Best Red Hair Dyes for Rich, Long-Lasting Color Results

Bold hair colors are fast becoming the trend among stylish women. In the past, we saw beautiful blonde and brunette hair colors. During that time, trying out red hair would have meant going overboard, but not anymore. From fiery copper confidence to deep burgundy sophistication, many people are beginning to express themselves through this hair color.

Why Red Hair Color Behaves Differently

There is an unprecedented depth and vibrancy to red hair color. This striking red hair color gives off a certain mystique; it's sophisticated enough to feel timeless in any situation and powerful enough to make a statement. Even though it's one of the most gorgeous hair colors, every colorist knows that it requires a lot of regular maintenance.

Choosing the best red hair dye is of greater importance because red pigments fade the fastest, especially when exposed to harsh water or sunlight. It is easier for this pigment to wash out or slip out because it has trouble penetrating the hair cortex deeply.

There is nothing to fear because there is a new generation of dyes with long-lasting formulas and richer pigments. Apart from their lesser fading capacity and conditioning technology, these red hair dye colors come in several shades for different skin tones. Now, you can make a red transformation that delivers dimension, longevity and intensity. With hybrid tones like the red-brunette hair color, you have longer wear.

Choosing the Best Red Hair Dye

1. Copper Red Blonde

This is believed to be the most light-reflective red compared to other tones. Copper red blonde hair, though naturally looking, is always eye-catching with the vibe of versatility and style. Your hair radiates brighter once you are under the sun, adding an extra glow to your skin. Even when it eventually begins to fade, it gives this beautiful warm honey tone.

3. Deep Burgundy

When you think of a powerhouse shade of red hair, you think burgundy, with its mix of red, purple and brunette pigments. The purple undertone brings a reasonable amount of stability to the red. Compared to other red dyes, the dark pigments of deep burgundy penetrate deeper and as a result, fading is slower and gradual.

The high brown undertone plays an important role in stabilizing the red pigment. This mid-toned mix is quite versatile and easily flatters several skin tones. You should reach out for GK Hair’s Chocolate Juvexin Cream Color in shade 7.99 to try out this spicy and versatile red hair color.

The ruby red dye holds beautifully when followed with a color-sealing conditioner like GK Hair’s Shield Conditioner. Its Juvexin and aloe vera formula prevents fading and locks in moisture to keep the strands hydrated.

How to Care for Your Red Hair

You have finally figured out the red hair color dye that suits you, but you will need to stick with products that are primarily formulated for color-treated hair. This way, you can automatically slow down the fading process and keep the red dye ever-fresh. Here are a few tips to change your colored hair game.

1. Wash With a Color-Sealing Shampoo and Conditioner: It is important to keep your hair clean but do not forget that red pigments fade fastest when it is over-washed. Use GK Hair Shield Shampoo and Conditioner for that natural brilliance and hydration.

2. No Hot Water: With colored hair, one of your biggest enemies is hot water. It can dry out your strands as it opens up the cuticles and this can cause the pigment to escape. However, cold or lukewarm water seals your cuticle and locks in the red color.

3. Add Red-Enhancing Masks: You will love the impact of GK Hair’s Red Red Bombshell Masque on your red colored hair. Apart from the color enhancement that it gives, this formula also boosts hair fiber. Apply this mask once a week for great results.

4. Protect Your Dyed Hair From Heat: Once you choose to go with a red hair color, you should make an effort to minimize heat styling because this color is heat sensitive. When you have to heat style, apply GK Hair ThermalStyleHer Cream to protect your hair from damage. 

5. Avoid Hard Water: Hard water contains minerals that are capable of stripping your hair of its red pigment. To ensure that you are in the clear, install a shower filter or use a clarifying treatment.
