Has your hair changed color naturally?

[Rocco]

Has your hair ever naturally changed its color? I am somewhat weirded out that my hair recently changed its color.
When I was a child I had (a fever) platinum blond hair. Like white with yellow tint.
Then puberty started and my hair changed to sandy blond and eventually brown.
Now, at 34 it's turning red! In the sun I look like strawberry blond to dark red brown.
It's usually brown looking but I have been growing it out this year and it is about mouth/ shoulder length mostly, and I had my hat off in the sun and my hair was glowing red. What the hell?

Has your hair changed more than once in your life, naturally?

I do not dye my hair. Although prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause blond highlights. I don't know what to think about this...

My hair was dark when I was first born. It lightened to a very light blonde by the time I was a year old. It's stayed blonde even now as an adult, but will lighten some in the summer and get a little darker in the winter.

Yeah... my hair changed... as a kid I was sporting pretty light blond hair. Slowly into my teens it got darker and I had this darker blond, nearing a light brown going on. Then I started doing dyes; black up to green, blue, red, pink, purple and the entire spectrum for a few years, eventually settling for black again around my early 20's. But as it went, with coloring my hair, I noticed my roots got a good bit darker over years to a increasingly darker brown tone.

Then, I shaved everything off for a while and let it grown only to have a medium brown going on into my late 20's.

Nowadays, I usually dye it jet black, but haven't for a while and I have a odd shade of reddish brown going on for most, with the ends black from dye still in it from last time I colored my hair.

So I went from light blond, to light brown, medium brown up to reddish brown now.

Wouldn't surprise me if use of hairdyes has anything to do with it for me personally.

That's interesting@Rocco, my hair did almost the same thing. I was never quite platinum blonde, but my hair was very fair as a child. In my teens it was more of a sandy blonde. In my early 20s I started highlighting it and thought that it was still about the same natural colour. Then I lived with someone in a basement for a while and my hair went a very dark brown. After moving out and getting more sunlight I began to get beautiful copper-red highlights, with my hair eventually bleaching to a mousy dark to medium brown. If I get enough sun I will get some blondeish streaks.

I really wish I could maintain that "dark with natural red highlights" look, but my hair always fades to a rather dull shade. Oh well, that's what hair dye is for.

Several colors. From blonde to dark brown to grey and so light it looks blonde again in some spots.

The sun lightens my hair considerably during the summer. Canonically it is light brown, but I've been accused of being blonde in the past. Always during the summer.

Was born with black hair. Then within a year or so it turned into a sort of golden blond. Now I'm an adult and it's sort of an ashen colour. Funnily enough my fiancee has a similar story and he's also on the spectrum. He was born platinum blond, was dark brown during his puberty and now has this weird blondish colour that seems to change colour while you look at it.

My hair tone has warmed greatly in the last few years. I used to be described as ash brown but now it's got a nice warm reddish tint to it that I'm really enjoying. Also grays, but I don't really care about those.

Brown to mostly grey, however that is OK. At my age I am thankful to have hair.
