I'm a writer myself and I understand how you feel about changing a character that you have worked with for a long time!. You're just used to how they are!. You will miss the hair but if you feel it will be better for your story then you have to take a chance and make the change!.

I have noticed the dark haired vampire beauty trend as well!. I say be out of the box!. Be the person who changes it up!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It could change the character!. You could think of it this way - if you dyed your hair - would you feel like a different person!? Just like people say people with certain eye colors act differently - the same with hair color goes!. Every thing you change about your character is important, even if you get down to the tiniest details of whether or not they paint their nails!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
