How to avoid mistakes
Before we tell you how to remove red tint from hair, let's look at why it occurs. Often, the reason for its manifestation is an ill-considered approach to the procedure of changing the color of hair.
Reddish, and sometimes even bright orange or orange shades can be obtained when painting:
- from light chestnut to intense white;
- from brunette to light brown;
- from dark chestnut to light brown;
- from brunette to chestnut;
- from dark blond to light blond.
Advice! If you have never changed your natural color or want to experiment, we recommend seeking the help of a professional hairdresser who, using his experience, will be able to choose a shade for you that does not lead to the appearance of a reddish tone. The price of the procedure is not that high, considering that you will completely eliminate the risk of redness.
This is due to the fact that the reddish-yellow pigment is found in the largest quantities in curls of the following colors:
- light chestnut;
- light brown;
- light brown.
As a result, after dyeing them, the pigment can be activated and appear on the surface of the hair.
Don't panic!
One of the main mistakes that women make in such situations is panic, which results in the desire to immediately get rid of the problem by simply performing bleaching.
And this should never be done for several reasons!
- Lightening mixtures have an extremely negative effect on hair health, making it dry and brittle.
- In addition, they are capable of destroying pigments only of dark colors - black, brown, but have no effect on red, yellowish, reddish pigments. That is, the use of clarifiers turns out to be a completely useless procedure.
- As a result of such lightening, the unpleasant color remains on them. And here you can’t do without the help of scissors - the only way out is to cut the curls.
When an unwanted tone appears, the main thing is not to panic
Below we will give you some tips on exactly what to do in this situation in order to get rid of the unwanted one:
- reddishness;
- redness;
- yellowness.
Professional and folk remedies to solve the problem
So, there are actually several effective methods how to remove red pigment from hair. Because it can be not just unwanted, but even extremely vulgar.
Professional products
To combat an unpleasant tint, you can use professional cosmetics that are effective.
Among these are the following shampoos:
- Bonacure Color Save Silver Shampoo from Schwarzkopf;
- Silver Shampoo from CEHKO;
- Otium Pearl from Estel.
The advantage of such compositions is that they contain a special, unique ingredient that allows you to suppress the reddish tint.
Please note. None of the above-mentioned professional shampoos should be left on the head for more than three minutes as this can result in extremely unpredictable colors. And it will be almost impossible to eliminate them!
Folk remedies and masks
Naturally, one cannot help but pay attention to folk remedies.
Masks made from natural ingredients will not only help you solve the problem, but will also have a beneficial effect on your general condition:
- hair;
- roots:
- scalp.
As a result of using such masks, your curls will become:
- more beautiful;
- stronger;
- shiny.
Moreover, all masks are prepared at home, with your own hands. That is, you save time on visiting the salon, and also know exactly what was used in this or that mixture.
In particular, among the most common means used in this case, it is worth highlighting:
- chicken eggs;
- olive oil;
- lemon.
For example, in the summer, on a sunny day, lubricate your hair with lemon juice. Make sure you saturate your hair well and let it dry naturally.
If possible and desired, repeat the procedure. As practice shows, lemon juice and the sun work wonders and your hair becomes lighter quite quickly.
Advice! After using such a mask, your hair must be washed and treated with a nourishing balm. After all, the sun and lemon juice dry out the strands, and therefore you need to take care of their restoration.
A bread mask has a good effect. It will be in demand in the winter season, when there is little sun and it is not rational to use lemon juice.
To create the bread mixture you need:
- separate the crumb from the rye bread;
- fill it with water;
- leave overnight;
- In the morning, distribute the resulting pulp evenly over all curls;
- wrap your head in polyethylene (you can put on a shower cap) and insulate it with a towel - the heat will increase the effect of the mask;
- It takes about an hour to keep the composition on the hair;
- after that, rinse with warm water.
Depending on the original hair color

