[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Red is a hard color to get right when you have to start dying it. See a lot of orange, brass and burgundy. [/quote] This. I mentioned upthread that I started dying my hair in my 40s because my hair started to look more dark blonde or light brown than red, and it really changed my coloring and I didn't know how to complement it. So I've been dying for 4 years now and it's tricky! I've found it goes best if I lighten it up a little (not too much, I don't want to damage my hair) and stick with a neutral red (not too coppery, but also not blue). I am able to mostly approximate my old hair color this way. But it doesn't look the same as my old natural red, because it gets that dullness that dyed hair gets after a couple weeks. Like it's not so much that the red fades (at least on my hair) but that it starts to look kind of flat and dull in a way my hair never used to. I miss the way my hair used to look really multi-faceted.[/quote]
