PERMANENT strawberry blonde hair dye?

I'm a natural ash blonde, but I want to do something different to my hair. I dyed it (semi-permanent) strawberry blonde once, and I loved it, but it washed out within a week!

I've been looking for a strawberry-blonde (reddish-blonde) permanent hair dye and I can't find it anywhere.

Does anyone know where I can get some that will turn out amazing and preferably not fade out?

I used to do the strawberry blonde, from a box. The red color washes out really quick, this is characteristic of all reds - something about the red molecule being the largest, I'm not a chemist, w/e. This doesn't matter if you go to a salon or a box, the red color will always fade the quickest.

In order to get a strawberry blonde, you can mix dyes (stay within the same brand and line). Eg: From preference, I would mix copper blonde with a medium or dark ash blonde. http://www.lorealparis.ca/en/haircolor/i...

Strawberry blonde shades:

I love the Feria line, depending on your preferences, you could use copper shimmer, blush blonde or candied pecan. http://www.lorealparis.ca/minisite/en/fe...

I used to use blush blonde all the time, it was an exceptional color.

Garnier is decent, I'd recommend Feria before Garnier. But their copper medium blonde #84 is decent (I've tried this too). http://nutrisse.garnier.ca/en/mechier.as...

**back to mixing dyes: It is possible to buy two different shades, but they need to be the same brand. You would prep both dyes together in the same container. However, it does take some "color math". For example, a copper blonde would have red in it with some yellow (blonde), if you were to mix a copper blonde with a golden blonde (lots of yellow), you would end up with bright orange. But if you mixed a copper blonde with an ash blonde, the ash blonde isn't that yellow, so the result would not be bright orange.

Also, with the strawberry blonde, I found that over time, the red would fade fastest. So, if I dyed my faded hair with another strawberry blonde, the color would end up very orange, or pink. This is why you may want to consider going to a stylist. Strawberry blonde is such a delicate mix of reds and yellow, it can go bad so easily. It's different than dying brown hair brown...

Also, some tips to keep your color from fading:

- don't dye your hair directly after showing, wait a day or too , grease helps the color stick

- wash your hair with cooler water when you rinse the dye out (hot water accelerates fadeage)

- wear a hair tuban after your shower, it's a lot more gentle than rubbing your hair with a towel

- try to minimize blowdrying and straightening your hair - these dry out your hair and fade the color

- avoid shampooing daily, shampoo every second day and condition daily...moisturized hair keeps color better.

Good luck!

you may want to have it professionally dyed that color. Usually my hair turns orange when I dye it blonde myself, and the only way I get true blonde colors are from going to a salon. I hope that helps :) It would look awesome!

Go to Sally's Beauty Supply. They have color that is closer to what professionals use and it takes out a lot of the guesswork. The people that work there are trained and they'll help you pick out what you need. Also, you should get a shampoo and conditioner for color treated hair so that the color doesn't fade as fast, because any color with red tones fades faster than other colors.

Good Luck!