- incorrectly chosen shade.
Therefore, in such a situation, as professionals note, returning to your natural color will be optimal and rational.
But if you need to remove a deliberately acquired red or reddish tint, then in this case you will first have to completely bleach your hair. Naturally, this will have an extremely negative impact on the general condition of the hair and its health, but then you can give your hair any desired shade.
Please note. After such bleaching, it is recommended to use special cosmetics by - balms, masks and so on. They will help restore the health of your curls.
Now you know how to remove the red tint from dark hair - this task, although not easy, is completely doable.
If you have brown hair
Let's talk about how to remove the red tint from brown hair. In this case, the simplest method is to paint it again, but in your natural color.
Advice! If you don’t want to shock your hair again with the negative impact of the coloring composition, it is recommended to perform a more gentle highlighting with a predominant ash tone. It will allow you to divert attention from the redhead. You can also tint your hair blue-violet.
Please note. In some cases, the cause of the appearance of an unpleasant red tone may be chlorine, which is contained in the water from the municipal pipeline. Therefore, install at least the simplest filter that will eliminate chlorine.
It is quite possible to eliminate the red tint, but we still recommend seeking help or at least consultation with a professional hairdresser who will help you choose the right shade and method to solve your problem.

Posted 03/02/2017hello.. I washed it with powder using six percent peroxide and it turned out to be a light orange color.. how can I remove it?. I would like to have a dark brown color

Posted 03/02/2017Hello, Ekaterina. Any dark blonde with an ashy undertone will help cover up the yellow pigment. But the warm shade will still be present - only an experienced colorist can completely remove it. After coloring, tone your hair with anti-yellow shampoo once a week.

Posted 03/02/2017Good afternoon. I dyed my hair a very light golden brown. the result was red hair color. Is it possible to dye my hair now very light ash brown or light brown? Initially, the color was light brown, closer to light brown. How long after this can be done?
AuthorTamara (website)
Posted 03/02/2017Try ash blonde. It will lower the base hair color by one tone, but will remove the red color that has appeared. If you want a lighter result, do blonding with powder. After it, tint with a dye of the appropriate level of lightening, but always with a cool shade - ash or pearl blonde.
When painting, try to avoid paints with a golden tint.

Posted 03/18/2017Hello! For a long time I dyed my hair red, now I want to return my original color - brunette. Dark colors do not shrink, it only turns out a darker shade of red. what to do?
AuthorTamara (website)
Posted 03/21/2017Yana, hello! Judging by what you wrote, I can assume that you got the red color using henna. After natural dyes (henna, basma) it is very difficult to change the hair color and artificial pigment on top of them, as a rule, does not apply at all or very poorly. In this case, you will not get a single natural color when dyeing, because the red color appears strongly in the base. The most gentle option is to grow it out gradually. Perhaps after some time it will be possible to paint it, but by choosing some intermediate color (not higher than level 4) between the red one you have and the brown one you want. Be prepared that the color will not be uniform throughout the entire length of your hair.

Posted 03/21/2017Hello, a few years ago I dyed my hair copper color and wore it for a long time. Its natural shade is light brown. But last year I wanted to update my hair color by dyeing it dark blond to get it back. natural color hair. The dye washed off quickly, and the copper color was left on my hair again. Is it worth trying to first dye your hair a tonic “ash blonde”, and only then light brown to remove the reddishness?
AuthorTamara (website)
Posted 03/22/2017Hello, Yana. Let's take it in order.
1) The fact that your hair has already been dyed (no matter what color) means that yellow and/or red pigment will always be present in the background - this is chemistry and this is how hair works
2) The task of tinting is to give a shade to hair that has already been dyed some basic color. The adhesion to hair of any tonic is minimal and superficial. To make a radical transition from color to color, you first need to introduce the artificial pigment deeper into the hair structure and fix it there. That is, the basic rule is this: the shade is applied to the main color, and not vice versa.
3) In order for the coloring to be stable, the procedure is performed with an oxidizing agent of 6%. Perhaps you used a tint or ammonia-free dye?..
Now, closer to the solution.
In order to bring the current color closer to a cold tone, you will need to either mix several shades of paint (preferably professional), or the help of a specialist who knows how to work with color and mixtones. In the first case, the color of the natural series is combined with a color with a pearl or platinum (silver) tint (the numbers will depend on the manufacturer - everyone is different), proportion 2:1, oxidizing agent 6%. The downside is that in relation to your situation this is pure theory. In the second case, the master personally evaluates the subtleties of color and hair condition, takes into account your wishes and is able to solve the problem adequately to the situation.

