Red hair can be discreet and not need bleaching

In addition to feeling prettier and more modern with the coloring, some factors can make all the difference when choosing the color. Taking into account the need for discoloration, frequency of retouching and hair dryness is important to see if the color matches your lifestyle!

If you want to go for dark or medium red hair, bleaching may not be necessary, which is a plus point for choosing red hair. Thus, the hair is less dry and suffers less damage to prevent breakage and split ends.

Depending on the dye, the red fade is even and ranges from brown to blonde, which makes the process more pleasant. The Copper Red 7.44, by Cor&Ton, fades to a color close to a slightly coppery medium blonde, keeping the color beautiful until the next length touch-up!

On the other hand, root retouching of red hair is more frequent, as the transition between the natural color and red is very noticeable with the hair growth. Red and red hair also fades more easily because of the small pigments.

Blonde hair retouching can be done less often

Unlike red hair, blonde hair has less frequent touch-ups, which can be done over a period of two to three months. This is a good option for those who have a more hectic routine and want to spend less time on blonde root touch-ups. The color fades slowly, but it can gain unwanted yellowish reflections. So, you will need to invest in a toner to use whenever your hair turns yellow.

But if you are going to choose a dark, medium or light blonde and you need to go through discoloration, know that taking care of the health of the strands must be paramount so that the blonde hair does not break and get rid of the dry appearance. If the hair schedule rebuilding stage is up to date in your routine, your hair will be healthy and protected from damage!
