What colour is my hair?

Hi all

I'm planning on getting hair extensions. I have autism and find describing colour difficult so not sure if I should be looking more at browns or reds? What colour would you say my hair is?

Look more at the reds

Wakeuptortoise · 21/01/2018 10:23

Red

Mulberrysilk · 21/01/2018 10:26

Red.

Ekphrasis · 21/01/2018 10:44

It's a red but I'd call it a light to medium auburn rather than true red head.

Gah81 · 21/01/2018 12:13

Red. I would call it auburn.

JanetStWalker · 21/01/2018 15:41

Red, coppery red.

verite · 21/01/2018 15:49

Yes auburn.

verite · 21/01/2018 15:49

Beautiful colour by the way.

turophile · 21/01/2018 15:50

Definitely would have said auburn - I love it!

TowerRose · 21/01/2018 15:50

Lovely colour! I would say auburn

sportyfool · 21/01/2018 15:52

Auburn ?

Bluntness100 · 21/01/2018 15:52

Auburn for me too, I think if you're getting hair extensions you need to match the hair, so should have the hair dresser match first.

Dark strawberry blonde

Fekko · 21/01/2018 15:54

You red Fox! (Same as me)

stopbeingadramallama · 21/01/2018 15:55

Love it x

IAmLucy · 21/01/2018 16:22

Thank you all for the advice. My hair is naturally a very dark blonde/mousy brown but I have hennae'd it with lush's caca marron for so many years I doubt it will ever return to its original colour now Grin

The caca marron is a mix of red and brown and I can never distinguish which one it's more of although it seems a unanimous verdict of being on the red side!

Thanks x

Ooh I use that one! Trying to grow it out with many white hairs at the mo to see what my actual colour is and if I can cope with going grey gracefully!

It’s pretty much bang on my natural colour. Red.