Posted 03/26/2017Hello!!! I used to be dyed black, but recently I started dyeing the black with blondex and it turned out red, now I want to turn the red one into light brown at home, but I don’t know how to do it
AuthorTamara (website)
Posted 03/26/2017Hello, Olga! Getting light brown hair without reddish hair using “home dyeing” is problematic. To neutralize red hair, professionals use several paints - without coloring skills at home you can’t mix it like that. Therefore, the best option is to contact a specialist. But if you want to experiment further, and the condition of your hair allows it, try continuing the wash with a bleaching agent and raising the background level to light copper; choose professional paint in a natural shade and add a purple corrector to it. It is better to dye your hair after such a wash after a week.

Posted 04/06/2017Good afternoon. I really need advice. I bleached my dark hair and got it first red, then reddish-yellow. I painted it with Syoss 8-7 caramel blonde. I am now a light orange shade. I would like to get either the caramel blonde that I dyed my hair in, or light brown 6 or 7. I really need advice.
AuthorTamara (website)
Posted 05/29/2017Hello, Victoria. This manufacturer has a lot of orange pigment in the “caramel blonde” shade, which naturally appears much brighter on your bleached hair. To get a beautiful caramel shade of hair, you need to prepare the background to a light yellow shade with a soft admixture of red. Make a blonde wash: 1 part blonde powder + 1 part oxidizer 3% + 1 part shampoo, mix, apply to unwashed, dry hair. Keep the mixture on for 20-40 minutes and check the hair shade visually. After such a wash, the hair can be tinted with a caramel shade, but it is better to use professional dyes with 1.5-3% oxide.

Posted 04/24/2017Hello! I had dark brown hair color, I wanted to become light brown, but it turned out to be light red and it doesn’t suit me at all because I’m dark-skinned. What should I do to become light brown? wash? or become bleached? the color is the same as the very first picture of a girl with unwanted red hair!
AuthorTamara (website)
Posted 04/25/2017Hello, Galina. Washing will not help, pick up with lightening powder (preferably professional). The technology is as follows: blonding powder 30 g. + oxidant 3% 30 gr. + water 30 gr. + shampoo 10 gr. (proportion per short hair, at medium length hair - to the shoulders - increase 2 times). Add a couple of drops of glycerin or an ampoule of HEC “Estelle” to the composition. There should be enough of it on the hair, i.e. hair should not remain dry after applying the dye. If your natural hair has grown out, step back from the roots—don't dye it. After 20 minutes, check the background - it should be closer to yellow. When you wash it off, you can tint it light brown. If you want to get more cool color hair, choose a shade of paint without golden and copper nuances. It is better to use mother-of-pearl or pearl shades; the presence of an ashen nuance is acceptable.

Posted 04/27/2017Hello, I did ombre. Now I need to tint, because there are strands of red color, please tell me which paint numbers are best to tint in order to get a cool light brown color, thank you
AuthorTamara (website)
Posted 04/29/2017Hello, Elya. Ombre tinting is a complex salon procedure. And especially on light brown shades, which by nature contain more red pigment than others. To create a beautiful color transition, colorists use a whole cocktail of dyes and mixtons. It is almost impossible to do this with just one “color number,” especially to choose such a dye without knowing and seeing your hair with your own eyes.

Posted 05/19/2017Hello, Larisa. It is better to use exposed paint as soon as possible. If the tubes were well closed, you can do the same after three months. It is not recommended to store longer.

I no longer have the strength ((((I want to be a cool shade close to my native color (ash blond) the red color on me is very bad, since my eyebrows are dark tattooed...
AuthorTamara (website)
Posted 06/17/2017Hello. This happens because your natural hair has a pronounced red pigment (despite the ashen tint), which appears when it reacts with an oxidizing agent. If you focus on tattooing and eye color, it is better for you to choose a hair color that is lighter (raise to 9-10 ugt) or darker - go to tone level 6, where there is practically no red pigment. On your current 8 ugt, the warm shade will still show through. You can tone it down with a natural shade (8.0) with the addition of a blue corrector or by mixing it with an ash shade (8.1).

AuthorTamara (website)
Posted 08/13/2017Hello, Polina. To neutralize the red tint, mixtons are used. Paint 7.1 or 8.1 + 3% oxidizer + blue + purple mixton (only 4 cm of mixton is used per 30 g of paint). If there is more red, add a little more blue; if yellow predominates, add more purple accordingly. The cold shade is washed out especially quickly, so after dyeing, use gentle shampoos to wash your hair, and balms only for colored hair. Maintain the color along the length using tinting with semi-permanent or direct dyes.

