Evening all,
How can I avoid it? I am about to go from pink to red which is easy enough but my roots are really dark brown/grey so I'll need to bleach before I put on the new colour but I don't want my roots to be a completely different colour to the rest. Would it be better to do my hair with a box red first then just go over it with the SFX colour to make it a brighter/better/longer lasting red or is there another way to get a better even vibrant red result?

Hi There, if you are worried about a really strong root glow from bleach, it might be better you try using a 7.0 medium blonde ammonia based colourant on just these roots. On a brunette base a 7.0 colour will lift by a couple of levels and expose a reddy brown as opposed to a blonde ginger. When you apply a bright red you will then be less likely to get a root glow as you will still have a lot of dark depth near those roots. Just remember to only apply the colour with a tint bowl and brush to just the regrowth.
