Should I become a redhead?

I've been blonde my whole life and have never tried anything else. Do you think maybe it's time for a change? Can I pull off red hair a la Isla Fisher?

Re: Should I become a redhead?

  • I think you should go Rhianna red.

    eeeek! I'd definitely stand out haha. I think I'd look more Ronald McDonald than Rhianna since I'm so winter pale right now!

  • Holy mackerel look at her rack!

    Uh, back to your question. Have you tried uploading pics to one of those websites where you can change your hairstyle?  

  • It is really, really difficult to get a dye job that looks like that unless you have a crazy awesome stylist.  I think you would look cute if you could get that color red, but yeah.

    I found her color formula online and I'd probably pay out the asssss to have someone really good do it. But I'm still not sure.

    Have you ever had darker hair? 

    I agree with everything that muddled said. You should listen to her. -ESDReturns
  • I love love redheads. Just be weary though - dying blonde hair red by the wrong person and you could end up with clown red hair.

  • I went red a couple months ago and I love it but the upkeep is much more difficult than my blonde was. It fades pretty fast and while mine looks fine when it fades (it's not like growth on blonde hair but just fades out sort of) it's still frustrating.

    Mine is a darker color but I think that shade's really pretty.

    I know, that's what I'm afraid of!

    Muddled, no, always been blonde. My little sister is like my brunette twin so I have some idea that it would look okay.

    I love the idea of a warmer color on you.  And you KNOW I think redheads are fabu!

  • I think that color would look fantastic on you if you had the right colorist do it properly - that would be the trick - red is a tough one, but if you have the color formula and a good stylist that's key! My girl is great, she loves to do color, if you need a recommendation. Red also fades/dulls more quickly than other colors so that's another factor to keep in mind re: maintenance :( 
  • My vote is DO IT!

  • I think you should! I was always a dishwater blonde and dyed my hair red for my 30th birthday! I love it!
  • Do not ask yourself why, but why not?

     

    (Yes, do it)
