Someone told me that when you are losing weight, your stretch marks change to you skin color. Someone else told me that when you are losing weight, your strech marks are red. So my question is, what color of your stretch marks when you are losing weight?

Usually, newer stretch marks are a reddish color and then fade to being a more skin tone color.
So...neither of those explanations are really right, though having them fade to skin color during losing weight is more correct than them turning red, because stretch marks go from red to skin color, not the other way around.

I find whenever I lose weight, my stretch marks fade to being barely noticeable. And obviously if I gain weight they are dark red

NEW stretchmarks are red, OLD ones are paler.
When you loose weight, you skin is less stretched, which is why stretchmarks tend to be less noticeable. Gain weight (stretch skin) and they'll be more vivible. No color change!

Fresh stretch marks are colored, but fade to your normal skin color as they age...

It's either. People who get them will either be red, or light. If you already have them, it's whatever color they are now.
