    Default Dirty Blonde to Natural Looking Red Hair

    I let my bright blonde stripper hair go back to what I guess is my natural color now ( dirty blonde ).
    I'm bored with not having it look polished. It either needs color on top I think or brighter blonde streaks to give it a more polished look. Have any of you gone from dirty blonde to red?

    Im going to get some test peices done soon hidden in the middle to make sure I like it. I'm looking for examples of you have any dark blonde to red color ideas!
    My hair is mid length stick straight / fine.
    Also, does the red run a risk of running off on clothing ?
    I need to research that a little more.

    Red is an awesome color!! But it is one of the hardest colors to maintain and does end up fading the fastest. (I am a retired cosmetologist) I think Red hair sticks out and is a money maker, we have no red heads where I work at and the other clubs where I did, red heads always banked!!!

    If you do it at home be careful as i have had friends do red and it has stained the bathtub that they have used.

    red is indeed very hard to maintain, when I had red hair it quickly faded to pink -_- and it stains your hair like crazy, it's very hard to get rid of.

    but, I still think it's one of the most beautiful hair colors. there's a shade for everyone and it always looks glamorous

    Ive gone from dk brown to a pale Venetian blonde... Lemme just say I was at my most attractive state (but felt ugly)

    I wasnt a stripper then though but guys approach a lot.

    I regular jump from platinum to red to black and back, and red is definitely the hardest to get out, so keep that in mind. But it's gorgeous if you can find the right shade for your skin tone. In my experience with going from blonde to red (at home), I have to do two boxes of color on top of each other to get it a true red. One dye will often just get you to strawberry blonde, and it will lighten quickly.
    The whole world steps aside for the one who knows where she's going.

    I've done red highlights from a darker blond, had it done professionally though. I liked it, but I think for me the blond looks better.
    Good luck, maybe you can post some pics when you get it done?
