There are approximately 140 million people in the world who are natural redheads. If you think that this is a lot, then you are mistaken: in fact, this hair color is the least common. And if you didn’t get this shade from nature, it doesn’t matter - with modern technologies you can get a natural red shock without harm to your hair!

We will talk about this in our material.

Who suits red hair?

Alan Edwards, colorist for L'Oréal Professionnel Products in Scotland, warns girls who decide to go fiery red: “A consultation with a colorist is necessary before any coloring, but in the case of red, this is especially important! In order to, it is necessary to take into account the color of the skin, eyes, face shape, the peculiarity of the pigment in the hair and their moisture content, personal style, willingness to maintain color and lifestyle in general. For example, if you prefer to spend time outdoors, it will be difficult to maintain a vibrant shade because the pigment molecules are smaller and fade faster in the open air. This is just one of those tips that you can only hear from a professional colorist and are unlikely to learn on your own or on the Internet!”

As the master says, one of the most important criteria by which you can understand which shade of redhead suits you is skin color:

• Owners of a pinkish shade are especially lucky - they can safely experiment with any red and be sure that their new hair color will attract attention!
• With olive skin tone, colorists recommend paying attention to chestnut and golden shades of red.
• For those with dark skin, reddish-red colors are suitable.
• Light shades of red will go well with pale skin.

You can go the other way and choose a shade of red to match your eye color.

• Since ancient times, the combination of red hair and green eyes has been considered magical, so if your eye color resembles an emerald, dye your hair in bright red and copper shades!
• Chestnut and reddish shades are suitable for brown eyes.
• Light (gray and blue) eyes, as you might guess, will go with the natural tones of red.

Also, following the slander of the colorist, the red color should be chosen depending on the natural shade of the hair.

• Reddish-red and dark red shades are suitable for dark hair, in other cases, the hair will have to be discolored too much, which will negatively affect their condition.
• Owners of light brown hair and blondes are practically unlimited in choice and may prefer shades from golden to dark, depending on their color type.

If you are sure of the decision, then mentally imagine your new image. As accurate as possible, in every detail.

In addition to external changes, material costs will also occur. You will probably have to update your wardrobe, cosmetics, if they do not harmonize with the new hair color.

• If you plan to paint with the master, then in advance study hairdressers, read reviews, choose a salon. For a better understanding, come to the chosen master and discuss the nuances of the future procedure. Explain what you want, what color and its shade you have chosen. It is important that the person speaks the same language with you. There are situations when the master listens to the client, but in the end he does it his own way, guided by his own experience. As a result, the client remains dissatisfied and subsequently makes negative advertising to the entire salon where this stylist works.
• Before staining one month before the start of preparation for the procedure. Purchased masks, balms, hair conditioners, and natural ones are also suitable. They are easy to make at home literally from improvised means. Hair will be smoothed, become soft, elastic. The paint will lie flat without stains. It is recommended to cut the ends and profile the hair before painting. On flowing hair, bright color looks great!

And yet, how to make a red color out of a blond?

But if you have already made a responsible decision, you want to change, and, it’s easier for you! For better absorption of paint, hairdressers often resort to complete discoloration of the strands, and only then give them the desired color. Discoloration is already there, it remains only to choose the right shade.

Brown-haired women in this matter will also not be difficult to apply a yellow-red color to dark hair. In some cases, tint shampoos are used to just add redheads to their natural color. When the paint begins to wash out from the hair of a brown-haired woman, a cardinal difference in colors will not be noticeable, only the amount of redness will gradually decrease. But this problem will be solved regular touch-up. If you have dyed with professional paint, it can also be supported with a tint balm to hold the desired color.

Change is not scary, most importantly, do not forget to take care of your hair and maintain their health and beauty.

April 21, 2014

The stereotype that exists among the people that red hair is not just a shade of hair, but a sign of a perky character, is partly true. People with fiery hair are able to be in the center of attention by their presence alone. And many ladies want to try this perky hair color on themselves. But before deciding to dye your hair, it is better to find out who does not.

Probably everyone will agree that all owners of red hair, donated by mother nature, have almost the same temperament. These are, as a rule, positive and bright personalities who do not lose heart under any circumstances. However, those who are painted in shades of bright red are also not without such qualities.

It is worth noting that fiery curls are not for everyone. In order to color your hair in the desired shade, you need to make sure that it will combine with your skin type, face shape and other parameters, including even lifestyle. So who does red hair suit? And how to choose the right shade? We will talk about this now.

• Choosing a shade of red hair depending on skin tone

Interestingly, skin type is almost the most important criterion for choosing the right color from a palette of fiery hair shades.

So, for example, girls with pinkish skin will suit almost any shade. These lucky women can experiment both with light dye to give red hair, and with dark ones.

Owners of olive skin tone, stylists recommend golden chestnut shades of red.

With very dark skin, hair should be dyed in rich red-red colors.

For ladies with pale skin, light red tones are more suitable, closest to natural shades.

