Everyone's hair can be different but I found this L'Oreal Natural Match Dark Ash Blond 7C to have the least red in it than any other product on the market. It is a true "ash blond" color with a very natural look. It also lasts far longer, through more shampoos, than any other product I've seen.

...Good morning, Mary, how are you doing today? I would like to answer your question well, but I really don't know about that, because I have never used any red color mix for my hair...maybe you can mix some red with the dark blonde and you would obtain some red shadow...at least you can try it for the first time and see what happens...I think it would be a nice option for your...sincerely, Nidia.

I think this color might run a little dark, so try to go lighter to achieve what you want. The ash tones do not have red, but the others might.

I used a darker shade so I am not sure what the outcome will be in your case. However, the W for the warmers tones usually gives a reddish tone.

I have the same as you and age wise also. I have used this in the last and I liked it. It will make you light blonde not gray. I have naturally light hair before gray. Leave on longer for better gray coverage and if your non gray hair is not too dark.

In my experience this color, White Minx, works with hair that is blonde or light grey in color.... However, this is 'temporary' & for the price 'try' it for it always washes out with the first wash..... The color 'Bashful Blonde' is another color I use on an ongoing basis for my roots to enable me to go longer between touch ups, covers grey, etc. Great product. Hope of help...

Yes, no matter the hair type, I believe the product will work. Follow the instructions and for darker results add salt, as per instructions....

Hi there. Since your hair is already lite, it should work.If your hair is Dark it may not work as well. Thanks for looking. God Bless.

This works on dark colored hair well. You won't get an opaque cover, but you can get a decent effect if you layer lightly in multiply layers

The manic panic should help lift the black and get you to a yellow blonde color. After that, to achieve a dark ash blonde you will need to use a toner. Please feel free to email sales@doctoredlocks.com with any further questions!

This is going to give you pretty darn red hair. Like BRIGHT red. If you are looking for a hint of red I would try a different color or try to tone it down a lot by mixing half of a dark brown box with half of a red box. I'm not sure if the manufacturer would recommend that but if I was going to experiment on myself that is what I would do. If you Google Light Mountain Henna Red and look at the images you'll be able to see other people's outcomes, many look the same as my own color. I use this brand/shade every other month. I'll never stray!

Like Michelle, I think my answer will only add to the confusion, because I'm gonna say this likely *would* work if you lean toward the medium, but not toward the light. I have red hair and very pale skin (not ginger light - more Nicole Kidman light) and this stuff is way too dark for me.

It will probably darken it some; their is a light wax that Firehouse makes which is recommended for "blonde/gray/white colored hair." Although Firehouse recognizes that the light (color) wax isn't as strong as Wacky Tacky.

Yes I did exactly that. I have red hair and it is impossible to find the right shade online. I buy the light blondes in human hair and dye them. It took the color beautifully!

I would try dark brown or black..you can blot it after applying and make it lighter. I use blonde but when I put it on it's dark so I blot it with a tissue and it looks natural.

I've used the dark brown and it isn't quite dark enough for covering gray hair. I don't know for sure but I would give it a try. I've also heard that you can add day old coffee, rather than water to the mix - to bring out the brown. Somewhere I also read that you can add black castor oil, which you can order through Amazon. Just add a little less water. I haven't yet tried these but I plan to experiment more in the future!

I am gray haired and use the light blonde shade. It works - HOWEVER I'm hoping they come up with a gray shade that might look a little more natural because the light blonde looks brown. You definitely don't want a darker shade.

The light brown may be too dark .It's a gamble but I would try blonde first .Good luck.

Depending on your natural hair color, if you're trying to avoid brassiness ("red tone"), stick with ash or violet colors. The "N" in "7N" stands for neutral. That may work, but you may be better off with a "7A" or "7V." (The V isn't as common, but I know Ion has a color like that.) If you use the 7N and have red tones, this Brass Banisher product works fairly well. You can also try Wella Color Charm toner in T18. That may darken your color a little bit, but it will remove the red. You'll need to use a 20 developer with it. If your natural color is dark (brown or black), stick with the ashy colors. If you're already blonde and just want to go lighter, the neutral color may work ok. Wella Color Charm also has some extreme ash colors. I believe there is a 7AA color. I went from dark brown to light blonde. I like the intense ash colors, they really help to get rid of the "orange" that inevitably occurs when I dye my hair. But if your hair is dark, just using a 7 color probably isn't going to make it blonde. You'll probably have to bleach it first, then use the color, and probably add a toner. Unless you want to try the L'Oreal HiColor product. I, personally, haven't used that, but it's supposed to help you go from dark to light in one step with no brassiness.

Yes. It works fine on my dyed-blonde fine hair if I use the "light" formula. Inexperienced sales people will say that the regular is the same but it is not according to the experts. In fact, the regular turned my hair darker with reddish highlights after several months. While it was a good color for fall my friends started telling me, unprompted, that they liked my old color better so I know it was not my imagination. If you have dark hair use the regular. Hope you try it and like it!
