You'd suit a bright or pale pink. Pale pink will be hard to acheive of faded red though. I wouldn't be surprised if it were fairly stained as that's just what reds do.

I'm itching to do my hair lol but I need to wait till next wknd as i have 3 days off.

I went sallys today and the ladies were so good! I was so happy to talk to people that know what they are talking about in a shop.  🙂 got my bleaching stuff for my  bleach bath.  I'm excited to try something new.
I was in my last retail job for nearly 11 years and the store manager didn't like red hair.  Now my new job I can go anything!

I generally don't trust Sally's employee's. They rarely have much really good knowledge. Though I'm always happy to be proved wrong 🙂

I wouldn't bleach bath out the colour, if that's what you're planning. That should always be a last resort. I know you're itching to do it, but you don't need to fade it a lot to get a good bright pink. Here's a good thread for fading methods http://www.hairdyeforum.com/index.php/topic,1704.0.html

The one lady in sallys was a hairdresser.
I'll take a look at the time.
I'm having my mum beg me not to go pink and to go chocolate brown! Lol

Unfortunately, I don't trust hairdressers when it comes to bright colours either. Most of them reach for the bleach too soon when there's loads of other options that won't cause anywhere near the same amount of damage.

I'm so lucky I don't have people that beg me to go natural colours. I think it's partly because it'll just cause an argument and they'd never win!

I've been impatient and doing the vitamin c treatment haha
I like dark colours on me but being as I can have coloured hair in this job I want to try everything ahha

You can have a dark pink 🙂 just put pink over when it's barely faded. It'll still be a bright colour, but darker shade. Suits both things you want.

Well, I don't mind impatience if it leads you down the path of doing it the better way 🙂 just be sure to deep condition and use a vinegar rinse as vit. C is pretty drying.

What's a vinegar rinse?

Mix one part of vinegar to 10 parts water (roughly). Pour over your hair as a last rinse. Don't rinse out. The vinegar smell will go when it dries.

when you say one part to ten parts what do you mean? lol

ive chucked on a argun oil hair mask then can look at results lol

my hair is now a reddy orange colour. so not too bad. though my mobile shows it up bright still haha

I mean ratios. If your measure is a capful or small glass, one capful or glassful of vinegar and 10 of water.

blah red likes to stick to my hair!
so ill uploaded 3 photos.
first was hair about 2ish weeks ago.
then 2nd is after using fairy liquid and a vitamin c treatment and anti dandruff shampoo.
3rd one is after another vitamin c treatment and anti dandruff shampoo.
ive got myself a colour remover thing but I have read its not good on bright coloured hair.
it I faded but before I bleach bath it I want more out.
any more ideas I can use to help get this red out of my darn hair? haha though I do love it
I do think it looks more faded in person then the photos. but people at work have aked me if ive dyed my hair orange haha

Colour removers can strip quite a lot of colour, and tends to work better when it's started to fade. So it might worn well 🙂

I'm gna use clarifying shampoo and anti dandruff tomorrow then do the colour remover then 2 days of weird colour at work lol
Thank u for ur replies.  This forum is helpful for so many things 🙂
Used a colour before  and it worked but I'm now orange.  Sud I do another remover before bleach bathing  it?or try another vitamin c treatment? I'll try upload a photo but on my mobile
