I've been dying my hair a red for years and these are the 8 products that I trust to keep my colour vibrant

Headshot of author with red hair.

Like most, I've experimented with a number of hair colours over the years. I've been very dark and very blonde, and everything in-between. But it wasn’t until I tried an auburn shade, that I found the shade for me.

I’ve been colouring my hair a gingery red for over a decade now, and thanks to my year-round milky skin tone that refuses to tan, most friends and colleagues that I’ve met over the last few years are convinced it's my natural colour. I usually dye it myself with an at-home Clairol Nice 'n Easy box kit, which coats my hair with a cheerful, glossy auburn shade that has plenty of sheen. I love the natural-looking tone, but I find that after a few weeks, the vibrancy can start to fade and my ginger locks can become a little lacklustre.
