My hair is not red, but easily picks up red. Now I NEVER use anything that doesn't specifically say "cool" in the color name. I tried the Brass Banisher (with high hope) and I could not see any difference in the tone afterwards. So frustrating when I have a good color, then touch up the color and have red/brassy results. Virtually everything goes towards brassy after a few weeks, but I use purple shampoo and add "red out" (and similar products) to the hair dye mixture before applying, and this helps some.

Depending on your natural hair color, if you're trying to avoid brassiness ("red tone"), stick with ash or violet colors. The "N" in "7N" stands for neutral. That may work, but you may be better off with a "7A" or "7V." (The V isn't as common, but I know Ion has a color like that.) If you use the 7N and have red tones, this Brass Banisher product works fairly well. You can also try Wella Color Charm toner in T18. That may darken your color a little bit, but it will remove the red. You'll need to use a 20 developer with it. If your natural color is dark (brown or black), stick with the ashy colors. If you're already blonde and just want to go lighter, the neutral color may work ok. Wella Color Charm also has some extreme ash colors. I believe there is a 7AA color. I went from dark brown to light blonde. I like the intense ash colors, they really help to get rid of the "orange" that inevitably occurs when I dye my hair. But if your hair is dark, just using a 7 color probably isn't going to make it blonde. You'll probably have to bleach it first, then use the color, and probably add a toner. Unless you want to try the L'Oreal HiColor product. I, personally, haven't used that, but it's supposed to help you go from dark to light in one step with no brassiness.

You would probably need to see their hair color samples in a store in order to know for sure. My hiardresser used this brand on me back in the 90s when I used to have mine done professionally. I just kept using the same colors. I used to buy it in a beauty supply store where they had the sample book, but now I just buy it online since it's cheaper. Try to find a beauty supply that sells it so you can choose your colors.

It didn't change my red color at all. Doubtful it will change your color. My color still faded with this product so I have since switched to Pureology (sp?). That works much better for me.

Go with the colors closest to your skin tone...get several color...some a little lighter And some a little darker and mix them until you find the perfect match...just remember how many drops of each color you use when mixing so when you find the perfect match you will be able to mix the color perfect each time....good luck...air brushing is wonderful!

Yes it is more about getting rid of unwanted yellow tones. You can use a toner at anytime in the life of your hair color. If this doesn't help you try some purple shampoo.

It all depends on if the powder is fresh and real or not. It should be a bright green color. When you mix it with the said ingredients to make the paste (like lemon juice and sugar), it will draw the dye out and turn into a dark red paste. To make the stain darker on your skin, add some essential oil to it like Tea tree or Lavender.

I am not a licensed beautician just a customer. I have made the switch to henna and my hair is doing better than ever. Henna is safe in the sense that it will not hurt you in any way. As far as getting the same results as Loreal that is different. The color may not be the same. Also, Henna is a rinse not a dye. For similar results to Loreal, such as evenness and how long the color lasts, switch to an organic dye. I switched to the organic dyes first. They can be just as drying as the chemicals. I then switched to henna because it leaves your hair soft. Unfortunately, you have to use it more often because it rinsed out. I am not a licensed beautician just a customer.

Yes u can dye it, I used Ms Clairol, and you can curl it and flat iron up to 430 degrees, just make sure you use a heat protector and after you dye make sure you use a separate conditioner, but I love it.

All I know for sure is that they don't offer a color for rehdeads. What I bought is a medium light brown and it works great -- I just wish they made it really for redheads. Can't tell you about the other colors, but I suspect there aren't a wide range.

I don't have color treated hair, but when I did, I used a special shampoo that wouldn't remove the color. (My color was the "wash out" type.) It never got my hair squeaky clean. Neutrogena will give you the squeaky feel so it might damage your color.

Thanks for contacting us. Sorry to say but you will not get bright red on your dark color hair. Henna is chemical free hair dye which you can only go from lightTo darker color. By using this you will achieve red tints on your dark hair. Thank you and hope we have answered your question.

Pearl Blonde with and use Gray Magic....it will turn the solution very orange looking, do not despair....it will not affect the color....the pearl will ash out the god tones and grab the white hairs

I didn't have this problem. Maybe you didn't leave the dye on long enough or didn't apply it correctly to the roots. Since one other reviewer also had your problem, you should contact the manufacturer, since there must be a difference in hair types.Ursula Behrens

my hair is naturally light brown, and when I used the henna for the first time it did give me the deep red that I wanted. I would recommend for you to leave it as long as you can, the longer you keep it on the deeper the red is. The longest I've left it on is 3 hrs and it was a nice deep red, maybe the color you want. good luck!

I used the "dark brown formula" and it just accents my dark brown hair; there is no red at all. They have different herbal formulas. order the one you want and read the instructions - if you add salt or vinegar, it will affect the results in different ways.

I bought 2 just to be safe. Mine is thick, but not terribly long. I ended up mixing the color with conditioner. You don't need to mix with a developer (or toner as someone else said... not sure why you'd mix it with a toner), because it's more of a stain than a dye. It is super dark if you put the color straight on your hair, so I'd suggest mixing with conditioner to lighten it up and get the bright purple.

Not entirely sure... I don't color my hair, so I am hesitant to say yes. I would call a store like Ulta to ask the specialist there... Sorry I can't be of more help!
