Well, I bleached out my roots and the brown semi permanent color from my hair last week and then put in some reddish blonde semi permanent in it. The color faded really badly (and looked horrible) within a week's time, so today I decided to use the Clairol Complements Red Intensifier I had bought for another hair project and never used. I think it turned out pretty well and definitely covered up the ugly light orange the front of my hair was previously. Let's see how long it lasts and how it fades.

I like the combo! And the red really compliments your eyes.

    That looks great. I like the tones in it in the last photo.

    A great placement and compliment of hair colors with the gold and the red. If the red fades hopefully will fade to a pink instead of an orange. Please keep us updated on the results of the Clairol product. Thanks!

    An update on the red...it's fading already . I loved the initial color, but I've ony washed it twice and there's a NOTICEABLE difference between that original red and what I've got now (probably more of a red/organge color that's not very shiny). I may reapply the color this weekend and see if that does something to increase the staying power, since my hair was bleached and therefore really porous. Applying over a decent base of red will probably boost it, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it to anyone looking for a long term red color. I think if my color had been platinum blonde instead of light orange, I'd have a dark pinkish red instead of the orangish red, though.

    That sucks, can't you top it off with a veggie dye?
