Red hair only occurs in 1-2% of the population and 2 of my kids are red heads.
My mom had red hair, but I have blonde hair. I love all the different shades of red hair.
I do too. One my kids has the red/orange to strawberry blonde if in the sun. My other one has the deep red almost starting to turn brown but not quite.
That sounds beautiful. Strawberry blonde is my favorite. I tried to dye it that color once but it didn't stay for long.
I have light brown with a hint of red that only shows in the sun. I tried coloring it red and it was just barely darker than what my hair is now. The brown came out more. It only stayed for a few weeks too. 
The first time I ever dyed my hair I put in my hair was supposed to be temporary. The red turned to pink and didn't come out for months!
Wow. My first time coloring my hair, I was 16, supposed to be auburn, came out black with purple. Very cool! My grandparents were not happy. Ha ha!
Hey I say purple is way better than auburn! Even though auburn is gorgeous too. Those plum shades are gorgeous.
It only lasted a few weeks then turned to the dark auburn I wanted. It was cool, either way. That's what they get for letting me stay on my own for a week. They eventually liked it. 
I bet. The shock probably worried them more than anything. I bet it looked awesome! What other colors did you have?
