What a little time does and a little dye

So it hasn't been that long since I dyed my hair a very orangy brown/blonde kind of color. The color has faded a bit but there still is a huge difference from the dark brown I use to be! The before picture is the one to the left (obviously the darker shade!) and the after picture is the one on the right! It's been four months since I dyed my hair and I haven't cut the ends since May. I'm in serious need of a trimming! But I like my color and wont change it until I go back to my original hair! By now I already have 2 inch roots growing in but I love it because now I can achieve the ombre effect in my hair. Hopefully it works out! I'll let you guys know in a few months!
