Are you Brave Enough to be Red?

The latest science shows that natural redheads are slowly fading into extinction.
But in the world of beauty this highly admired and exciting color is very much alive and in demand.
The red trend started in 2010 and has been growing stronger and stronger.
There are warm red and cool reds, bold red and sensual reds, romantic reds and spicy reds.
Reds can be red or orange in nature. When we refer to Auburn we refer to red reds while speaking of strawberry blonde we are referring to copper based reds.
Warm reds belong on people with pink, yellow or neutral skin tone.
The most amazing strawberry blondes belong to those with very fair skin, those with freckles, pale skin with either blue or green eyes.
When I think of red I think of Julianne Moore, Ginger from Gilligan’s Island, Lucille Ball, Maureen O’Hara and Rita Hayworth.
Who is your favorite red?
Reds are some of my favorite creations and to make them even more unbelievable I like to create them dimensionally with hidden hues of light and dark complimentary tones and reflections. Creating the illusion of something happening but not quite sure what is the goal. You want to see elements of the red spectrum. Study any natural redhead up close and you’ll see a tonal variation party subtly oozing through the strands.
Here is our latest and soon to be famous redhead Emily Thompson, notice the stunning impact of the color on her and her on the color. Emily is on her way to NY for her audition for NYC Broadway Evita.
