Red Hair Color
Get Spicy With Shades of Red
by Leo Garcia Guest Hair Professional
The color red can be an interesting addition to hair color. Because red is a brighter, more vivacious color, there are several techniques of adding red color to hair or sprucing naturally red hair color. Red hair is at its utmost, colored in a refined way and not over flaring with brightness. For instance, mixing subtle lowlights can boost the red tinges and bring about a gleaming appearance. Most people add darker shades to lessen the impact of red tones or to compliment hairstyles to create outstanding looks as well. Others use dark red or light red tones to fashion a rich, energetic hairstyle. There have been some noted celebrities with red hair all styled differently and the three here are prime samples. For shades other than red, visit the hair color ideas section.

Cinnamon Red Locks
Starting with a very peppy red hair, Phoebe Price shows off a very rich amber red color. The red hair color is not dull and flows with shine throughout the locks. This is an excellent example of how natural red hair can appear gorgeous when it is fresh and colorful, especially with longer strands.

Darker Red Shade
Christina Hendricks has beautiful red hair and this image shows two variations of red hair color. The actress has a very strong red color in many of her images but in this one, lowlights are added to produce a very penetrating hue of glossy reds. The combination of darker red color at the top and lighter red color at the tresses greats a fine contrast. The red tones can be seen clearly and seem rich and deep, not colorless and faded. This hair color is a great method to tone down dynamic red color to make it highly darkened and rich.

This is a perfect red color that is not too vibrant yet provides a mysterious essence. The scarlet tones are defined just enough to offset brunette comparisons. Overall, this hair color is a 9 out of 10 on a red color scale.

Preventing Redheads From Fading
| The problem for various redheads is that the color often fades faster or becomes darker and loses that rich red hue. Red hair colors definitely need a lot of protection much like blonde shades from sunlight and heat, primarily heat from styling products. Care starts with shampoos and conditions like those designed for red hair including brands like Dove and Pantene. Salons can provide a polished presentation to enhance the red tones or a special home glaze like John Frieda Radiant Red® can be used to spruce up spiritless red tints. |
