Redhead??
Ok so I have a question.

For the longest time i have changed my hair color around. I am natural redhead but my hair right now is dark dark brown. I look like this....


And my friend who is a professional is going to be doing my hair like this on Friday....

so it will be red and she is going to put in a few low lights as well and i am thinking MAYBE a few small hi-lights.

Now 1.. what do you guys think going back to red?


and 2. what makeup suggestions can I do with this color? I usually wear a lot of brighter colors with the dark hair but I feel like i wont be able to do that if I do the red.

Any suggestions or comments??

Re: Redhead??
I think you would look great in red hair. Shimmery taupes and bronzes would be gorgeous imo.

Re: Redhead??
I think the red hair is a great choice. I think browns, bronzes, greens, and blues will look gorgeous!

Re: Redhead??
Ever since I went red (I'm naturally a medium brown), my makeup has never looked better. Purples look awesome, as do greens, bronzes, heck, almost anything, really, so long as you're confident wearing the colors you like.

Re: Redhead??
You'll probably look great in red hair. I streaked my hair red and had lowlights done when I had brown hair, and it looked great.

Re: Redhead??
red hair is hot

(ok, ok. i'm biased.)

i don't have that much of an issue with wearing colourful makeup. i've gotten away with most things, even red eye shadow!

Re: Redhead??
It's a nice color, just keep in mind that red dye-jobs are the hardest to maintain. Reds fade out and get dull. I use Enjoy products, they're the best thing for color-treated hair, and red will still fade out for me.

I went back to dark brown, as close as possible to my natural color.

Re: Redhead??
Holy sideboob on that picture (the celebrity - not sure who she is)!

But you're gorgeous, I think it'll look beautiful. I am a very bright redhead and my FAVORITE bright eyeshadow colours are greens/turquoise. They will pop your eyes and complement your hair really well. I also like pale shimmery golds, taupes, and pinks for neutrals.