Posted 08/22/2017Good afternoon. Please tell me what can be done in my case. Its color is light brown-ashy 7-6 tone, but in the sun with a copper reddish color. I really dream of getting dark gray hair color. I went to the salon, showed the desired color, and chose ash color 6th. At the time of this dyeing, my hair was natural without dyeing. She warned the craftsman that she had never taken ashes before, but the result was always warm colors. She said that everything would be fine now, she added a little more purple mixton to the paint, + a lot of graphite, just to be sure. Bottom line, not a hint even remotely of ashes. The main length has hardly changed color at all, the roots are red again. She said that she had never seen anything like this before (although she specializes in ashy gray colors) and that means nothing will help me except discoloration. Can I really not get dark gray hair without this? (((
AuthorTamara (website)
Posted 09/14/2017Hello, Anastasia. I don't specialize in gray tones, I don’t see your hair and I don’t know what dye the master used when dyeing it, so I can’t say how possible it is in your situation to get the desired color. It is not the correctors that are important here, but the correct choice of paint - the base for the corrector and the oxidizing agent. I can say that a good ash is always obtained in Londe on 7/71 or 8/71 with an ash ash mixton. But as far as I understand, you want a darker - graphite shade. Graphite paint is available in the palette of professional brands, for example, Selective Color. And the Cutrin RSS brand has a “Marble Lava” tone, which can give a cool shade to reddish-brown hair (your case) or get a pure black cool color - it all depends on how long you keep the dye. Most likely, you need to look for “your” dye that will suit your hair.

