how long does red hair dye take to fade?

dee

i'm thinking about dying my hair a DARK REDDISH PURPLE. [dying it myself, i found a colour i like in the Garnier brand].
how long does it last? and does it fade to a weird brownish colour?
[my hair right now is dark brown]

and while i'm at it.. how long do i have to wait before i can dye over it, if need be?

thanks a lot! :)

Answer
Red usually fades really fast. Most of the time you have to pre-lighten (bleach) the hair before applying because the red will not show up on darker hair, or previously dyed hair. It will most likely fade to an orangey color. If you need to dye over it, wait a few weeks so that you don't completely damage your hair.
Also, you should try this http://www.sallybeauty.com/Unred-Colo-Drabber/ARDELL17,default,pd.html?cgid=Hair05-07 you put a few drops in with the dye and it will help your hair from fading to that nasty orange color so quickly. I used it when I had red hair and it worked good.

do semi permanent red hair dyes fade to your natural color or do they leave residue?

G.

i'm waiting for my natural hair to grow out and i wanted to use semi-permanent colors while i wait. i want to use semi-permanent red and i know that permanent red dyes fade into a brown/copper color. Sooo i was wondering for semi-permanent red hair dye, does it:
A) fade to your natural hair color
B) fade into the brown/copper color
C) fade into the brown/copper color and then fade into your natural hair color

Thankyou so much for whoever answers!

Answer
Red dye is the hardest to go out. I have semi permanently and permanently died my hair reds. Anyways the answer.

D) None of the above red's fade to lighter reds like auburn color copper if you're lucky but permanent means that they won't fade so permanent red's should stay the same or fade a bit to a few lighter shades. Semi Permanent will do about the same light red or copper.
