I want to get a deep wine-reddish color. But I have black hair. Can I get that effect? If so which color?

Having color show up on black hair is never a guarantee. If you used a color like Ruby Red or Candy Apple you will most likey end up with a shine of dark red in any natural highlights of your hair.

I am not sure if you will be able to achieve the color you want without bleaching. I've always bleach before color, but then again I go for really bright colors. The deepest wine color I know of Special Effects is Burgundy Wine, pull up Special Effects color swatches on Google and then research the colors you like and you will find some good pictures of what the color looks like on other peoples hair. I've read of some people doing color without bleaching and they usually get the color they want but the color washes out rather quickly. Hope this help! =]

Definetly this one. I have both the red and the magenta, and the first time i dyed my black hair with this red dye, it became a beautiful dark blood red.

The manic panic should help lift the black and get you to a yellow blonde color. After that, to achieve a dark ash blonde you will need to use a toner. Please feel free to email sales@doctoredlocks.com with any further questions!

Yes! I have almost black hair, with gray salt-and-pepper, and it shows up very well as long as the bottle is fresh and full. I know the bottle is getting empty when it gets less vivid on my hair.

Yes I did exactly that. I have red hair and it is impossible to find the right shade online. I buy the light blondes in human hair and dye them. It took the color beautifully!

Probably not the way you want it to. Unlike conventional hair dyes, this doesn't have compounds to "lift" any of your natural hair color off, so it'd probably end up only looking reddish under sunlight.

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.

I have a dark complexion. But, this red color would look nice on a red-haired person. I envision a nostalgic appearance. This is a very lovely color of red.

Angelina is correct. If you use a chemical color darker than your hair color (like black), it should be okay. But you can't lighten your hair. It will turn into green, and won't get the color! (One of my friends did it).

When I have done the two step process with henna and indigo I have gotten a dark brown/black that never fades, I can't dye over it or beach it out, it is just stuck. I have also done the one step process (where henna and indigo are mixed) to make brown.So is your goal to have brown hair or black? My short answer is yes, you can use indigo to get the red out. I would do all of your hair so the color would be consistent.

I have dark brown hair to and I always buy the black because brown is for people with straight up brown hair you'd be unhappy with your purchase if you did brown, there would be a big difference between your hair and the brown. Onless your hair more of a brown.

I don't think this color will work for your hair color. I have dark brown hair and it matches up perfectly! One set was not enough for me because I like thickness and volume.

Yes - unless you're trying to go blonde, or bright red. Being allergic to permanent hair colors, the cellophanes give me the opportunity to mask the incoming gray in my deep chestnut-colored hair. However, as I also mix the Deep Brunette Cellophane (which, like my own color is almost black) with some of the Gold Red for highlights. First time I did this, I was just happy having more shine and not seeing any gray in my roots. However, in brighter lights (like sunshine) it REALLY looks spectacular - even my hairdresser wanted to know what I'd discovered! Hope this helps you.

Hi Crystal, being that henna is a natural product, it won't lighten your hair but you will still pick up a lot of those deep red highlights using the Wine Red. It might actually be close to that purple look you are wanting just because your hair is already a little darker than the Wine Red is by itself.
