It is very bright! Ginger!
Was meant to be copper but it is very very ginger!
DH was shocked - the kids haven't noticed. Not sure whether to brave it out or go and buy another dye!

Can you upload a picture of it?

I think we need before and after evidence

It doesn't look as bright on pictures. It looks different in every single mirror I have looked in.
Worst of all it is quite patchy. The front is bright but there is abig chunk by my ear that hasn't taken well.

Before and after. Looks okay in the pic I think. DHs reaction made me think it was worse than it is.

I've dyed my hair ginger accidentally - it didnt look like that! It genuinely looks lovely.

Lovely colour and suits your colouring. Might change over time as you wash it.

LizziesTwin · 27/07/2019 08:09

Chances are your husband wasn’t expecting a change and so over reacted in error. It looks lovely, really suits you.

daisypond · 27/07/2019 08:12

It looks really nice!

BenWillbondsPants · 27/07/2019 08:14

Oh I love it!

I tried to dye my hair ginger once and it went pink instead. Caused quite the stooshie in the playground for the school gossips.

Morgan12 · 27/07/2019 08:16

I love that colour. I wish I could pull it off.

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 27/07/2019 08:19

Absolutely gorgeous, don't change it!

TotheletterofthelawTHELETTER · 27/07/2019 08:19

It’s lovely, it suits you

Apolloanddaphne · 27/07/2019 08:21

Thanks ladies. Really boosting my confidence which is needed as about to go to the gym for swimming lessons. It is actually a bit brighter on at the front in real life but as I said, the lighting in this house isn't great so every mirror looks different. Lets see how it looks in daylight!
