Color features
Red hair belongs to the category of natural shades, since many of the fair sex have such hair from birth. This color of the hair shafts is due to the presence in the hair cuticle of a pigment called pheomelanin, which provides a similar combination of gold and red, eventually forming a copper-red pigment.
This hair color makes girls and women look brighter and more attractive.in addition, hair color can enhance the depth of green or blue eyes.
However, if you want to change your color to red, it is worth remembering that such a pigment, like black, penetrates quite deeply into the hair, which can significantly complicate the removal if the final result for some reason does not suit the woman.

Coloring recommendations
For a coppery hair color beauty salon experts and colorists recommend adhering to the following coloring rules.
- Dark-haired women must first remove the dark pigment from the hair cuticle, otherwise the new shade will fall on the hair very badly. As a rule, a chemical brightener or folk lightening options that will not harm the health of the hair will be effective in this case. For brown and light brown hair, lightening is not needed.
- In the first dyeing, it is worth keeping the dye on the hair as long as possible.
- You should know that even the most expensive paint rinses off and fades rather quickly, so after a week the original shade may change. To maintain color, it is best to additionally use balms and shampoos designed for colored curls.
- Staining the entire hair or roots should be carried out regularly, since dark roots in combination with copper-red can look green.
- This shade is recommended for a complete transformation of hair color, so for highlighting it is worth using other paint options.
