For the past week, I've been providing tips on how to keep your hair color looking fresh and fade resistant. I've covered redheads, brunettes, and raven-haired beauties.
And now, let's finish this series off by featuring tips for blondes.

Jessica Simpson has been experimenting with her hair color lately. She went from bombshell blonde to a more serious brunette. Somewhere in between she and her famous hairstylist buddy, Ken Paves, played with low lights to add depth and pale highlights just around her face for a sexy and soft effect.

People with blond hair are called blondes. The same goes for brown-haired beauties, who are known as brunettes. If you have red hair, you're known as a redhead — whether it's copper, auburn, strawberry, or colored with reddish-violet undertones.

My friend here — we'll call her Debbie Harry for fun — has the kind of long, beautiful, blond hair that I daydream about having. It's soft, golden, kinda Shiloh Jolie-Pittesque, and it complements her porcelain skin so well. We went out the other night, and I offhandedly mentioned how I've been thinking of dyeing my hair blond.

This is one of those things I always hear, and a lot of women, like Anna Wintour here, do seem to opt for blond as they get older. I always assumed women go blond in their 40s and 50s because it's the easiest way to cover gray, but I've heard some vague evolutionary biology stuff thrown around, too, where people say that blond = youth. Because babies have lighter hair than adults, generally, blondes read as more fertile and youthful.

It sure has been a long time since we've seen Cyndi Lauper on the scene, but the other night she arrived at the Emery Awards with bleached blond hair. Her complexion looks amazing, but I'm also a wee bit disappointed that she's grown out of her wild, multi-colored hair from her halcyon years. Which hair color(s) do you like best on Cyndi Lauper?

Ever since she was Princess Buttercup, Robin Wright Penn has been known for her enviable caramel blond hair. Yesterday, though, she arrived at a screening of The Private Lives of Pippa Lee with dramatic espresso hair and a much sexier look (she's also aging fantastically, don't you think?). I love both shades and I admire her willingness to go for a big change, but which color do you think suits the Princess Bride better?

Raise your hand if you've tried Sun-In. My hand is raised — and so were my mother's eyebrows when I tried several squirts of the hair lightener back in junior high. My locks transformed into a rusty orange tone, and it wasn't pretty.

Remember the days when bobby pins were just bobby pins, and all you got from the color selection were just a few measly shades for blondes, redheads, brunettes, or black-haired beauties? Not anymore. These days, there's just about every size, shape, and color imaginable.

Recently, I made my yearly — OK, it's been more than a year — trip to the eye doctor. I've worn glasses for about 14 years now, and from one "trendy" frame to another, I've had lots of different looks. Since some were good, and others I'd prefer to forget, that was the inspiration behind this series of posts on choosing eyeglass frames.
