At the moment I have nuclear red hair, which looked quite pinky oddly when I first coloured it. Its now faded a bit and is much more orangey like nuclear used to be. I may have to go for a more natural shade soon, so need to be prepared with what I need to do. My hair is bleach bathed, I use 30 vol in the bleach baths, and lift my roots to a orangy copper when I do them, so underneath the red is basically an orangey copper (I think). if I suddenly need to change, what would you recommend to put over the nuclear or to do to change it to a more work acceptable shade? its super bright still! I wouldnt mind staying reddish and being copper, equally Ive also thought about going even more natural and having a chocolatey brown with some copper streaks in.

I would fade it and then top up with a more natural shade from Adore.
You can also mute bright reds by adding some green and bright oranges by adding some blue

thank you again for your reply. Ive not ventured into Adore territory yet, I think I will order some in readiness! I shall go and look at the gallery and see what the shades are like.

There is a thread on here called Adore bases, which would be worth looking at. There are not many pictures of the Adore dye results, so knowing the bases is really helpful

brilliant thanks, yes that will be helpful to see the base colours definitly. One major problem I have, is Im naturally very dark so roots show in a nanosecond! but also Ive got greys, so have to take root action very often ;D
