How to dye my hair red.
It made me
Unique
 "The change from typical blonde bombshell to unique redhead."
How I did it: I ordered henna from Catherine Cartwright-Jones on her HennaForHair.Com website. It takes three days for the color to oxidize (darken) after you apply it. Lessons & tips: WARNING!--If you are a blonde female changing to a redhead you need to realize that men change their reactions to you! I was blonde and got a lot of attention, but after changing to red I get noticed more for my personality which takes a lot longer. I personally enjoy this! However, if you are the type that loves to be flattered and oogled at on the street then maybe you should stick with the blonde. This is the #1 disappointment in changing hair colors. ;) Resources: HennaForHair.com from Catherine Cartwright-Jones.

pretty.
How I did it: To be fair I've been dyeing my hair red for the past three years or so. I dislike natural colors and I would look ridiculous with black so I went with red. It stands out, I get tons of compliments and questions, and it makes everything I wear look fan-freaking-tastic. I buy the stuff that makes your hair look like a gigantic poofy plastic fire hydrant color, and then I throw in some black underneath and a few black streaks. I then s… Read how I did it…

Ecstatic!
How I did it: I ordered 100% pure BAQ henna from Mehandi.com. I made a gloss instead of doing a full-head application, and mixed henna paste with conditioner, half-and-half. I left it on for 40 minutes [I didn't want to go TOO red], and it washed out clean in the shower, no fuss. The first day it was very coppery... over a three-day period, after the color had oxidized, it had darkened to a rich red over my light-brown hair. Read how I did it…

How I did it: After experimenting with every color under the sun (purple, green, blue, and finally black) I decided enough was enough and I was ready to get rid of the pitch black hair I had. Well after a horrible mishap with at-home color-stripper I was left with black hair, spotted with bleach stains. Luckily my dad said he'd pay for me to dye my hair any color but black - and thus was the beginning of my red hair movement. I've been dying my hair In… Read how I did it…

How I did it: I got the Caca Marron from LUSH, and did a strand test like a good girl. Be warned. just like gauge swatches, STRAND TESTS LIE. How it looks in a cute curl will not be how it looks on your head. Having got what I thought would be a darkish coppery, I mixed up the henna, slapped it on and then wrapped it in cling film to bring out the redder tones. When I washed it off and dried my hair, I was kind of giggling at how bright and outrageous … Read how I did it…

REAL red

I want to dye my hair a deep red. A REALL almost crayon red. Not this fake…auburn brown people seem to like to call red….it’s really not.
My hair was fading
2 weeks ago
although it’s not been that long since I last dyed it, and my roots aren’t really that bad yet, so instead of using the permanent dye I usually get, I decided to buy a semi-permanent one. I thought that way I could brighten up the colour a bit, without causing my hair too much damage.
The one I used is called “Golden Flame” by Stargazer. I’m quite pleased with the results, I must say :D

Bought “red hot” today! Plus shampoo, conditioner, and even a dark brown so I can dye my hair back to normal after the red fades & I get tired of the bleach blonde. I might dye my hair tomorrow or maybe Friday.

Why am I so averse to using permanent hair color? Why don’t I have the courage to bleach my whole head of hair? I want both red hair & blonde hair at some point (but not at the same time!), so what am I waiting for? The smart thing to do would be to find a permanent color that matches my hair now, so if I don’t like the red/bleach, I can easily go back to being brunette! Maybe this weekend I’ll go shopping… sigh

Green & Red

Actually, I’ve now come to the conclusion that I will in fact bleach my hair and try to get it as bright red as I wanted. I won’t bleach it right away, since I only just dyed it recently. I’ll wait a bit, but it will be done. I’m also tempted to try some shock colours again, but first I’ll need to see what my hair colour looks like after the bleach.
I’m going to buy the bleach today, because I’ll be dyeing Juho’s hair green tonight and we’re bleaching it first. This’ll be the first time we’ll bleach his hair, so I’m sure the green will stick properly now. It’ll be so cool!
Since his hair isn’t that long, I’ll save about a half of the bleach (unmixed) for myself.
I’ve also been thinking about some other changes for my hair, I’m not really happy with the style I’ve got now. Hmm. We’ll see what becomes of it.
