Hair Coloring from Blonde to Red Copper?
Blond
I would like to go red but am afraid that it will wash out orange. I like the deep copper color with blue in it. How do I keep the color from fading and washing out? I have fair freckled skin. Hazel/Brown eyes.
Red Copper is a nice choice!

Deep red copper will suits you fine and if done by salon professional, you should be less worry about the orange washout color afterwards. Most of the red color pigments are normally sits on the hair and not easily absorbed into the hair cortex. Every time you wash your hair, those color pigments will start to fade away and your hair color loose its vibrancy. Salon professional colors are more intense and stay longer on hair than home kit colors.However, deep and intense tones like red and brunettes are always hard to keep and you won't be able to stop the fade-away. You can reduce this by using color boosters, color refresher and color protected shampoos and conditioners formulated for red hair or at least get those products that are for color treated hair. Also avoid sun and don't wash your hair in first 48 hours after coloring and avoid clarifying and volumizing shampoos.
But don't let this stop you from what you want. I say go for it.

Try hair color for women of color they have lots of reds to choose from, they have lots more conditioners and they seem to grab on to the hair and stay better. Yes even better than salon hair color. I've done all the experiments and that seemed to work the best and the longest with hardly any hair damager!
I'm a natural medium blonde and i had my hair dyed a deep red- but more brown than copper tones - and it faded really well. I had not previously colored my hair, so the color took evenly (in the past i had gone red after dying a lighter blonde and the color did not fade well!). I eventually got blonde highlights twice as the red faded and it it looked great! Don't be scared- just go for it!