Shampoo to neutralize redness on dark hair. How to remove redness from hair after dyeing
According to hairdressers, the red color is the most persistent, so getting rid of it is not so easy, it will take a lot of time and effort. You can use several methods to change your image. Most often, girls dye their hair darker. But hairdressers also recommend using tinted tonics. This is one of the most effective and affordable options for solving the problem.
If you want to give your hair an ashy tint, apply a purple tonic to the red strands. The product is easy to use: you need to mix a small amount of tonic with hair balm and apply to strands along the entire length. Despite the fact that tonics are quickly washed off, using them 2 times a month can completely get rid of the unwanted tint.
Another option to solve the problem is to try lightening your hair or dyeing it ashy. It is known that an ashy shade neutralizes red hair well. You can also use a special hair remover. It is advisable to choose products without ammonia, since they have a more gentle effect than ammonia removers.
In order for an ammonia-free product to remove the red tint, choose an expensive remover from a well-known manufacturer. Ammonia removers will quickly return you to the desired color, but they have a negative effect on the strands, after which they will need a long restoration. When dyeing in lighter colors, it is better to give preference to light brown or “blond”; they cope well with red. Another way to solve the problem is to carry out a booking or coloring procedure.
Bronding is especially popular today; hair looks well-groomed, healthy and voluminous after it. Lovers of contrast should opt for coloring. Unsuccessful coloring will become less noticeable if you apply highlighting after it.
In some cases, folk remedies will help get rid of redheads. If this shade appears on light-colored hair, rinsing it with water and lemon juice. Chamomile decoction also has a brightening effect. You can prepare a simple mask from a piece of rye bread: put it in a glass of water at night, apply the resulting mixture to the entire length of the strands in the morning, and rinse off after an hour. If you wet your hair with beer in the morning and wash it off only in the evening, you can make it a tone lighter, as a result of which the red color will either disappear completely or become less noticeable.
To avoid the unpleasant consequences of dyeing your hair yourself, it is better to trust this procedure to professional hairdressers. Also follow all the hair care specialist’s recommendations, because this is what determines the color and durability of the dye.
One of the most pressing problems of blondes is how to remove redness from bleached hair. Fashionistas who do highlighting, blonding, or dyeing, over time, notice that the hair color is washed out, and it becomes For some girls, this shade suits, and for some it is “forgivable” and “cheap.” How can you get rid of this unpleasant problem and not look like a yellow chicken? What do professional stylists and hairdressers advise? After all, many people really want to give their curls a fashionable “platinum blonde” shade.
The problem must be approached in advance
Before bleaching, every girl should evaluate the condition of her hair. For thin and overdried strands, it is better to carry out a course of restorative therapy using medicated shampoos, masks, and conditioners. If you don’t do this, the coloring will end up uneven and you’ll have to think about how to remove the red color from your hair. Unfortunately, this yellowness is not easy to remove.
It is not recommended to lighten strands if the scalp has been damaged; this often happens to those who do perms. The main cause of sloppy yellow tint is poor-quality paint. Blondes should remember that a beautiful effect can only be achieved with expensive dyes from well-known manufacturers.
Most often, in order to save money, girls paint the house themselves, often disrupting the technological process. It happens that the paint on the head is left on for longer than the time specified in the instructions. Such actions only lead to a worsening of the result - yellowness appears. It can also appear after highlighting if the dyeing rules were not followed.
Particular caution should be exercised by beauties who have dark hair or have previously dyed their hair black or chestnut shade. Only experienced hairdressers can go from dark to light color the first time without the appearance of yellowness. It is better to gradually carry out the lightening process; you can begin to bleach individual strands or do highlighting.
Special rules for lightening
The process of lightening strands requires special rules, so that later you don’t have to think about what dye to use to remove redness from your hair. At the very beginning, the diluted paint is applied to the back of the head, since this is where the strands take the longest to discolor. After this, begin painting the middle of the head. The temples and bangs are started at the very end. To ensure that there is only a small amount of yellowed hair, they try to apply the dye very quickly, capturing small strands.
Initial clarification is carried out according to the following recommendations:
- The dye is applied to the middle part of the hair and left for about 20 minutes.
- The root zone is processed and left for another 15 minutes.
- This procedure is performed no more than once a month.
Re-staining is done exactly the opposite. It is best to entrust the initial lightening procedure to an experienced professional.
The right choice of lightening products
Correctly selected paint for lightening or coloring is the key to protection against unwanted yellowness. It must be remembered that lightening products only bleach the curls, and special dyes can lighten and give the hair a certain shade. It can be ashy, platinum, smoky, pearly. Creating a toning effect helps neutralize unwanted yellowness.
When choosing paint in a store, you need to look not at the image, but at the shade number. Most often it consists of three digits. The first is the tone level (from 1 to 10). The first level means black. Levels 5,6,7 are light brown. But for blondes, levels 8, 9, 10 are suitable. Each level has its own main shade, which is listed under the second number on the packaging. There are 8 main shades in total (from 0 to 7). To remove red from your hair, you need to use cool primary shades, designated 0 and 1. The third digit of the dye number refers to an additional shade. There are also 8 of them (from 0 to 7). 0 and 1 are cold scales, so for blondes to get a platinum effect without red hair, the following numbers are suitable: 8.10, 9.10, 10.10.
Sometimes, no matter how hard a girl tries to follow all the lightening recommendations, yellowness still appears. How to remove red hair from hair at home? It should be noted that this cannot be done at once. Elimination of yellowness will have to be repeated with each shampoo or once a week. This procedure is carried out with special tinted shampoos or balms. This product is combined with regular shampoo (1:3), applied to the hair and left for several minutes.
It is worth noting that the “chicken effect” can be removed with a purple or blue tonic. In this way, it is possible to neutralize yellowness and develop an ashy, silver or pearl tint.
The best products from professionals
The first thing that experts will recommend to neutralize yellowness is So, how to remove redness from hair? Reviews from those who have used tint products indicate that L'oreal and Wella shampoos cope best with this task. If the price of these products does not suit someone, then you can purchase domestic shampoos: "Tonica", "Irida", "Estelle", "Rocolor".
It is worth reminding once again that all these shampoos will only temporarily mask the yellow color. What dye should you use to remove red hair from your hair forever? A pure color can only be achieved after re-dying with an expensive, effective product.
Using "Tonic"

Folk remedies

To begin with, the honey is heated, then it is applied along the entire length of the hair, covered with a cap and wrapped in a towel. So the mask must be kept for 3 hours. Then everything is washed off with warm water.

