Red Hair Home Dye

alleystar

Hiya guys,

I was wondering does anyone know a good red hair dye for dark brown hair??? A red hair dye that's not just red in sunlight/artificial light but is quite a bright red colour in normal light too. I did dye my hair red in the salon but at 30 euro it's too pricy and I have tried many home dye kits but they never give the results they're supposed to.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Oh and I really don't want to have to bleach my hair.

30 euro is cheap!
I've got dark brown hair but for the last four years I've been getting it dyed in my local salon a copper/ginger colour. Everyone thinks its my natural colour. But it costs me almost £50 every 6-8 weeks
I've never tried any home colours as I'm afraid it mightn't have the same effect.

€30 is very cheap!! I pay €75 for a cut and colour.

Have you tried Schwarzkopf live colours? I found them good but got fed up having to redo the colour every 5-6weeks

Well you see I only pay thirty for the colour but the cut costs 40 euro and I always get both done together so it ends up costing me 70 euro. Oh and when I say the colour costs 30 euro that's because it's semi permanent. I'm a student so I can't afford the above really and I need something under the 15 euro mark with an effective end result.

No I actually never did try the Schwarzkopf live colours but I have seen them in Boots. Do they work on dark hair?

As far as I know they do, how dark is your hair?.My natural colour is exactly like this and the colour turned out very vibrant!

Do a search here as I know there were a few threads on this.

My original colour is very similar to Selena Gomez's dark brown hair colour but usually home dyes don't do anything for my hair and salon dye washes out in the first few washes.

Yeah I know that would give the best result but I don't want to overly damage my hair by stripping the colour from it.

Has anyone used Garnier Nutrisse's Ulta Color- Fiery Red? I heard it's supposed to be good.

I can't see it covering it if it's that dark tbh...You would need to strip it.

I saw a video on youtube a good while ago of a girl with dark brown hair dyeing her hair red at home. No bleaching, this dye is specially designed for dark hair.
I'm trying to find out the name of the product now.

And Schwark .. whatever LIVE dyes are USELESS. Do NOT use them.

I think this is the dye she used!

Apparently this is a dye for covering dark hair http://www.sallybeauty.com/red-hilights/LOREAL36,default,pd.html?cm_vc=SEARCH
