Hi , when I was child my hair was white blonde. Then turned a sort of pale brown red blonde which I ruined with sun in in my late teens! I've had red hair for years which people thought was my own as my colouring is very pAle with mid blue eyes and a few freckles never ever tan!
I'm now 50 and my roots tell me I am 50 % grey and 50% a pale mouse . I'm beginning to wonder if my current red is a bit naff . It's all one colour and its a 6 shade 643? From a shop that supplies prof salon s or I use nice and easy temp pale warm red. My hair is one shade no lovely high lights and somethimes I long to look a bit more ' expensive' or natural but at same time the red has always always suited my skin tones. Think Rita coronation street but a.deeper shadelike a mid to pale copper.any suggestions please ! I'm feint am I too old for ( pale ish) red hair?i can't afford hairdressers for colour!

Do you like it? does it suit you? Then stay red! You are not too old!

It is good to be different Smile I am mouse too but prefer to dye red, tho shame that whatever I use it goes on strong then fades and looks great and then its practically gone!
