red hair color contains image

I have naturally brown hair and I was wondering how long would it stay in if I dyed it a natural red hair color?
Answer
Red color tends to fade the quickest. If you take really good care of your newly colored hair, you can probably get it to last for 3 months. Sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners are the easiest on colored hair. A lot of brands claim to be safe on color-treated hair, but reality is, they contain harsh chemicals that will strip your color.
In my opinion, the best shampoo/conditioner for red-dyed hair is 'Healthy Sexy Hair's Reinvent Color Care' It's really gentle, and it will leave your hair super soft. It is a bit pricey if your used to using drug-store brands, but the payoff is well worth it.
If salon brands are out of your price range, try Aveeno's Pure Renewal or L'Oreal Evercream. They're both also sulfate-free and will be nice to your newly dyed hair.
You should avoid using heat on colored hair as well. Blow dryers and curling irons will dry your hair, and dry hair fades a lot quicker than healthy hair.
Also, don't try to extend your color by leaving it in longer or adding more dye than needed. It will just wreck your hair quicker. I would personally recommend getting your hair done by a professional (especially if this is a new experience for you), because it's very easy to mess up with those boxed colors. if you are dying at home, be sure to pick the correct color for your hair. Since your hair is brown, you may want to strip (or bleach) your hair first, for the best color depth. You can dye dark hair red without stripping it, but it won't turn a vibrant red - it will be more subtle. This is why I say going to a salon is best. There's a lot of factors that can change the way your color will come out, and it's best to know what's what before using a permanent color.
I hope this helped out some. Good luck!

What's the best way to remove permanent red hair color from naturally blonde hair?
Shannon
My hair is colored medium red/brown, but I'm wanting to go closer to my natural color...light blonde...or maybe even slightly darker. I know i can just go to a salon and ask for help, but I'm trying to avoid that if possible. ;o)
Thanks for any advice!
Answer
You can do one of two things, to remove most of that dye. Links have been moved, might have to type them out.
1. By using Tide detergent with shampoo
http://www.wikihow.com/Remove-Dye-from-Hair
or
2. By shampooing you hair mix with a bit of Dawn.

Here's an example what hair stripping will do to your hair.
It is worst than hair dyes. "I accidentally dyed my hair this awful black, stripped it, and now it is this crunchy crispy mess!"
Hair strippers are chemical treatments which are intended to strip out artificial color pigment with less risk or damage to the hair. The chemicals used are called reducing agents.
Certain 'metal' strippers containing sodium sulphoites are sold for reducing hair dyed with metallic dyes, as these dyes react violently with tint stripper containing hydrogen peroxide-the subsequent reaction may cause so much heat that the hair gets dissolved.
Google hair dyes & cancer also. There are those who tan & smoke all their lives & do not get cancer, but there are those 2nd hand & 3rd hand smoke who do and are currently on oxygen because they can't breath or have cancer. Same with hair dyes.
Here's a new article I found re: henna, which is supposed to be better for you than reg. box dye. It's a good read!

Example of one who's hair is falling and stopped growing:
"my hair had been bleached many times and can't grow past a certain length
its also falling out . i stopped bleaching it.
i just need to add lenght! but if i can stop it from falling out..that be great too"

I know hair. I have over 4 decades of hair know-how. I have silky, shiny, soft, smooth very healthy hair down to my knees. Previously damaged by perming & dyeing in the 80's & 90's. I've known people in their 30's whose hair stopped growing from ironing their hair in the 70's.
