Changed my hair color and somehow feel fugly now

It was dyed red but the roots were showing so the hairdresser said she'd fix it but she dyed it dark brown and I just feel like I'm totally hideous now, like everytime I remember my hair in public I'm like oh yeah I'm hideous now. Should hair color make me feel this ugly? And whenever I see a guy looking at me I think oh he must be looking because I'm so ugly now.

    I think sometimes after a big change in colour or style you do feel a bit odd afterwards. Recently I had my hair dyed a darker brown than normal and I could barely look at myself in the mirror afterwards, looks weird!

    LOL firefly!!!

    How often do you stare at an ugly guy? You just don't do it so they probably find you attractive but your confidence lay in your red hair. You'll either get used to it, if not just dye it back. You are not hideous because you have brown hair.

    I saw you, I was definitely trying to figure out what died on top of your head. Later on, I joked with my stunningly attractive male best friends about your hair and we now considered you a woman beneath our notice.

    Are you for real?

    Here are your choices:
    1- Re-dye it
    2- Get the expletive over it
    3- Jump in front of a bus

    You decide which seems like the most reasonable response to a displeasing hair dye job here. I would also reccomend that you perhaps reevaluate how much you care what boys are thinking about your hair. Because in all honesty, they are probably thinking more about the region between your neck and knees.

    Funny I had my hair dyed red and it was nasty. I went back to my brown. I was told by all to stick with brown. Maybe guys were looking at you because you look hot. If you have blue eyes like I do, they look nice with dark brown hair. Be more positive about yourself and you will feel better.

    It's normal to feel odd when things change or are out of place. When I wear my extensions or change my hair color I feel like everyone is staring, thinking about how fake my hair looks or how the color looks terrible. But I know this isn't true.
    If you don't get used to it in a week or so, change it back. Maybe you'll learn to love it.

    I was born a natural blonde but as I've gotten older, my hair has gotten to a dark brown. So I decided to dye it blonde and I hated it. I felt so ugly that I dyed it back the next day. You may think you look awful, but people probably actually like it. Sometimes a hair change just isn't for you.
