my boyfriend and i spilt up a few days ago, we havent really dicussed it, i just said it was over and that was that, i dont really want to go into details about it, but i had good reasons for it though. i don't want to ever go back, but i have long black hair and he LOVES the long black hair, so im thinking of dying it blonde under neath and getting my lip pierced. (he hates blondes by the way)

is this a first good start to get over someone? and also any good tips for how to make black go blonde.

xx thanks in advance.

TasteofIndia agony auntHi there, sweetness...

Well, I know of lots of people who go through a break up, then revamp themselves as a confidence boost and a middle finger to their ex. And hey, it can really work for some people, make them feel better and give them that extra pep in their step.

I would say this, only do a drastic change if YOU want to do it. If you don't want to dye your hair, stick with black and find something else to do that makes you feel healed and empowered. But, by the same token... hair is hair. And what the hell, if you want to do a dramatic change, why not? Hair grows back, and it's easy enough to go from blonde back to black. As for how to get from black to blonde - DON'T DO IT YOURSELF! If you want to look really amazing, go to a professional and get them to do the job right!

Your lip pierced, to that I can only say: find a completely clean, sterile piercer who can do the piercing right and safely.

But the best way in getting over someone won't just be changing your outward appearance... it'll be distracting yourself and doing things for YOU to make you feel better and get back on top. Time heals all wounds!

Good luck, sweetness!!

peroxide I guess, but I don't think changing yourself specifically to something he doesn't like is good for you as a way to get over him. Changing your appearance because you'd like to and it would make you feel good is good :)
