New Nuclear Red Hair

Ok it's been nearly 6 weeks now, and it's just started fading a bit orange.  Obviously I have quite a lot of root re-growth now anyway so I'm dying to colour it.  I'm trying Cherry Bomb this time, when the package comes, and also putting matching extensions in.  I'll let you know how I get on this week!

Thanks for the comments everyone!

The colour is stunning! Good quality stuff too, very cool!!!

wow your hair looks amazing!!!!

Hi Lousha, hows the Cherry Bomb? I've been reading your post with interest as I had a very similar experience abut 1 year ago (same base colour/bleach bath/super shiny nuclear red hair) and am about to go back to Nuclear Red (am Manic Panic Pillarbox at the mo) because I've found that nothing is quite like it for colour, shine or longevity... and of course the wow factor! Hope you're still enjoying the wonders of veggie dyes & the fab colours on offer.

oooh thats lovely It really lasts too,very bright still after so long.I must try Nuclear Red (thats another one on my to do list)

Omg i cant beleive how long its lasted! Good for you!! Times a billion! Its beautiful!

You HAVE to show the pics after cherry bomb!

Wowow. I love Nuclear Red. My sister has it, and I keep thinking that her hair is glowing... but then I realize that hair doesn't glow. She didn't do it over bleached hair, though, just faded ginger hair. And her hair is really long so she had to struggle to cover her head. But it's still amazing.

And the fact that it's still basically exactly the same after a month... wow. Cherry Bomb fades to a strange reddish pink, so I'm eager to see how this fades on my sister. But now I kind of have an idea!

lousha!!! Oh my goodness a month of fading and no orange color after a month? it looks amazing and exactly what I want. I think I will for sure buy this color and have my hairdresser put it in. I think I have found my color for sure. I want a bright red that wont fade to orange (i will dye it monthly no matter the color since my roots come in after only two weeks and I'll never go longer than a month), and this might be it... I want to give it a try once my hair fades lighter from the bad dye job I got yesterday when I told the hairdresser I want BRIGHT RED HAIR, ugh.

Eeek this is so nice, I want it! And the haircut is perfect too. I want little mermaid hair too!

I love that haircut! I used to have hair cut the same way and I really liked it, but grew it out because my boyfriend at the time didn't like it. Grr. Every so often I get the creeping temptation to chop it all off again! The red looks awesome; it's wonderfully vivid.

*adds nuclear red to list of future colours* adorable!

My friend uses nuclear red and it lasts aaaaaaaaaages!! so jealous!
Your hair looks awesome btw 🙂

looks really nice with your eyes and skin complexion!

I love that red its such a lovely intense shade!

Aww I'm dying to try this colour but I'm scared of the initial glow! Maybe if I don't let this Candy Apple fade too much and pop it on over it? Or if I let it fade and mix the last bit of the bottle of Candy Apple into the Nuclear... really want something more red/ orangey!
