Members 4Kenoath Posted January 27, 2007 Members Share Posted January 27, 2007 Mint...it's more distinctive and brings up the blonde better.Otherwise a dark one like tortoise shell, but I still prefer the 3-ply mint actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jb1911 Posted January 27, 2007 Members Share Posted January 27, 2007 You don't have a "both" option. That's the one I would choose. By the way, what's with the tortoise shell these days? Back in the '60s and '70s TS guards made you a huge dork or a country guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
