    Yeah I gotta say Wokka, the combination of your two chosen colours is perfect. The hot auburn really looks great without taking the eye away from the amaranthine. Fantastic. Would be great if you could catch the silver highlights in a photo. I'm interested in what they look like at the right angle.

    cheers,
    Gav.

    @ Gav T.
    I took some photos in direct sunlight trying to show the silver highlights but they don't show that clearly in a photo, but trust me in person they are very visible in sunlight at the right angle.

    yes Gav the highlights are quite subtle but seen from the correct angle gives a great effect. I thoroughly recommend highlights. Bit of wudtone promotion may get me out of the naughty corner !
