In order for bright strands to serve as decoration, and not spoil the impression of the image, it is worth following a number of rules. All shades of red and red are definitely not suitable for women with the following nuances in appearance.
- Women with short hair chemistry. In combination with any red shades, the hairstyle will look like a clown wig. Of course, there is no need to talk about the external attractiveness of the image in this case.

- Those with a large amount of gray hair. Age-related discoloration of hair leads to unpredictable results. Red and red tones can be difficult to pick up or give an unnatural tone.It will be better if staining with a large amount of gray hair is carried out by a professional colorist who is able to choose the optimal combination of dyes and pigments.

- Ladies over the age of 55-60. Significant age-related changes in the skin, the appearance of specific pigmentation, merciless mimic wrinkles and nasolabial folds in combination with a bright, saturated hair color will appear most dramatically.

- Women whose hair is severely damaged are characterized by increased dryness, brittleness, and a porous structure. The ginger color is one of the fastest washed out.

Otherwise, after a couple of washing procedures, the shade will fade greatly, the strands will lose their shine and brightness.

- Owners of freckled skin. This "contraindication" is very conditional. If a woman is struggling with orange spots on her skin, she is unlikely to like the idea of increasing the brightness of pigmentation. If there are a lot of freckles, in combination with red hair, they will merge into one continuous mask, making the image faceless.
