Will lightening my hair to a blondish color help me get a bright red hair color?

Angelica

I have browmish-blackish hair with blonde highlights. I am wondering if I lighten my hair to a light brownish color or even Blonde will it give me a brighter alburn/red hair color? If yes, what bleaching product should I use and from where? Also how much? My hair is an inch or so past my shoulders. I have very thick hair. Thanks!

Answer
I think it will be brighter. I've dyed my hair red before and bleaching it first really worked out well. I personally didn't want to bleach my hair so it would be blonde. I did it so it would take the color better than my black hair. If you go to WalMart or Drug Mart there's normally a bleach/dye kit called Clairol Born Blonde and get the one with the lady with the short hair. Remember this is used to lighten your hair and you might need two boxes.

Where to buy good quality red hair dye?

Neira

Hi everyone,

I would like to know where to buy good quality red hair color. At the moment, my hair is longer then shoulder-length. The color is medium ash brown with 2-3 inches light tips (colored with L'Oreal's Medium Ombre). The only reason I colored it like that is because I am 31 and I feel like I shouldn't do crazy hairdos or colors anymore, but all this time I am feeling like something is missing. So, I decided to put red over it, so that my brown hair is actually auburn and my tips are screaming crazy red, with a few highlights here and there.
I have problems finding a good red hair color. I've just ordered a jar of Manic Panic's RED PASSION, but that color is semi-permanent and I want something that's going to last at least 5-6 weeks.
Does anyone have an advice on where to find similar hair color that is permanent? Or do you think that if I mix some regular (store-bought, for example: L'Oreal's Feria or similar) red color, it would last longer?

Thank you!

Answer
are you looking for permanent or semi/demi permanent? If you're looking for permanent, Garnier, L'oreal and Clairol all make pretty good at home box dyes. I've provided a Garnier colour swatch below.
if you want a semi-permanent dye, or if you want to buy one and mix a little bit in with your conditioner (which is a good way to keep it from fading as fast), then Punky Colour makes a very pigmented red called 'Red Wine'.
For the best upkeep for red hair, I would use a colour safe shampoo. Seeing as shampoo strips the hair, you'll need something with no sulfates or Sodium Lareth Sulfate. A good shampoo for red-heads, ironically enough, is Redken. They make a shampoo called colour-extend (which I have), and it is very good quality. Avoid drugstore shampoos, because these contain a lot of silicone which means you'll have to use a strong cleansing shampoo to get rid of the build-up more often, which isn't good for red or any colour-treated hair.
You can purchase permanent hairdye at Walmart, Costco, CVS, Kroger, Ultah, Sally's, etc.
You can purchase Punky Colour @ Hot Topic, Sally's, etc. or online at Folica.com.

Hope this helps!

I bleached my hair last night to remove the dark hair dye I had in. How long before I can dye it again?

Okay, so I have naturally light brown hair. A year ago, I dyed my hair very dark brown-almost black. BIG WHOOPS. I have spent the last year trying to get it to fade out/ grow out and return to my natural color. I dyed it a lighter brown once, and that was about 6 months ago. It made the previous dark brown lighter, but it also made my natural roots even lighter. I wanted to get rid of the ridiculous stripe around my head from the unmatched colors, so I bought a box of Permanent Hair Color Remover from Walmart that said to recolor your hair immediately after using it. Even BIGGER mistake. It made my roots bright yellow and it faded into orange, then redish orange tips with some random brown streaks in there. I cried myself to sleep, woke up, and recolored my hair as the box had instructed. It looks a million times better, but is all over a light brown/auburn color. It still looks like a bad dye job, and I have to wear a hat to work tonight. How long should I wait before dying it a richer, slightly darker brown? My hair is not damaged... it still very healthy and silky like it has always been. I did a hot oil treatment on it earlier just incase. Also, I have never lightened my hair at all or had it bleached before last night. PLEASE HELP!!! I don't want to look this hideous, but I don't want my hair falling out either. Thank you!!!

Answer
I'm a licensed cosmetologist. Bleach and lightening products are so tricky and unpredictable sometimes. You have to be very careful when using bleach. It lightened more towards your scalp because of the heat coming from your body. Heat speeds up the process with hair chemicals. If your hair is not feeling weak or anything, go ahead and color it right now. but DO NOT bleach it or lighten it anymore. Keep strengthening it up and you should be fine. From what it sounds like, you should be ok to apply a color over your hair right now. But, be aware that the color will only change the parts where the color is light enough to go over it. Make sure you pick a color that is not ash based because often times.. it will turn your hair greenish. If you pick a red or orange base color.. you will get a lot more red than you want. haha it is going to suck up what you put on it.. and amplify it if you aren't careful. Just put a neutral color on your hair and it should be fine. Use a filler on the hair to make sure that the color is accurate. (here's a link for a filler that you can get at sally's beauty supply http://www.adiscountbeauty.com/store/products.php?product=Colorful-Neutral-Protein-Filler-16-oz.)

If you still have problems after that.. see a salon stylist and get their opinion after they examine your hair.

good luck!!

What color highlights will look the best?

Mrs. Emmet

I have dark auburn red hair and I have been wanting highlights for about a year and a half. What color would look the best? I have brown eyes and my skin is very light. Thanks for helping! = ]

Answer
I think that blonde would look the best. Or black, that would look nice with you dark auburn hair ! If not, then you can always re-dye your hair ! I would suggest to try using the washable highlights, just to try it out, and see which one you like the best. Plus if you don't like them, they wash right out ! You can get them and your local walmart most likely !

Well good luck girl !
