There is a popular belief that red-red hair is not just a shade, but a sign that such a person has a cheerful character and a good heart. People with fiery hair color can easily be in the spotlight with their presence. It is for this reason that many women want to experience such an unusual and bright hair color in their experience. But before changing your natural shade, it is important to decide who gets the red-red hair color, and who better to refrain from.
Color Guidelines
Anyone will agree that people with natural red hair color are very similar in nature. They can be described as kind, bringing joy and kindness to individuals; they are not used to losing heart under any circumstances and are looking for something positive in everything. But it should be noted that those who are painted in brighter colors of red, also have the indicated qualities.
It is important to remember that red-red hair does not fit the appearance of every woman. Before deciding to change the color of the hair to the desired, you should make sure that it will be well combined with the skin color itself, face shape and other characteristics, including lifestyle. Who is this hair color suitable for?
- Selection of a shade depending on the color type of the skin. It should be noted that the type of skin is a rather important criterion for selecting the right shade from the fiery palette. For example, girls with pink skin will have any hair color to face. They can be attributed to the real lucky, as they have the opportunity to experiment with both light and dark tones of red color. Women with olive skin tones should use golden chestnut shades that will attract all the attention and will go well with the complexion. It is better for girls with paler skin to focus on the light tones of the red, in particular, should look at the natural colors.
- Selection of a shade depending on eye color. Even in antiquity, it was believed that girls with red hair and green eyes have magnetic beauty. Red-haired beauties attracted a lot of attention, for this reason they were often accused of witchcraft. If the woman’s eye color is green, then she may not be afraid to experiment with different shades of red and paint her locks in light red, copper and dark chestnut colors. Brown eyes look best against the background of chestnut and bright red curls. For women with light blue and gray eyes, more natural tones of a red color are perfect. These include sand, peach, golden and light copper hair dyes.
- Selection of color, taking into account the natural shade of curls. You can determine the color of the hair dye if you take into account the natural color of the hair that the woman inherited from her parents. On brunettes it will be beneficial to look dark red-red hair color: rich cherry and wine tones. For bright and light shades before dyeing, you will additionally have to bleach the strand, which can adversely affect the health of the hair.
Fair-haired women can apply chestnut, amber, golden and other shades of red. Blondes when dyeing can safely choose any color they like, since in this case there are no special restrictions.

You should not try to conduct experiments with your hair yourself, the solution to such a problem is best left to a specialist.
- The presence of facial wrinkles and age folds on the face. Bright colors will only more strongly highlight the woman's age and all the flaws of her appearance. In addition, such shades greatly spoil the image as a whole.
- The presence of a large number of age spots and freckles. Just as in the case of wrinkles, too bright shades of red color will only attract more attention to freckles, which is not always good.
