Do you prefer Dusty as a blonde or a redhead Lately, I have been seeing more and more pictures of Dusty as a redhead. I really can't make up which hair color I like better.
What about everyone else?

I've read in Cilla's bio she says she's Auburn!......a natural head of red hair looks very attractive to me!.....love Dusty's red as I do the Actresses Moira Shearer, Anna Massey, and Shirley-Anne Field

Yes members of my family were born with red hair but if they didn't like it they could have had it dyed - they didn't!!!!
Also some famous movie stars were red heads.
Also I think perhaps the word you are looking for is irrelevant - no?
I don't have a dictionary on me but no I think the word is irreverent in this context but I'm no prof of English so who knows (or cares for that matter).
I don't intend to disturb you with what I think was a fairly normal observation - I know Anne of Green Gables did not want to be a redhead and neither does a colleague who I work alongside (she is a redhead). I don;t know many redheads but it remains true that I do not know of anyone who wanted to be a redhead Some women do dye their hair red but generally not for long imo. |

Yes, it seems like Mary learned to love Dusty and all she'd achieved. She went out blonde and proud and show stopping with her greatest hits blasting out. There's a book coming out that says that her funeral was not in accordance with her wishes but it sounds right to me. A friend of mine who lives in Henley went to it and told me it was just fantastic just like Dusty.
Ever since we met you've had a hold on me. It's crazy but it's true... |

I hope this doesn't sound heartless, because I certainly don't mean it to sound that way. From all I read, Mary O'Brien wanted to go out blonde as Dusty Springfield with a big specular funeral.
Bless you Dusty!

She looked fine red, blonde or grey but she went out blonde. Whatever she liked best is OK by me. But OK she looked coolest and most iconic as a blonde back in the 1960s. I like her more relaxed 'It Begins Again' look too.

I've seen some redheaded pictures of Dusty when she was with the Springfields Noidea.
Since I am not British, I cannot answer your question if they were once the biggest selling act in GB.

It was before my time but I thought The Springfields were the biggest selling act in England? Although she may have been blonde by then? |

Dusty may have been a red head in the early 60's for awhile when with the Springfields, but she certainly was blonde when she made it big, unlike Cilla and Lulu!

I'll just say that red hair coloring is sold so I'm sure women do want to be red heads. I have given it some thought myself, but tried on a red wig once and didn't think it was flattering on me.
However, we are wondering away from my original question about Dusty, although an interesting comment was made about Cilla.

Are you SURE you've got othe right word?
Still think your statement is out of order, just what hair colour are YOU I wonder?

Oh yes I think I've got the right word. You reply was relevant to hair colour debate but as I said that I can't think of any women who WANT to be red haired, your response was to point out that you know some women who ARE red haired - that makes it IRREVERENT in my book...that is what I mean't even if my use of the word is proven to be wrong
......and you use my favourite AVATAR - if you ever think of changing it let me know.......[Now THAT! is irrelevant] |

Definitely Blonde!
It makes such a good contast in the black&white footage with her eyes.
I could be splitting hairs (sorry, I couldn't resist.. ), but from the colour images of Dusty I've seen from the 60's she seemed to change the shade of blonde...from platinum-blonde to warm gold-blonde and every other shade in-between. The up-keep for maintaining dark root-free blonde tresses must be tiring - and expensive!
