I Want to Dye My Hair

It has been on my mind all year, I want to try all kinds of colors from crazy to casual. After 6 long months of consideration I settled on a brand and started telling everyone about it. At first all I got was praise and even a couple you go girls but then my mother gave me her 2 cents. She said: I think you may want to slow down on dying your hair. I did when I was a teen and it had me f#cked up for 2 months and wasn't even my color. What was I thinking a black women my color going caramel? Then I tried it again in college and it f#cked me up even more. I just thought I'd tell you since you are my child you might be allergic to but I hope it goes well.
Even after hearing this I still want to give it ago but afraid that could be me to.
