarily disguise damage with especially strong conditioners. At 2+ feet long, I have to kinda pamper my hair since the ends are like 3-4 years old protein strands
Fortunately, the dark strawberry blonde shade isn't all that much lighter than the natural shade.
If there was a less harsh manner of lightening hair, I'd wear the dark strawberry blonde shade all the time. Currently I have kinda dark strawberry blonde highlights.
Interestingly, when i had black hair for a little while, it was an accident. My usual hair dye only dye's more effectively if left in longer while dying. But I was trying another brand, and it actually dyed increasingly darker the longer I left it in. I didn't realize that and left it in about an hour and a half because i was watching a film while the color set... I rinsed it out, and it was surprisingly black hehe. It did have a very red sheen to it though, where the light reflected off it. I kinda liked it, and it made my eyes much more obviously hazel (in poor light they sometimes look brown). But it was far enough off my regular shade of auburn that the roots were very obvious in no time at all, so it would take a lot of maintenance to keep my hair that color. (plus I think i like a lighter shade better on me
here's my hair when it was more completely dark strawberry blonde (kinda old photo, halloween makeup for work at a crap job):
