Bright&Fabulous
As we’ve said, carrying red color is not an easy thing. Moreover, there are many variations of red color for you to create your personal image. You can choose cooper, crimson, maroon or orange-red. The techniques of applying red dye also differ. Of course, you are not supposed to dye all hair to look fabulous. On the tips of your hair you may apply such tints as red-pink or cherry red. And don’t forget about highlights. For them you can pick practically all shades of red, you can have your hair dyed in super thin or wider strands. In a word, be creative.
Peek-a-Boo Red Strands on Black Color
Peek-a-boo hairstyle is drawing attention by itself. If you add gentle cooper or cherry color highlights, imagine the reaction of people around. A head burn is guaranteed. Here are some ideas on how to achieve black and red hair color. In case you wear a fringe, you can paint thin strands of your hair depending on what you want. If you have no fringe, you can create one with front hair streaks colored in one of red tints or dye one side of your hair in the front or all over one side (it’s up to you).
Even if you can’t decide on the colors to use for your highlights, it’s not a problem. Use multi-tonal coloring. For instance, mix few red tints and apply them for your hair strands in a certain order or add some blonde color to achieve black hair with red and blonde highlights. No matter what shades or coloring method you pick, just remember to preserve newly dyed red color locks. Red color fades faster than others, that’s why use shampoo and conditioner with ‘color-enhancing’ mark on the label. You can even ask for a red dye with brown tones so that when red comes off, it is not that distinctly.
