#BROWNISH RED HAIR HOW TO#

Nor, am I implying that I have the best methods, and as with any new experience, if you have health concerns or special circumstances (pregnancy, skin sensitivity, etc.), please consult a professional and do a little research. And since the coloring process is a hurry up and wait sort of scenario, dying brown hair red at home can be much more comfortable.īefore we proceed, I do want to take a moment to add a brief disclaimer: I am not a professional hairstylist, and although I've had quite a few years experience with my own hair (which is quite fine, and a tad oily), what I share here won't work exactly the same for everyone. Over the years, I've gone both the DIY route and the professional stylist route in terms of coloring, and while I enjoy relaxing while someone else maintains my mane, the cost can add up. Because although I love my chestnut locks, sometimes they can feel just a little too vanilla. So in eighth grade, I experienced my first foray into the world of processed red hair and have been moving between being a brunette and a red-head casually on and off ever since.

Not to mention, associated it with strong, beautiful, and accomplished women. I'm naturally blessed with beautiful brown hair (and have a few highlights currently), but as gingers were prevalent in both my mother's bloodline and my step-mother's family, I've always found myself drawn to the mystique of this recessive trait.

Personally, I've had a fairly long standing relationship with red hair dye. (I know I have.) If you think you might be ready to take the plunge and trade your brown mane for something a little more spicy, read on as I share the finer points of using red hair dye without bleaching on your brown hair.
