Shades is awesome... I work in a Redken salon so we use the stuff all the time, it's also the most widely used professional demipermanent haircolor in the world. However, I would reccomend using it with the Shades EQ processing solution... that will give you the best results. PM me and I may be able to help you with color formulation.

It's unopened, and even the woman at the supply store was like, "are you SUUURREE you want to go black permanently?" lol Maybe she'll take a little pity on my poor red strands.

Check out this chick's hair color progress if you would like to see some comparisons. Not too many face shots but can see the effects against her paler skin tones.
Damn that takes patience to grow hair out like that...

I LOVE black hair on pale girls, esp with green or blue eyes.
In fact, that is pretty much the only type of girl I am attracted to. It is freakin hot.
Me too! Most of the women that I think are beautiful all have that coloring; Hedy Lamarr, Elizabeth Taylor, Princess Fawzia(in my avatar)... :) I'd love to try this look on myself but I'm too chicken.

I totally flaked on the coloring my hair! Instead I made an appointment with my stylist so I don't fuck it up. I usually do my own coloring, and everyone, including my stylist always thinks i'm a natural redhead. =) Black is a little more difficult and any mistake would be highlighted.
Thanks for the tips ladies! I'll let you know how it goes!
XOXO!
