What to do about my hair...

This is my hair currently. It’s a lob right now, and I’m at a crossroads of what to do... cut it back to a blunt bob with baby bangs... grow it out again... or go lighter or go completely dark!

So this is my hair when I get a blunt bob (which has been what my hair has been for almost a year now)

And I love it! So much! (This was back in may) But a part of me misses pig tails with my long hair...

My hair was a mess here because of a photoshoots and my roots were growing in.. but the long hair was great!

And now that I’ve shown people what my hair looked like when I had dark (almost but not quite black) hair...

I don’t know what to do! I’m thinking about going brunette for the winter while growing my hair out, and if I don’t like it I can go back to blonde and cut it off again... because my stylist is amazing!!

I need some unbiased sources (and no, my bangs are staying, I hate my forehead lol)