How to remove red tint from natural hair?
If you want to change the shade of your hair without dyeing, you can try folk recipes masks and rinses. True, there is one important nuance here: lightening compounds only work on light brown hair, and those that can work on dark hair will lower the base - i.e. make them even darker, give them chocolate, coffee, chestnut tones. It is impossible to simply remove the natural red tint without destroying the hair structure, since it is an internal and very persistent pigment.
The simplest and most effective recipes for safe at-home hair color changes:
- Squeeze the juice from 2 lemons, cutting them lengthwise (this allows you to get more liquid), mix with 50 ml of chamomile decoction. The decoction is prepared as follows - 1 tbsp. flowers, pour 100 ml of boiling water, bring to a boil, cool. Wet your hair with this mixture, go out into the sun and sit for 2-3 hours.
- Wash your hair with shampoo to which a spoonful of baking soda has been added (not in a bottle, but in a single serving), distribute heated honey over wrung-out hair. Wrap them in plastic and put a cap on top. You need to wear the mask for 5-6 hours, if possible, do it at night.
- Cinnamon will work well on dark brown hair: dissolve a tablespoon of powder in 100 ml of liquid honey, add a portion of regular balm, and distribute over damp hair. Wash off after 1-2 hours with shampoo.
- To get rid of red pigment very quickly blonde hair, you can try this composition: chop 100 g of fresh rhubarb root, add a few of its sprouts, 300 ml of boiling water. Bring the herb to a boil, cook over medium heat until only 100 ml of liquid remains. You need to decant the broth, rinse your hair in it and dry it naturally.
Keep in mind that folk remedies are not an alternative to paint; they will not work quickly. Even in order to remove the shade, and not radically change the color, you need to repeat the procedure several times.
Luckily, given the safety of these mixtures, they can be used on your hair daily. The only caveat is that professionals advise alternate masks and rinses: if today there was honey, tomorrow make a chamomile decoction, etc.
How to get rid of unwanted reddishness when dyeing?
Firstly, do not under any circumstances resort to a chemical remover - it is very harsh on the hair, opening the scales to the maximum and “riping out” the pigment from under them. What will remain on your head after such a procedure is hard, porous hair, which will have to be urgently filled with new pigment and carefully smoothed out the cuticle. In addition, after rinsing, the hair has either a copper or red tint, so the famous “wedge with wedge” will not work here.
So, how to get rid of a red tint if it was caused by unsuccessful dyeing? There are only 2 ways:
- re-paint;
- make a few folk masks and protonate.
By by and large, everything ultimately comes to one thing - the need to dilute the dye again. However, the algorithm through the use of masks is attractive from the point of view that it will treat your hair, which is hit twice by the chemical composition in a short period of time. So first you need to do the following:
- Mix 100 ml of kefir with egg yolk, 2 tbsp. cognac, 1 tsp. alcohol infusion of calendula and the juice of half a lemon. Apply to wet hair, rub in, leave overnight.
- In the morning, wash off the mask with running water and deep cleaning shampoo. Apply a mixture of almond and argan oil to wet strands, leave for 1-1.5 hours. Wash off with regular shampoo. Finally, use any conditioner.
After a couple of days, when a natural fat film forms on the scalp again, you can re-dyeing, which will help you remove the red tint. Getting rid of it is quite simple if you mix the chemical composition correctly. To do this, it is important to evaluate the undertone of the redhead: copper, yellow or carrot. Then you need to buy paint.
- To avoid a new problem in the form of a shade that doesn’t suit you, buy professional product, where coloring cream, oxygenant, and correctors are selected separately.
- To remove coppery red, you need to take paint with a natural base (x.00; for example, 7.00 - natural light brown) and a little blue corrector.
- To get rid of the yellow-red nuance, you will need paint with a pearl undertone (x.2).
- To eliminate the carrot-red tint, a blue pigment is needed (x.1).
Amount of corrector needed calculate separately: for this, the degree of expression of the red hair, the length of the hair, its original color, and the amount of paint spent on the procedure are taken into account. On a dark base you can take a little more mixton, but on a light base (especially blond) you need to weigh it out literally drop by drop, otherwise you will have to look for a way to wash off not the red, but the blue or green nuance.
For 60 ml of paint and 60 ml of activator lotion, professionals advise calculating the mixton according to the “12-x” rule, where x is the level of the base. The resulting figure is centimeters or grams.
If you need to get rid of very pronounced red hair on light hair, it is recommended to carry out the procedure 2 times a month, with an interval of 10-14 days. It should be understood that it is impossible to wash off this nuance forever, especially from colored hair, so the use of leveling correctors should become your habit.
It is also important to know that the higher the percentage of oxygen, the higher the likelihood of rapid appearance of red pigment when the paint is washed out: a high percentage reveals the scales too much. If you don't want to tint weekly, use a 2.7-3% oxidizer.
In conclusion, it is worth noting that on light colored hair, yellow and red nuances appear most quickly; on dark hair, you can get rid of them in 3-4 weeks. Therefore, when choosing a shade for coloring, immediately familiarize yourself with all its pros and cons.