• Choosing a shade of red hair depending on eye color

Since ancient times, it was believed that the owners of red hair, and even with green eyes, have a special bewitching power. Red-haired beauties attracted everyone's attention, and therefore they were even accused of being associated with evil spirits. Therefore, if your eyes are green, then feel free to dye your curls in light red, copper and dark chestnut tones. Then you will undoubtedly earn a reputation as a mysterious charmer.

Brown eyes are most successfully combined with chestnut and bright red shades of red.

Girls with gray and blue eyes can allow for natural red tones. These are golden, peach, sand and light copper hair dye options.

• Choosing a shade of red hair, depending on the natural shade of the hair

Who is red hair suitable for? You can answer this question based on the type of your own hair color, inherited from your parents.

On dark hair, wine, cherry and dark red tones are possible. Lighter tones will require additional discoloration of the curls, which will negatively affect their condition.

Fair-haired girls are allowed golden, chestnut, amber and all dark shades of red.

For blonde girls, there are no restrictions on dyeing strands red. All tones from a diverse fiery palette will do.

Who is contraindicated in red hair color?

Red hair color is not suitable for everyone - this is an axiom that becomes obvious in practice. Let's say you have:

• White hair

When dyeing hair that has lost its pigment with age in red, do not expect to see it in its intended form. Most likely, you will be unpleasantly surprised when you see your new color. Do not experiment on your own, but trust a professional colorist!

• Mimic wrinkles and age folds around the face

Bright shades of red color clearly indicate age. In addition, they attract the attention of others to all the imperfections of your skin.

• Freckles and age spots

As in the previous paragraph, juicy shades of red will focus on freckles.

A few words about dyeing hair in shades of red

If your strands are only a couple of colors different from red, then hair coloring will be as comfortable as possible for you. It will not be difficult to turn light-colored curls into an orange flame. The situation is quite different with brunettes.

Experienced stylists recommend chestnut or dark red shades of red for dark-haired girls. But is it really impossible to try to dye your hair in lighter colors? Of course you can, but it will require sacrifice. Hair bleaching is the only correct answer in this case. But this procedure (and subsequent dyeing in red color) aggressively affects the curls themselves, so if you often dye your hair or are fond of styling devices, then it is better to refuse such a procedure. Or visit a hairdressing salon, where a specialist will select an individual sparing coloring program for you.

What is the best dye to use?

There are two types of red hair coloring - it is the use of artificial dye (hair dye) or natural (henna). For greater effect, you can add other natural ingredients. For example, if you add beetroot juice to henna, then the hair after dyeing will light up with bright red flowers. An infusion of chamomile will help saturate the color of the hair in light red shades.

Now having learned who suits the red hair color, turning into a fiery beauty will not be difficult for you. Good luck in your endeavors and the enthusiastic views of the people around you!

You can often hear the saying that red hair characterizes a person. And the truth is, not every girl dares to become the object of everyone's attention.

Who should not experiment with the red range?

First of all, stylists advise avoiding bright shades for those who have a large percentage of gray hair. This color is quite capricious and may not stay on strands that have lost their pigment. The presence of wrinkles and age folds is also a reason to refrain from painting in red colors, which can not only reveal the true age of a woman, but also emphasize all the defects in appearance. In addition, fiery tones make an additional emphasis on freckles and age spots. Therefore, if you are trying to hide them, the red color is not the best solution. It should be added that damaged and overdried hair will not be able to keep such a rich color in its original form for a long time and will require frequent repetition of the toning procedure.

Basic coloring rules

In the event that you have decided to try red for the first time, we recommend using tint mousses or tinting masks, which are completely removed after several sessions of washing your hair. In the presence of a dark initial hair color, it is necessary to first carry out a lightening procedure by several tones to obtain the desired shade. Maintaining the saturation and brightness of red requires frequent coloring, so to maintain the health of the curls, it is better to give preference to products without ammonia. Owners of strands of red color should show a certain moderation in makeup. First of all, the color of the eyebrows should be in harmony with the hair. It is better to emphasize the eyes with brown eyeliners, pencils and mascara, as well as use soft and natural shades of shadows, blush and lipstick.

Proper care at home

To maintain a well-groomed and healthy appearance of the hair, as well as the brightness of the color, red-haired girls need to provide the curls with proper care. As a rule, hair care begins with choosing the right shampoo. Today, manufacturers offer a huge selection of products in this category, the most suitable of which will be products for colored strands. Some of them are highlighted in a separate line, thanks to the ability not only to maintain the red color, but also to enhance its saturation and brightness.

Homemade masks or serums based on natural henna, with the addition of cinnamon, cherry or pomegranate extracts will become natural products for hair care of this color range. Care products that include alcohol, peroxide or ammonium - substances that destroy artificial pigment - should be avoided.

During the period of active sun, strands of red shades should be protected from the harmful effects of direct rays. The same rule applies to visiting the solarium, sauna, pool. Salon procedures, such as lamination or keratinization, will help to maintain a bright and saturated color for a long time.
