#red hair
Anonymous asked you:I´m dyeing my hair red couple of months.. and I like it. But I love more natural red hair, freckles, curly hair, etc. I want to continue dyeing but I fell bad because its not my natural color and.. I think that you, natural redheads, dont like when people dye their hair to red because they werent gifted or they didnt experience troubles with them.. its true?
<3 Love when people see the beauty in red hair <3 Thanks so much for writing!!! Personally, I love it when people like red enough to choose it for themselves. But since I can’t speak for other natural redheads, I’ve asked this question before: What do other redheads think about it? I’d like to hear more comments on this…

exhilaratemyspirit said: I love all kinds of red even if it is dyed! So beautiful!
bustymcgee said: It just tends to look fake, but I don’t think people dying their hair red can be reasonably called offensive…that’d be silly. That’s just elitist. Psh.
wehavestopped said: I have pale skin, freckles everywhere and… boring brown hair. So, I dye my hair red- generally a cherry/burgundy red and love it when it fades to ginger. I love red hair and think it is the just the most beautiful hair colour out there.
colorsinthelight said: my best friend whos a ginger sees it as someone converting to his religion, i see it as someone claiming to be of the Jewish religion but with no evidence they dont have to go through the holocaust. its annoying
readhed said: I think it’s almost always obvious when red hair is fake and most people don’t look good with it unless theyre born with it — however, if you want to do it, go for it! Whatever makes a person feel their best.
katiedreamsincolour said: i usually dont mind dyed reds. i dye mine a different shade of “red” (light auburn naturally highlighted/dyed to rusty orange) because i like it better. but to me natural red is always prettier.
mermaidshells said: I’ve always wondered the same as Anon. My natural hair color is really mousy brown, and while that color looks great on many people I just feel so ‘blah’ about it. Dying my curly hair red gives me a confidence boost that I love!
gypsytraveler said: It’s actually funny, because this is the one reason that I never died my hair again after the one time that I did. I’m a natural redhead, and at times my hair has looked like both these pictures. Naturally. It can get darker in the winter, and lighter and more vibrant in the summer and spring, showing off the all the different colors in it. But hey, if you want to dye your hair red, who’s stopping you? It’s a beautiful color, and it’s completely your choice whether to dye your hair or not. The only thing that I really have to say about it is that you probably won’t have the many different colors that redheads of any shade have naturally, not through a dye. You may get up to three, as I’ve seen that on hair color boxes, but there’s more that’d you’d see in a natural redhead. I can’t speak for anyone else, but why would I have a problem or not like it when someone dyes their hair red? It’s your hair! Have fun with it! And I love being a redhead, so if you want to be too, that’s great!
indeliblestar said: As a redhead, I only mind when people who have the slightest hint of natural red call themselves redheads, like the brunette teen I saw at the movie theatre, who, standing next to a standee of Merida, said “It’s the story of my life!” Not so.
livemadly said: Holy shit. Is this even a question. Do whatever the fuck you wan with your appearance, fuck anyone who cares. Like. Wtf
acordak said: i’m ok with it as long as you don’t start some bs about how ~you are really supposed to be a redhead in your soul~ or whatever. i hate that shit
stephali said: I wish I was born red haired :( so I will dye my hair for eternity <3
moonshoes12 said: I don’t mind at all.. I think if you want your hair that colour then go ahead! I do hate when people dye their hair cherry red though and they freak out when it fades and goes ginger. What did you expect to happen???
songbirdcadaver said: same boat as anonymous. Tho i’ve never known a natural red head to hate others for it.

shanimalfeverasked you: all those comments about being a redhead and dyeing it made my day. im a natural redhead myself. it is flattering when people dye their hair red.
<3 Thanks for responding to anon’s question! To add my own feelings to the response, I love all reds, natural or not :)

back to nature
I dyed my hair since i was 15. It had almost every color in the rainbow.
For the last 2 years my hair was red. I love (!!!) red hair, but i never seemed to get the exact shade i always wanted and the color always faded so fast. I got so sick of it, that i decided to go blond again. That only lasted 6 weeks, it was kind of yellowish although it was bleached by a professional. I hated it. Then i - of course - decided to go red again, not knowing, that the blond hair won´t keep any color in. Only 2 weeks after a new hair dye, it looked exactly like above in my before picture.
The other problem was, that i always had to cut my hair, when it got to a length i started to love it. I dyed and bleached my hair to death. And i have the feeling that it got thinner and thinner from all the chemicals.
I want to have long, thick, beautiful and healthy hair. I am so curious how my natural hair color looks today.
So i went to my hairdresser today. She cut off A LOT. My hair was so dry and damaged, you could almost hear a sizzling noise touching the dead ends - it was beyond remedy. Then she set highlights to get rid of the big bright red spot on the top of my head. At last she colored the highlights in a similar color as my natural hair.
I think it looks great. In a next step i want to get rid of the last red spots. And i hope that i can live with how my outgrowing natural hair looks beside the color treated hair.
Wish me the power of endurance. I will report my progress :)
