I'm thinking about making a drastic change with my hair. I want something like this colour.



But I've never been THAT red before. Is it really difficult to maintain? Will I have to have this lion's mane done every couple of weeks because it fades so much?

Oh, and do you have to bleach first to go that bright dark red??

Maybe I need to change the thread title.

I go bright bright red a lot. With my hair, my stylist does have to bring the color up, so she turns it blond. Then she puts in the red.

It is amazing. Red does wash out quick, but if you use a sulfite free shampoo, it will last longer. I also don't wash my hair everyday. About twice a week.
I reccomend using Kenra. They have a sulfite free line that really helps the color to last longer.

Since I had my curls relaxed I cant put a color in for four weeks. It's driving me nuts. My hair looks so...regular.

Use Kenra, it will save your investment.

HAWT!

I think it would be a fantastic colour on u

Don't dye the pubes, too, though....just sayin'.

So, you pretty much need to bleach first to get a good result?

I don't think my hair can handle that. It's very long and thick, bleaching the whole thing would be a disaster I think.

That's a nice colour...but I'm really kinda fascinated with that bright, vivid red hair.

Or maybe I am heading into a mid life crisis or something.

JustErin said:

get a red car instead

JustErin said:

or maybe you're suddenly becoming a giant bitch...

Ocean said:

I used to do a dark auburn or sometimes burgundy color on my hair - it did fade quite a bit as time went on, but I could pretty much get away with having it colored about every six weeks.

I hate red cars!

roodboi said:

Ya, if you're not coming over to fuck me, you can forget it. Go fuck yourself.

Ocean said:

You didn't listen, did you ...

Oh, another question.

My roots are almost 100% grey. Will this cause touch ups to be pink?

JustErin said:

he should have atleast offered you a load...

ZombieKitten said:

I'm working on the bangs first!

roodboi said:

Oh he did...just not the way I wanted.


Dude, that typo cracks me up every single time I see it.

JustErin said:

I have light brown hair, and red has usually looked pretty vibrant over it... not quite cherry red, but still.. I think it will still look greta over a dark hair colour.... it'll come out under lights and in the sun.. pretty

JustErin said:

it might!

JustErin said:

I would think it would make the roots a definate lighter shade
