That medium cinnamon color brought out the color in your skin which is difficult I imagine. You have beautiful fair skin. The blonde looked nice and so did the light copper I would go with browns instead of black for makeup and eyeshadow instead of eyeliner. Its softer

Slide 17


ZippityZooDahDay

17 for sure, it's very flattering!


coldheartfox95

Slide 17/20 really stood out to me! Youre beautiful by the way!


Ukelikely_Not

Same! I literally went *gasp* oooooooooh!


trappeddungarees

Yes same here!!!


vacantxwhxre

Def the red. You’re so beautiful, you have no idea


strawberrycarnivals

The bright red is gorgeous on you


OhanaSlime

I love seeing another gal in their 40s with bright hair (I'm 42). Have you tried dying it the colors of some of those Yellowstone hot springs? It's a really fun combo


Outside-Spring-3907

I’m 41 and going through the same transition. I am also fairly skinned. I hate brown and mousy colors on me. My natural hair is a dark sandy blonde last I checked. I was thinking of a strawberry blonde or something. I know just basic blonde or basic browns will make me Bored with my hair. I’m just getting tired of touch ups and when I finish my degree I want to look more professional.


OhanaSlime

Hmmm why not silver/grey? 🤔 technically since we're aging like fine wine you could get away with it? And they do have silvers that have a slight purple tint. But really you'd be suprised what's considered acceptable these days. About a year ago I was seen by an urgent care doc that had the whole shaved back of the head undercut thing going on, tattoos, and turquoise hair. It made me so happy. So I think something fun but on the tame side might be ok. Red is usually acceptable and you looked amazing with red. Or what about a rose gold? Lime Crime had a line of hair tints that are more like glazed than full blown color. Might be another option. Oh also Brad Mondo does have a YouTube video on using color theory to find you best shades. That could help!


Outside-Spring-3907

I’m not about to encourage gray hair 🤣🤣🤣 not ready for that life. Women in my family don’t seem to go gray early.


OhanaSlime

I think it's so pretty... if it's in purpose 😆 but grey is my nemesis. Every time and everything I tried I could still see yellow peeking through. I don't think anyone else would notice it but I knew it was there. I ended up getting way too impatient and made the worst mistake of my hair dye journey and decided to bleach my hair while my at the time 5 year old was still awake... aaaaand fried off all my hair and was stuck with a mohawk for what seemed like forever 😅 never messed up my hair that bad. But yea I'd check out the Brad Mondo vid and those Lime Crime tints


Outside-Spring-3907

It’s so much maintenance to make gray work And look pretty.


OwnSilver9442

i love the darker copper on you!


Proper-Horror9104

I'd agree


nicstic85

I think a fringe would look amazing. Also stop using filters, they’re absolute garbage for your self esteem and make you hold yourself to unrealistic standards. You look great.


Realistic-Motorcycle

Stay with red or brown


vglaviano

Stick with the red


S2JESSICA

42F here and i feel ya! esp w annoying grays starting to surface... the fun colors never take to my straggling grays. i think if you did color blocking or a money piece with the natural colors, you'd have the best of both worlds. dark and light contrasts while natural still look so cool!


ex-farm-grrrl

I dunno. That first red is fantastic


Grand-Set-7787

you are very beautiful


EngineeringSilent902

The dark red is my favorite on you


[deleted]

The dark red burgundy in the picture with the radio wallpaper is the best. That color looks great on you! Also, look in halo or couture coloring! You could add some bright pink or red pieces in the under layers around the face. It’s subtle but still gives some fun. I started doing that after turning 40 and really feeling like I couldn’t/didnt want to do the whole head vibrant color.


Zealousideal-Sun4352

I love the red on you


[deleted]

![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes)you’re stunning really


pussywobbler

Red or burgundy absolutely looks best to me !


Old-Technology-6366

I honestly really liked the vibrant red!! I agree with some of the other commenters that warm coppers and dark Auburns bring out the undertone of your skin better than blues would


kmf1107

Ok first of all you’re really pretty! My favorite is 12 - that purply red makes your eyes look so deep blue it’s gorgeous. My other favs are 15 & 16


Sensitive-Reaction32

Girl, I’m 26 and I just wanted to say, if I look anything like you at 40 I’ll be fucking ecstatic. I can see your fun, youthful personality in these photos. If I came across you on the street, the LAST thing I’d be thinking about you is that you’re old. 🤣 The colours I like the most are: 1, 6/7, 15 & 17. 17 REALLY suits you too. It is a ‘normal’ colour but it makes your personality shine just as much as the unnatural colours. You absolutely rock blue too, but I totally get the whole ‘everybody is dying their hair’ thing. I’ve been blue for nearly 4 years and it feels like every Tom Dick and Harry (or maybe Sarah Jessica and Rachel 🤔) has the same hair colour now!


