I want to get red highlights in my naturally medium blonde hair. Bad idea?

I have shoulder length dark blonde hair with 2yr old golden highlights I have red undertones in my hair haturally. I only use aveda hilights and products. I am planning to go to an Aveda beauty school for the highlights. Is this a really bad idea should I stick with blonde highlights?

i think it could look great! you said you were planning on getting them done at the aveda school? i would ask your stylist what they think. they would be able to tell you if your hair is in good enough condition to accept the dye, what it will do over time, how much upkeep you would have to do, and probably whether or not you would look good with the change in color. :DI want to get red highlights in my naturally medium blonde hair.

I vote ';No'; on the red. Because highlights often frame the face, skin color is the most important factor when choosing an accent shade. The wrong highlight color can make your complexion appear too flushed, too pale, or just discolored.





Warm skin tones have hints of peach, pink, or gold, and the skin tans easily and evenly. Rich highlight colors such as straw, light gold, bronze, caramel, or very subtle shades of red complement warm skin.





Individuals with cool skin tones are frequently pale and do not tan easily. Their skin may have blue or gray undertones that are best highlighted and soothed by ash, beige, wheat, taupe, or other subtle highlights.





Ruddy skin tones tend to have strong red undertones and blush easily. Individuals with ruddy tones should avoid red-based highlights that can accentuate their skin, but beige, gold, and honey brown shades are excellent options.





If you have chosen your blonde hair highlight color based on your hair color and skin tone, it will likely already match your eye color as well. As a double check, note that individuals with very light eyes (blue or green) tend to have cool skin tones and should opt for paler highlight colors, while individuals with dark eyes can often choose richer shades.
they may turn out a pinkish color, i wouldnt do it.
