Red!

I've been wanting to try red hair for a while, and finally got the courage to do it!

After silencing my fears of turning into Ronald McDonald, I bought Garnier Nutrisse Ultra Intense Red at Walmart for about $7. And I'm glad I did!

freshly dyed red!
I dyed it over previously dyed light brown hair, and it turned out this beautiful, deep shade of red! The lighter your hair, the brighter the red will be, so if you want a really bright red, bleach your hair first! If you want a less-intense shade, dye it over your natural color!




I do wish this intense red lasted longer. After about two weeks it faded to more of an auburn color. Still pretty, but not as red.
This picture was taken after about a month. It stayed this color for another month before I redyed it. (Excuse my dog, but I forgot to take a picture of my hair during this time period and this is the best one I have oops)
Overall, I really liked this dye! Red dye always tends to fade quickly, but at least this one was still a pretty shade even after it faded!
