Dark Red
When executed and styled well, a dark red can be sexy, sophisticated and a subtle shift if you are already sporting a darker colour. In order to achieve a darker red, a full head tint works particularly well.
Lighter Red
Lighter reds can be REALLY striking (in the best way!). More than ever, such are the striking nature of brighter colours that to avoid these reds being too overpowering that clients often opt to introduce these as part of a balayage or ombre. Why? Too much however this colour is becoming increasingly popular when incorporated into a balayage or even more so an ombre! That being said, these colours prove bold so often the statement ‘less is more’ couldn’t be more apt.
A powerful red as an ombre or balayage is distinctive yet not so overpowering. As we colour the mid to ends of hair it can still remain professional or be put up and taken down depending on the occasion.
