Red Hair Goals: What You Need to Know Before Going Red
If you’re thinking about switching up your look with a bold and fiery red hair color, you’re not alone. From copper tones to deep burgundy, red shades are trendingāand for good reason. But before you grab that dye, hereās what you need to know to rock this vibrant look and keep it glowing.
1. Not All Reds Are the Same
Thereās a world of red tonesāfrom strawberry blonde and auburn to cherry red and mahogany. Your skin tone, eye color, and style should all play a role in choosing the right hue. Want a personalized shade? AtĀ Beyond Studio in Woodbridge, VA, our color experts help you find theĀ perfect redĀ for you.
2. Prep Your Hair Before Color
Healthy hair holds color better. Use a clarifying shampoo and a hydrating mask one week before your salon appointment. Avoid heavy oils 24 hours before the service to help the color set deeply.
š”Ā Pro tip:Ā Ask your stylist about ourĀ pre-color hair treatmentsĀ at Beyond to prime your strands perfectly.
3. Color-Treated Hair Needs Special Care
Red pigments fade faster than other colors. To maintain that fresh-from-the-salon glow:
- UseĀ sulfate-free shampooĀ and conditioner
- Wash your hair in cool water
- Avoid daily washing
- Apply heat protectant before styling
You can shop ourĀ Beyond Color Care KitĀ hereĀ ā designed for long-lasting vibrance and shine.
4. Sun and Heat Are Not Your Friends
Red hair fades easily with sun exposure and hot tools. Wearing hats outdoors and using a UV-protectant spray can go a long way. For styling, try our salon-grade thermal protectors available in-store.
5. Touch-Ups Are Key
Red dye molecules are smallāthey slip out of the hair faster. Schedule a gloss or root touch-up every 4ā6 weeks. Our color maintenance packages at Beyond make this simple and affordable.
