Red hair: which colouring techniques should I go for?

There’s nothing better than hair colouring to reveal the most beautiful aspects of your red locks! Opt for one of our exclusive techniques to enhance your hair. Here is some information on each one.

A Contrast treatment to add tone

This is the Jean Louis David version of highlights which consists of making your hair partially lighter. To avoid damaging the hair fibre, streaks are always created one to three tones lighter than your original colour. Its promise? To adorn your hair with luminous highlights, whilst giving maximum relief to your haircut. Preferably opt for orange tones to obtain a natural and elegant result. For light red hair, tones such as strawberry blond, are made for you!

A Gloss treatment to make your hair shine

With this technique, your red hair’s radiant shine will be instantly boosted and will last for several weeks! In fact, it will add ultimate shine with transparency. If you wish to have complete coverage, opt for tone-on-tone colouring instead. You can also apply your Gloss treatment as a finish to classic colouring. Furthermore, this technique has got everything going for it: it fades naturally with time, doesn’t produce any obvious ‘roots effect’ and preserves your hair’s vitality.

A Tie-dye treatment to illuminate your hair

This technique is particularly suited for mid-length to long hair. It enhances your red hair, by progressively lightening it, from half-way down to the tips . It aims to recreate a sun-kissed effect on your hair. Furthermore, it allows you to emphasize your haircut’s movements. Above all, do not choose colours which are too distinct or which create demarcations to guarantee an ultra-natural result.
