Natural Red Hair Turning Brown

by Puzzled







I am a natural redhead. My hair has always been more auburn than red. However, the older I get, the more brown looking it becomes. I hear comments all the time like: "What have you put on that pretty red hair?" or "Your hair sure isn't red like it used to be!"

I have never colored my hair. I am puzzled as to why my hair has changed. I am not on any medications, so that wouldn't be the cause. I want my pretty red hair back. What should I do to bring back the natural shade? Thanks Sincerely, Puzzled

Its probably built into your genetics and unfortunately, there's not anything you can do to change your DNA. There are also hormonal changes that take place as you get older, which can make your hair appear different.

You can however, think about using a semi permanent hair color, which won't damage your hair but will give you the beautiful red color you desire! No more rude remarks about your hair and you will restore your beautiful red hair.

You should also consider using hair color glazes, which act like a semi permanent color but also give your hair great shine. John Frieda Hair Glazes, Sebastian Cellophanes, and Redkin Shades EQ are three of the best brands to choose from.

If you don't want to color your hair, you'll have to get used to the comments. People with gray hair have the same decision to make: hair color or live with what you've got.

I am in the same boat NEW
by: Tiff

I am 35 & about 10 yrs ago my beautiful red hair started getting darker, now its dark arburn. I studied this in depth because I just want to cry every time I see old pics & my color is gone. I haven't ever put dye or harsh chemicals. When I read up on it I discovered that redheads have a certain gene to create the beautiful color. If that gene mutates then we wont ever get it back naturally. I've searched for my natural color in a bottle but I am still so afraid to dye my hair. I want it to look natural & fear I'm never going to get there.

I'm 15 years old and a natural redhead, my hair was always a clean orange and its becoming more and more auburn, I'd really hate to lose my red hair because, well i'm pretty ugly and the red hair is all that makes me stand out :/
In the summer its brighter and in the winter its darker. You are not alone, at least my pubes will always be red.

Red Hair to Black, Why ? NEW
by: Anonymous

Believe me ... my natural carrot colored red hair has turned black. I'm now 75 y/o and it started at 55 y/o. Can't find any reason for this ... have been searching for an answer for about 5 years. When I lighten my hair it turns to a light strawberry blond which lasts about 6-8 weeks and the roots start turning black.
