My son has ginger hair and wants to colour it,just wondered if i should just stick highlights in it? ,he hates his hair.

Thanks in advance.

I,m so glad I,m not the only one who,s son hate his ginger hair.. My son makes me highlight his.. He,s only 13. I hate doing it but it makes such a difference with his confidence,

i've got identical twins with green eyes and GINGER HAIR! they have already started getting stick for it and want it coloured, i tell them other colur hair is boring but they wont have any of it, when theyre old enough i will pop a sprinkle of highlights in it

Thanks guys and glad i am not alone !!

Far from it, my 2 youngest nieces are both gingers Poppy has blond high lights and Sadie cant wait to be old enough to have some to
Kay's boy friend is also Ginger and has it all coloured blood red. He says if you got it flaunt it but he's 6ft 3 and plays footie for his village, they are the champions 3 years running so no one teases him

Ginger hair is the most difficult to colour,i strongly recomend he has it done professionally hun.Potentially he could end up with a very red shade of brown,or yellow highights,i'm sure he'd find that much worse xx

This has made me feel 1000 times better thanks hun xxxxx


I have done hairdressing but not for years !!!....thanks anyway huni .xxxxx

My girl is 16 now and has been tormented since she was about 5yrs, shes left school now but hated it all the way through.She says shes ugly and fat but i cant get through to her that other poeple are just jealous,she stands out they dont! ill try and get a pic on here for you to see.I hope your kids dont suffer as much has mine did kids are so cruel these days,they things they say n do are just horrible.Yes do be carefull with home colour kits as red hair is hard to do as we have learnt over the years,im no hair expert but get pro advice good luck xxxx

My son look after himself and everyone knows it so he has not been bullied . He hates his hair and wears soooo much gel on it cos it makes it go dark brown,he will be bald by the time he is 20 ! . Kids are evil these days,i have never heard so much evil stuff come out their mouths

Just found a couple of my daughters hair, doesnt look red on these but she is you can see its really red whan it needs washing.But because of all the crap she has had over the years she has now no confidence and she is fat n ugly as they have told her she believes it!

To all those suffering with the same thing xx

Your daughter is beautifull hun xxx

As you can my family is full of em in fact my sis is praying this one's ginger to prove she's not the milkmans (i have been telling her for years) lol different shades and textures will take differently,if you haven't done hairdressing for a long time but do plan on doing your son's a day course on colour theory would be great for you IMO, natural red is the most difficult to colour x

Ha ha !!!! Well my son is the only one in the family with ginger hair. Are postman HAS got ginger hair !!!!!!! What a great idea about the day course Becki...thanks sooo much huni xxxxxxxxxxx

IM A GINGE!!
i was really ginger orange when younger then it gradually got to a strawberry blonde colour but all thro school i got bullied about it so my mum did cap highlights when i was about 12. still very gingery tho cos you need a lot of blonde to get rid of ginger,sometimes it can emphasise it more. then when i became a hairdresser at 18 i had almost ful head of highlights bleach and was very blonde. but i realised i just looked washed out and finally ook the plunge a few years ago and went dark. now ive embraced the red and as from my avatar i have gone red/brown. it really suitsd me better and when ur older u see that and wear it with confidence.

i hope none of your children get bullied beacuse of it and can start to wear their hair with pride. i do think its worse for boys so just stick a few highlights in for him for him to gain his confidence then when hes older he may accept it.
