Red hair color has been making a splash across our feeds and when we saw this dimensional ginger on our very own Director of Marketing & Events Quin Gable (@quingable) by our Visual Editor Megan Schipani (@shmeggsandbaconn) we had to round up all of the juice for you. Scroll through for all of the details!

 

Starting level: Level 7 base with Level 9/10 balayage mid lengths and ends.

Total chair time: 3 to 4 hours.

Price: $250

Maintenance: Reds are one of the quickest tones to fade, so sending your client home with a color depositing conditioner like the Schwarzkopf Professional 7-77 Chroma ID Bonding Color Mask can help keep their color fresh once it starts to fade. The client should come back every 6-8 weeks for root color and refresh if necessary.

 

Watch the full transformation below!
