I certainly have a thing about red hair, I'll admit. I also have a deep hatred for brown hair (on myself!) which is my natural colour.
The last time I dyed my hair red was in the salon, back in October. As you can imagine, I have terrible roots now. They can't even be described as roots more 'random red bits at the end of my hair.' Rather attractive, hey?
So to save on costs and an exhausting trip to the salon, I'm doing home dye again. We have a new bathroom floor, so we ended up getting a creme, red spots on a new floor I don't think my parents would appreciate much!
The lovely Lucy reccomended that I try L'Oreal Casting Creme, along with another friend who uses 'Dark Cherry' in the range, I thought I'd give this one a go. I'm yet to do the patch test, which requires 48 hours, so most likely will be doing the dying on saturday.
As much as I'll dislike it, I'll do before/after photos. You'll get to see my scatty 'random red bits at the end of my hair', joy!
I've chosen 'Terracotta' in the range, it's a darkish red but any red for me at the moment is good! Along with it being a semi, if it goes horrible then at least I don't have to wait forever.

Below is the colour chart, I have a mixture between light brown/brown, so gives you a rough idea of the colour that should come out afterwards.
Looks slightly promising! Shall update you guys on how I get along, lets hope it really is 'no drip'! Any else of you tried this range before? I'm excited!
It WILL be a success!
