Yeah, my husband made a comment about "pink" hair.

I'll probably bleach and use a red the next time around. I've just been a bit lazy and then I keep having job interviews, etc., so I don't want fire engine bright red, neon red hair for that.
My last interview I had slightly purple hair, but it wasn't any more noticeable than some of the less natural permanent hair colors, so I didn't think it would be an issue. Plus, it was in a very regimented environment where they were mass interviewing hundreds of people. They don't even really make eye contact with you (let alone value grade your hair)!
I've used Cherry Bomb over bleached hair and really like it. I think my result looks a lot like Burgundy Wine does right out of the bottle (over bleached hair).
