Answer
I'm a natural ginger, and I hate the word!
Well, there's the obvious, like redhead, or you can really think about the shade of red your character is. If she has light red hair, then strawberry blonde would be best. If it is darker and more on the side of brownish, then use auburn, or if even darker then bronze. Bronze has a slight golden tinge to it. If you are looking to be unique, then definitely use Titian. Titian was a painter who depicted redhead women. Another way to describe ginger hair using art is Pre-Raphaelite, which was a group of artists who painted only red haired women in the 19th Century. Flaming, fiery red hair are also words to describe ginger hair. If you're thinking of your character with slightly unnatural ginger hair, so dyed a little redder than usual then berry coloured, or dark berry coloured, is perfect, or scarlet if particularly bright. Copper is another obvious one to describe less orangey redheads, or rusty.
Maybe cinnamon, copper red. Red hair glows in the sunlight, so think of beautiful metaphors to describe that, such as auburn hair that seemed to glow like a halo in the late afternoon sun.
You can also think of how to describe how the hair hangs, or what texture it is. Most redheads have very thick hair, so instead of just using the word hair, use words like locks, or tresses, or even dreads.
You can even use the name of your character to describe its hair colour. Here are a few names which mean redhead;
Read, Reed, Derry, Reid, Rhys, Red, Pirro, Russell, Rusti or Rusty, Scarlett or Scarlet.

Answer
Colour effects to hair, Mascaro' was used in the 19th century by both sexes to cover the few gray strands & the technique has enjoyed a comeback in the 21st century. Now different brands are available in the marke Hair. It comes in a clear plastic mascara tube gorgeous colors: Champagne, Bronze, Copper, and Bordeaux. For example, if you are blonde, then try Champagne or Bronze. If you have brown hair, Bronze or Copper are recommended. If your hair is red, they also suggest trying the Bronze or Copper. If your hair is dark brown or black, then try Bordeaux, Copper or Bronze. I think you can try any combination of these colors and have a ball experimenting, no matter what your hair color. Some pretty exciting looks will come. You can brush the mascara on your hair wherever you like, and the large round brush makes a nice feathery effect on the hair. You can also load up the brush with color, then run it through your thumb and forefinger, pinch a small section of hair stroke the color up on the hair.
