Okay, here it is.

NCshopper · Hermes

I really like it! It makes your skin have a really rosy, healthy glow to it. Looks great!

member · Hermes

I love it - it really flatters your skin tone!

jen · Kate Spade

I think it suits you well.

DC Shopper · Dooney & Bourke

I really like it - it looks so natural.

Metric · Gucci

I might have to be the lone voice of dissent here, but I think its a bit too dark. Not to say that you aren't gorgeous (b/c you so are!) but I think it would flatter you more if it was a little lighter. JMO, though.

Thanks (to BC and everyone else). What do you think of adding some highlights? This color is darker than my natural hair color and if you all remember, I was planning to do the Jen Aniston honey blonde color. Buuuuut....I was thinking this might be okay for winter, if I add some highlights. Thoughts on that? Thanks again!

ETA: Please excuse the waaaay tired look on my face in the first pic. I took that right before bed b/c I remembered that I said I would take a pic to show you all.

that was my first thought when I saw the pic. I think some golden brown highlights would be gorgeous and warm up your skin tone.

lynnie · Chanel

i really really like it as is. i don't even think you need highlights- maybe in the summer? i like dark glossy natural looking hair.

cat · Marc Jacobs

I like it.I think it look good the way it is,but if you add highlights it would look gorgeous (sp?) on you.

erin · Chanel

nyla, i like it, but i think just a *touch* lighter would look really nice. how long ago did you do this? semi/demi perm should keep lightening up gradually, so i probably wouldn't recommend adding more highlights. (because usually they will peek through)

hair tends to photograph a lot darker, too, so i bet this looks like the perfect shade in person.

exsupahero · Kate Spade

highlights would be great. it is kinda dark for you but how about cutting your hair a couple of inches? it looks heavy when its dark but otherwise, it looks good!

Ah, thanks, erin. I was hoping you'd weigh in on this. It is a little darker in the photos than irl and I have a few highlights starting to poke through. I have lots of blonde in my hair from before and there are streaks starting to show. Those pics were taken a few weeks ago, right after I did it.

exsupahero, I definitely am in need of a haircut! I plan to get one once the money starts rolling in from the new job.

Collette · Chanel

I really like it, your gorgeous as is but the dark hair is very striking on you!

laken1 · Hermes

I think it's pretty - maybe lighten it up after it starts getting warm. I think it's a good change for the winter! BTW, you are so pretty!

wicked · Coach

Looks really healthy and pretty, i love the length too!

bex · Chanel

i really like it Nyla. it compliments your coloring very nicely!

Hermione · Kate Spade

i like it too - alot!

poptart · Coach

I concur with BC and HB. You are gorgeous, though! And your hair is so long and healthy!!! I'm jealous.

Lilykind · Hermes

I think the hair color is very pretty on you as well, though it is a bit dark in the pics. But from the recent description of your hair color, it must be gorgeous IRL. You're very pretty!
