Gorgeous bright red hair submitted by Britt, here is how she achieves this color!
Hi, I thought I’d send in some pictures of my red hair. I’ve been dyeing my hair red for 11 years and have tried just about every shade in the book. Here is my favorite combination so far. I am naturally a very light blonde so I do not need to do any pre-lightening. I just use Ion Color Brilliance permanent hair color in Medium Intense Red Blonde (sold at Sally’s) mixed with Volume 20 developer and process it per packaging instructions. I wait until my hair is completely dry and then I add a layer of Manic Panic Rock N’ Roll Red. I usually leave it on about an hour and wash it out. I really like the results. I have enclosed pictures of how it progresses. It fades to a really pretty coppery red after about 6 weeks. My hair really likes the red and holds it pretty good. I have Manic Panic’s Wildfire to try next and I will submit those pictures when I do it! 
The first picture is day one hair after I let it air dry and before I styled it.
The second picture with the ponytail is what it looks like a week later.
The third picture is what it fades to seven weeks later, a pretty copper.
