Fiery Red
So I dyed my hair torridly red and I fucking love it, but I am concerned that the Little Red Monkey has finally started to influence me.
I took my new hair out today to meet the world, the world seemed to like it, as I was buying some more shampoo from a salon the lady serving me commented that my new hair looked fantastic and said, “the hairdresser that dyed your hair did a great job!” I didn’t have the heart to tell her I dyed it and ruin the ‘packet dye is evil’ theory.

“Torridly red” is that the name of the colour?
If so I like it (the name). If not it should be!
Ohhh and the hair looks pretty damn “torrid” too (no I think I’ve stretched that as far as it will go…).
[insert further compliment of “smokin’, hot, fiesty, rarrrrr” variety]

Love the hair, but I think you’ll need a different color of lip glossie other than pink to compliment the new tones.

My hair is too dark so when I dye my hair red, the only time I see the red is when I’m in the sunlight. Now I’m like, “Eh fuck it, I’ll go the whole way and just go black,”. I’m yet to go out and buy the dye yet though.
But it looks good on you, lovely 😀

Everyone: Thank you for the compliments, I too think the red hair suits me and looks fantastic. I’m having some fade issues, but hopefully they’ll be resolved with a re-dye and colour shampoo and conditioner. Ahh, the joys of bright and funky hair!
Gordon: No, I gave it the ‘torridly red’ name. The colour is called ‘Pure Spice Power’ which sounds quite odd – like a name for a girl band. Hair dye companies name their colours so vapidly. Unlike paint companies that go all out.
Ella and Amanda: I used L’Oreal Feria colour booster in ‘Pure Spice Power’ #P76.
Stephanie: The lip-gloss I used is a red tone and is by Sugarbaby, it looks redder IRL.
Christina: My hair had some blonde highlights in it, so the red is really vibrant where the highlights were. I think that’s the key to making it look good on brunette hair. You could also try lightening it first to get a really vibrant red colour.
Peppermint: I do think they helped; the colour is really vibrant where the blonde highlights were and gives it depth. The necklace is from Diva, I normally don’t like much jewellery in stores because I make my own, but Diva makes such stunning jewellery and it’s really well priced.
The real Ella: Oh noes! Joy will be all over me! 😉

I know that it’s been years since this blog post was written, but I am wondering whether you would consider doing a video tutorial showing your highlighting technique. It’s been ages since I’ve done my own, and I plan to ring in the new year with a new ‘do. Thanks!
