So it's that time again, when I begin to research hair colors. I am having a little too much fun playing with different colors. Now, I still technically have a month before I'll be doing my hair, perhaps a little bit longer so I'm just "researching" and like usual, I feel like being bold. Let's see how that works hmm?
I have been all sorts of different versions of red, so I am keeping to that family because well, I'm naturally a red shade girl. My profile picture is my natural tone, if you can't see it, here it is below:

Those are the two best shots I have of my hair colors. You can see the hair has red and gold tones, depending on the light. In the winter it turns darker, but in summer that long hair shot really shows the lightness I get. Almost a strawberry blonde tone. I've never been told my true hair color, or been able to compare it to anything, so whatever you want guess is good with me. I've had some say "light brown" and others call it "red" and still others "strawberry blonde." We're talking hair people, people.
The color that I recently put over my dark brown (L'oreal Superior Preference Natural Brown 4)
was Intense Dark Red (RR04) from L'oreal. Yes, I love staying with L'oreal's products. I just find them to be the best for my hair. The above shot is what I got with the Dark Brown. As you can tell, I still have warm tones in it, since I had previously done Dark Auburn. I think that one was L'oreal Preference Dark Auburn 4R.
Now to decide what to use with the next choice. The above I colored over with Intense Dark Red and left me (as I figured it would since I didn't do anything different and I forgot how long I left it in so I probably washed it out too soon) with a Dark Soft Mahoganey color like my first Raspberry Truffle from Garnier (which the color I happened to LOVE, it just made me lose too much hair when I did it). My hair typically retains red pretty good and picks up red from ANY hair color so that's not a problem. Plus, I have pretty healthy hair (I take good care of it) so it takes color well.
These are my choices I'm looking at and would love your opinions. What do you think?
- Revlon Colorsilk Luminista Haircolor, Red 150 -
Grabbed from Google Product Search under "Shopping" |
- Garnier Light Intense Auburn (I don't WANT to use Garnier, but I do like the color) I'm going to just link to her site because that's a great picture of the box, and color. Mine would turn out different since I'm not naturally as dark haired as she is.
- L'Oreal Paris Feria Haircolor, Ruby Fusion 66
- L'oreal Paris Feria Haircolor, Ruby Rush r68
- L'oreal Superior Preference Intense Red Copper RR07
They are all similar colors, and I'm not going to grab all the pictures since that makes it difficult to load the page, and they wouldn't be my own anyway. :p I just did the main one I'm thinking about.
So you tell me, which ones do you think would be best and would you choose for me? It'll be all-over color because well... I'm lazy like that... and I don't have THAT long in the bathroom these days. Don't even bother to ask, but let's just say that even eating sometimes involves scarfing and getting back chasing after little gremlins, or trying to get some writing in for five seconds. haha
What is your choice?
I may end up deciding to go with the majority... just because!
My natural look is Irish basically. haha My Irish genes are the most dominant, which means green eyes (darker in the winter, and when I'm angry haha, and lighter {more emerald} in the summer, or when I'm happy!) and pale skin. You'll know it's summer when the freckles come speckling across the cheeks too. :)
Tootles!
Lots of warm red hugs and loves coming free from me to you!!

Until next time!