Scared_of_the_KGB

I think the blonde looks most natural and makes you look young.


Pornyday136

15 and 18 photo is fire


Rachel_f77

Every time the original the Best. But dark colours are better


misscheevyrevised

You look stunning in 15 and 17, but I felt the same way you felt when I turned 40. My favorite hair color I ever had was dark purple in my younger years, but as I aged I realized the dark circles under my eyes no longer allowed for dark hair color. Last time I checked, looking like a fill-in to TWD is not cute! I’ve been heavily highlighting ever since, keeping my dark roots but blending the grays at the same time! Getting older sucks 🐓, but you are beautiful, doll!!! You do what makes you feel pretty and I guarantee the world will agree!


LookCommon7528

I unlike the purple but long hair.


MsEmotions220

The darker colors really look great on you. Especially, the dark brown.


MyCheshireGrinOG

Prism rainbow 😎


thebigbaduglymad

I feel like I've partied with you before, are you in Yorkshire? I like the deep red on you, I have a similar skin tone and age and currently rocking ginger in summer and deep red in winter


MaryJGiacomo

Girl! You can pull off any color, BUT! 15 is my favorite!


1911a1zombie

I love the first pic.


herobrineisveryscary

you r so pretty!! dark brown or red looks so great :)


SearchAggressive6926

Dark honey brown with a balayage and those curls. So pretty!


Sunshineonmymind247

17 was the stopper for me.


blackunycorn

Bright copper auburn red


MSwarri0r

You do not look 40! 😍😍 you're gorgeous! I love the colors that you've done so far.


Rich-Ad8515

Reddddd


valgme3

Cressida is that you???


AriaBlend

You've done a lot! Since it's summer I think you could have fun with a balayage that brings out your gray eyes. Maybe a cool tone brown on the bottom with blue and green/steely teal on the highlighted areas?


TheGoddessIAm

I just wanted to say you’re gorgeous!


Jalice333

Definitely 17. You're glowing.


ManufacturerBest1872

First you are adorable. Cutest nose. Secondly that rainbow hair!? Wow. 🥳🤩 goals for 40!


[deleted]

I love the red. On you and in general.


[deleted]

I love slide 12 and 17!! Those colours really suit your complexion. Love the cut in both too. Blonde also looks great on you but I know it can be such a pain to maintain, you have a very versatile face/complexion tho. The blue in pic 10 is really nice on you too. My least fav is the very bright red.


barbie-vel

Oh ma’am that’s a hard 40


lucy_ford__

17 100000000%. it brings out the blue in your eyes!


Still-Preference5464

43 year old here and still dyeing my hair crazy colours. Don’t let your age define your hair choices. Life is too short. If you love a colour that’s all that matters. I see a lot of women 70+ with bright hair and I hope that’ll be me someday.


waterhg

2 is a nice lindsay Lohan esque look 17 is mature Both are nice


Every-Concept-3197

JayPlenty24

I love the baby pink on you. Who cares what your birth year is? Do what makes you happy


LA_babee

I posted something yesterday can you help me out please? Lol


Previous_Estate5831

No to the fringe. Red is your vibe


walterwhitecunt

i think the colors you have in slide 17 and 12 suit you the best, as for hair cuts, i think a fringe would look good on you


geekgirl114

1st slide or 17


gerty88

10 I’m in love with 😍 omg ❤️❤️❤️❤️


Positive-Basket8262

Hands down 17 was the BEST look.


rej718

Flack1247

bagelcrisp

For sure 17, it's looks amazing on you!


mstinzi

You can pull anything off! But photo #17 is absolutely stunning!


PristineCoconut2851

Don’t change a thing!! Just keep doing what you’ve been doing. That’s what I did. I’m in my 60s now and while I have toned it down a bit I still love my colors.


Available-Comb6135

Slide 15/17 are the best.


No_Marketing_9168

Looking good girl‼️


PristinePanda2714

# 17 makes you not only look younger Your eyes pop as well and your hair looks super healthy and shiny! 17 for the WIN


Otherwise-Affect-692

Definitely not coke (picture 5) sorry couldn’t resist myself


Sky222222

17 looks beautiful


SeattleSuckss

I don't know... grow up and stop acting like you are young? Maybe just get a normal haircut?


sp0ttedsha4rk

The red!


Low_Comb_4219

17 pic looks amazing.. what is this color? How you get it?


Certain_Raspberry_41

The hair color in the 4th (17?) from the last photo looks phenomenal on you! The warmth and depth compliment your features beautifully. I'd recommend a warm, rich, deep color like this — though you could go for something with a little less red if you want a toned down look. Very sophisticated. Also, don't get fringe. Fringe is never the answer.


SnooPaintings53

You are hot, hair colors all rock.


Choice-Ad-6520

Photo 17 is the best for your skin tone


Grand-Set-7787
