(+100 photo) Red hair dye

A rare for nature red hair color 👩‍🦰 is back in fashion. Beautiful red hair, with a soft golden tint, ✨ blonde, dark, fiery, is gaining popularity. 🌟 In any case, colorists say no 🙅🏻‍♀️ to uniform, flat shades.

The trend is layering, a relief pattern that gives the curls movement thanks to the play of glare.

Peculiarities

There is a legend that women with red hair are mysterious, seductive and at the same time extremely dangerous witches that no man can resist. And nowadays, the fair sex dream of possessing the secret of seduction, so they decide to change their usual appearance in order to become more vivid and noticeable.

However, the red color is fraught with many dangers, an incorrectly chosen shade negates all efforts to change, emphasizing all the flaws in appearance.

The decision about which fiery color scheme to choose must necessarily be made taking into account the color of the native hair, eyes and skin, and it is also important to take into account the lady's lifestyle and features of her character.

Red staining can be complete or partial. In the first case, the color of the hair changes completely, while painting can be either monochrome, when one shade is selected, or multi-tone - in this case, coloring involves the use of 2-15 related shades of red. With partial coloring, individual strands are colored. Most often, the curls that frame the face or the ends of the hair are dyed.

This method is good for both long and short strands.

Who is it for?

Red shades are suitable in the following cases:

• if the native hair color is not darker than dark blond, otherwise the paint will not take and even with additional discoloration it will not give a pure shade;
• owners of brown or green eyes, especially in combination with pale skin; however, fiery shades can also be suitable for brown-eyed ladies, but in this case the color will have to be chosen so that it competes with the iris;
• ladies with freckles.

Red shades will not work in such cases as:

• if women are prone to facial flushing;
• persons with vascular network and allergic rashes - red shades will only intensify their redness;
• ladies of mature age - unfortunately, such tones only draw unnecessary attention to the face and further emphasize age.

By eye color

• Red hair and brown eyes. This is a very bright, warm image - a brown-eyed woman with copper curls. Brown eyes are most often a sign of the Autumn color type. All shades of copper and gold suit them. For honey eyes, lighter, golden, caramel variations will be ideal.

• Green eyes and red hair. Against the background of a bright, copper shock, green will become even brighter and more expressive. If the skin is light, it is better to choose red, brick shades.For dark-skinned, with olive skin - honey, golden.

• Red hair and blue eyes. Blue goes well with ash, which is more light brown. But you can emphasize the blue look with bright red curls. Dark shades with red tones deepen the blue color of the iris.

• Gray eyes and red hair. Against a bright, warm background, gray will become even brighter and colder. To further emphasize and highlight the look, use black mascara and eyeliner rather.

• Red hair and black eyebrows. Women with naturally coppery, golden curls rarely have eyebrows of the same color. Therefore, there is no need to paint them in a fiery color when changing the image. Black eyebrows will work well with dark copper options. To choose a new shade for your eyebrows, be guided by the principle: the warmer, orange hair you have, the more copper you should have in your eyebrows. If your curls are colder, choose a dark, cool shade of brown for your brows.

Skin tone

To determine it yourself, you need to carefully examine the face in the mirror in natural daylight. Then you can pick up your redhead:

1. For girls with a pinkish complexion, traditional saturated red colors are suitable.
2. Warm yellow-red curls will adorn the owners of peach skin tones.
3. Natural light copper tones, titian are suitable for pale porcelain skin.
4. Terracotta, deep red, rust color and dark shades of red will suit girls with dark, olive skin.

Age

Age when choosing a hair color is rather a subjective concept. It should be based on the condition of the skin. If there are noticeable age-related changes on the face, then almost all shades of red will make them much more noticeable. Therefore, stylists advise women over 40 to pay attention to other colors. The exception is natural red-haired ladies.

Red hair dyes: what you need to know about them

Among the world's population, only 2% are naturally red. Many more people prefer to get red hair by dyeing.

This can be done using three types of dyes:

• natural type of henna, which are harmless to the hair structure, but can give a completely unpredictable shade;
• direct pigments, or the so-called physical dyes, which cover the hair with paint from above, without penetrating into its structure, they give a quick effect, but do not last long;
• chemical paints penetrate into the very structure of the hair, changing the coloring pigment.

Red shades of hair dye are varied. They can be changed depending on the season. For example, in winter, fiery red hair looks good, reminiscent of the summer heat. In spring, light red hair dye is in use, which matches the awakening nature. In summer, brown shades of red hair dye look great on your hair. And in the fall, it's time to paint in copper-red.

Also, shades of red should be selected based on skin color. The principle is simple: the darker the skin, the darker the reddish shade should be used.

A palette of shades of red

Choosing the “right” red color is complicated by the fact that there are many very different tones, and many of them do not differ at all visually. However, the opinion that all shades are the same is deeply mistaken. To notice the difference, you just need to take a couple of opposite shades - rich copper and golden with a slight reddishness.

There are dozens of such analogies, and it is thanks to this variety of the palette that the impression is created that the redhead fits the face of absolutely any woman. Let us dwell in more detail on the most popular shades of fiery color in coloristics.

Copper

This is a classic variation and is considered to be a clean warm tinge of red. Such a shade can be easily obtained on any hair no darker than light brown. If the native strands are black or dark brown, then here we will try preliminary lightening.

Auburn

This color is obtained when a copper tone is combined with purple, which is perceived as a rather complex tone, but it does not require any preliminary discoloration. The tone is suitable for natural colors from dark blond and darker.

Light red

It is obtained by mixing blue and gold colors. This tone is very delicate, usually well suited to blondes by nature, on the rest of the hair it needs lightening to yellow.

Fiery red

This color is suitable for those who like to look creative, bold and daring. It does not belong to the natural color palette, so it will be quite difficult to remove it from the curls, especially in the cold blonde colors.

To achieve this color, you need to do a preliminary bleaching to a white-yellow color, even if your native hair is naturally light blond.

Brown-red

Otherwise, this color is called golden chestnut. It looks quite natural on the strands, especially if the woman has dark skin. To apply this color scheme, no preliminary bleaching is required, it fits well even on the natural base of dark hair.

Red-blonde

This is a very natural shade that suits women of a cold color type the most. At the same time, the color is considered quite capricious and is taken without problems exclusively on clean blond curls. It is better for everyone else not to get involved with a similar color scheme, since it is almost impossible to get it on the hair of other tones.

Golden copper

This is a rather warm and feminine color that has many interesting overflows. A rich shade fits best on light and medium-blond strands, but brown-haired women need preliminary lightening of the strands with the help of strong oxidants.

Red-pink

This is a very effective color, but not every manufacturer has it. However, an experienced colorist in a beauty salon can easily achieve the desired color scheme on the hair, but it is much more difficult to do this at home. It should be borne in mind that toning in reddish-pink requires obligatory lightening before blonde, otherwise the pink notes will begin to be lost in the reddish color scheme.

Amber

This color of curls, like the shade of a stone, is a rather broad concept. It is characterized by a yellowish-pearl overflow with light caramel notes. It is easiest to create such a color on light and light brown strands, it sets off dark eyes especially well.
