well my hair natural color is very light brown or as so called dirty blonde,when i turned 15 i started to highlight it with platinuim blonde till i reached 17 then i turned it into all into strawberry blonde then to platinuim blonde then i discovered it need alot of care well whatever u do the hair look damaged and a split ends nest my hair is so soft and so weak for dying cream doesnt hold but 15 min max then turn to complete platinuim so i went to dark brown when i turned 18 then it began to fade out to light brown then i added highlights and back again dirty blonde well for first thing my hair roots are very dark which is strange my colorist told me it''s natural hair reaction against dying cream ,anyway now i got bored with my hair color i feel i m back to childhood again ...for month now i had taken real good care of my hair i dont blow dry it but once a week and use usually some hair mosse over it or a touch of spray my hair is straight and a bit wavy and baby smooth ... i m thinking about dying it red or peach color like the actress who played spider man girl in the movie i m wondering if it will suit me as i''m light bronze and very much will get more bronze as i live by the beach and fond of getting a tan every couple of days my eyes r hazzel and my hair is layered from my chin till past shoulder lengh with 10 cm...........i m also afraid that it will turn orange or it will be damaging to my hair as i m happy it''s almost back to it''s nature.......any advices ?

for god sakes never go red. If it goes wrong its hell getting the color out. Any color you decide to dye it, it will always have that reddish tone in it.

stear clear from it, any color but red!!!!!
try a rinse

So long as your skin is suited to reddish tones, it's not a problem, though :-) . I like red-- it's black that nearly killed me, as nothing would cover over that at all, and I had no choice but to wait it out until the black all grew out :-( . Anything that can be dyed over is fine, but black I wouldn't suggest, unless you're ready for a really long-term commitment.

More awesome than a manatee!
