red coming from brown

Meaghan maybe you need to change the colour that you`re dying it? If your hairdresser is saying that the red in the dye is enhancing the red undertones in your hair, maybe you should go for a brown that doesn`t have red undertones?

Thanx Aussie gal25. The red coming thru is why I`m re-dying so regularly. My hairdresser blames it on the natural red shade in my hair and the subtle red in the brown dye latching on to this. I`m the same as you with the sun light! It isnt too bad in doors, but step into the sun and I have a reddy/ginger aura. Blah! I`ve tried the mousses that you use for in between colours to try and keep the red at bay but that doesn`t work thoroughly and is all rinsed out after the second wash. Maybe I should do a Sinead O`Connor and shave it all off and start again! lol

Hey Maeghan, ive had the same problem ever since i died my hair brown last year. I am naturally brunette but at the time of getting my hair died my hair was blonde. The brown looks great inside but as soon as im out in sunlight i get a yuky red tinge come through my hair. I dont really know but for me this red tinge has been impossible to get out. I have redied my hair many times over the last year and i always end up with the red tinge not to mention i always end up getting the colour darker than i want it just because i dont want to risk having the red. I like my hair brunette i think it really suits me but im thinking now of just going blonde in summer because i dont think i can beat this red.

Things may be different for you tho, ask your hairdresser to put a brown colour in that will over ride the red. Hopefully this works . Well good luck, hope to hear how things turn out xx
