Is there a good red hair dye that is pretty, not shocking and will leave your hair soft?

Answer 1

I recommend the color experts two-step product (the one in the big red box that comes w/ highlights)--it's called cherry cordial. I've been using this for more than a year, and get a lot of compliments on it, including from salon professionals. Costs approximately $20, much more affordable than professional coloring, and I'm pleased with the results. It does leave my hair soft, and comes with extra conditioner. I've had my hair profesionally done before (including once when I messed the color up myself), but for my lifestyle, home coloring works just as well (that is, I'm not super obsessive about appearance). All hair dyes fade with time, and red is the worst--but it's still affordable to keep this one up, as opposed to $100 a month for a salon job.

hey,am not an expert in this but i will tell you what i know.well,the effect of dyes is almost the same with relaxers!!!they can either make or mar your hair!!!i have really thick hair and i have always longed for sleek and soft hair!not forgetting a suave colour.introducing hair dye!!guess what i went for??RED.needless to say,i went on a shocking,thinnning hair experience that i wont forget in a hurry.
red as a colour is shocking and you cant take that away from it!however,you can go for red colour 33,that will look like marcia cross"s lovely red hue.(if you are lucky that is)however,if you are of african descent like me,please sister,relax your hair before applying dye!!but if you have naturally soft hair,the dye will further thin your hair and automatically make it softer.so,there goes.
all the best!!(hope u dont intend on getting a temper to go with it)lol

Redken makes a great line of red haircolors. You would have to go to a salon to get it but it is so worth it. They have a variety of reds to choose from and you will definetly find one that will suit your skintone. They are long lasting too so you will not have to worry about fading. Remember that when going with a red haircolor: never wash your hair with hot water, use the coolest you can stand because hot water will open the cuticle and let the color bleed out while cool water closes the cuticle and enhances shine too. Also use a shampoo that is specifically made for colored hair. Or even better for red hair. Suave makes a great line of products that you can buy at regular stores that help maintain and enhance red hair. It works just as well as the products you get at a salon. If you lived in Ohio I would do it for you, I love haircolor.

you really need to go to a professional... especially if this is not the first time you have dyed your hair..unless your undyed hair has grown all out, then the color with stick differently to the already dyed color and you will have a mix of colors in your hair... not to drastic, but, noticable. No, all store bought dye is meant to change the color of your hair well if its within a few shades... NEVER use like a black dye if you have blonde hair thats over the counter.. the chemicals are not the same and you will ruin your hair and it will look nasty... TRUST ME... But if yourhair is like say brown and your wanting to do this.. i would definatly use garnier fructis hair dyes....more natural and softer look of a color..
