    Default From blonde to redhead - will my $$ likely be affected?

    I currently have a Barbie-type look going on (platinum blonde hair, fake boobs, tan). A few people told me I'd look good with a dark red color and I've been blonde for years and am ready for a change (I know I can pull the color off, my natural hair is slightly red).

    The thing is I'm worried I might have a harder time making money at work. When I went from light brown to blonde I saw an immediate increase in money. However I'm hoping red hair will have a similar effect because it's unique and can appear sexually aggressive.

    Has anyone else made this change and if so how was your money affected, if at all? Did you regret it? Also, did you stop tanning after going red? Not sure if I will or not

    I dance in Portland and there aren't many blondes at my club...but there are zero redheads

    I went a natural (not fire engine) red and saw no difference. It did eliminate the random guys that would approach me when there were no other blondes though... But my average didn't get affected.

    I know your worry though! I had beautiful platinum blonde and when I saw the red at first I almost cried and went "what have I done?!"

    Can you try a wig on & @ least get an idea how it'll look? Maybe work in it too.

    In all my years, I had the most timewasters as a blonde and a lot of guys that would spend small/med amounts of money. Brunette brings me the most loyal custys, and redhead also brought me loyal custys but ones who would stereotype me as a fierce redhead and not as many as brunette. Just pick the most flattering hair color for you and the easiest.

    You know, it's funny I consider myself a blond, but I do have a fair share of red tones in my hair..red is kinda tricky as dyed color, I was told it doesn't last as well as blond, not sure if that's still true. I do my own root touchups atm I don't mind having a pro do the highlights when it's time tho
    Anyway, I think on allure.com they had some pretty strawberry blond (red-blond) shades.

    I did a similar transition a month ago! I left my blond mostly on top and had the stylist put red throughout so the red "falls" out from under the blond. I liked it a lot but my next style will probably be straight red ( natural looking color ). It was permanent color but is fading out a bit now so I'll probably go back for more in a month or so.

    I've been blonde for a loooong time and was using blonde shampoo or special shampoo for color treated hair for the longest time, but in the past 4 months or so have switched to just using regular natural shampoos because I couldn't find a product for color treated hair specifically that didn't test on animals, and I honestly haven't noticed a difference. I do get my roots done every 4 weeks and have it toned as well, and try not to wash it too often (only when I work, days off leave it alone) and I feel like washing it less is more helpful than any special shampoo.

    Took the plunge and dyed it! Last night was my first night with the red and very few customers came in, but of those who did almost all bought dances So I don't think it hurt me any

    It's a fun change for sure

    Reminder Re: From blonde to redhead - will my $$ likely be affected?

    99.9% of the time no man cares what color your hair is. I once burnt my hair off (relaxer and bleach same day)and was forced to have a pixie cut for a year. I remember going to my manager in tears after and he said, "No one cares about your hair their looking at that ass". He was right, didn't affect my money although I think it gave a "doesn't give a fuck persona" which was interesting because it attracted even more men in mid life crisis! Anyway 8 years later my hair is long and dark brown and I'll just say hustle is all that matters. Don't get me wrong presentation counts and I always look polished, but do what you want its only dye.
