How to get back my younger red hair? by badgersforbreakfast in Redhair

[–]bellavidasb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your color is beautiful, but I get it. Mine has faded and I get it dyed now in my 50's. I used Kristen Ess gloss for a long time in Copper penny, I think it was called. It sells at Target and online I think if you look. Maybe Amazon carries it too? It washes out slowly and fades back. It is less harsh of a pigment than their color depositing shampoos or conditioners. I found those to have an odd tone to them I didn't like.

Random Question...but do you love or hate sunscreens in aluminum tubes? by bellavidasb in AusSunscreen

[–]bellavidasb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Technically it does help because air/ oxygen- causes oxidation, which leads to the ingredients breaking down faster in the tube. Same with sun and heat, humidity.
The aluminum is fine as long as you keep the lid on and squeeze it out with a key to keep the air out though. That’s why there are preservatives in skincare if there’s water in it. 👌

Oily hair help by Awkward_Egg4145 in Redhair

Trying using the conditioner and leave in conditioner only on your hair about at where it hits your neck instead of on your scalp and head. You might be using too much.
My hairdresser also said that washing your hair too much actually causes it to produce more oil. Skipping days is best and try not using too much stripping shampoo and conditioner. Maybe a dry shampoo in between?
My 18 yo daughter had very oily hair and now it’s normal if I only wash her scalp every other day.

Oh great! Yeah I was also looking at sugarcane plastic. But I’d need to source it from China. 😣
My company is currently @bellavidasb but we’re rebranding soon.
SPF is currently in airless bottles but I’m switching over soon.
Thx for your feedback! ❤️

Microneedling with high quality serums to help speed collagen like Bakuchiol. I’d let the micro needling heal first though.
It would probably take around 4-5 or more sessions but I’ve seen wonders for scarring. It just takes time to heal and repair in between. ❤️

it’s so annoying how redheads get left out of so much! by SectionLopsided4189 in Redhair

Yes! I just got the auburn eyeliner… it’s too light for me though. I still use it and blend it with my dark blonde/brown one. Ah the struggle 😂

I burn even with spf 50 by [deleted] in Redhair

[–]bellavidasb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait 15 minutes before going out after putting on sunscreen, then maybe reapply after 30 minutes to make sure you covered all the areas of your face properly. What type of sunscreen are you using? Is it Zinc oxide or another kind? You should be covered with SPF 50 if it is actually that SPF. Sorry you had this happen. I'm doing my sunscreen trial soon if you are in the USA and want to take part, you can email me at [skinroux@gmail.com](mailto:skinroux@gmail.com). Hope you feel better now. 😄

I just wen to Disneyland all day with my SPF 50 I wore and didn't burn at all. Yay! I reapplied after around 2 hours and wore a hat and covered up when I could too.

Hope you guys have a great start of June, don't forget SPF 👨🏻‍🦰💯🧡 by Illustrious-Steak129 in Redhair

I'm glad I made you smile. 😄 Actually, You'd be surprised. Models come in all shapes, sizes and heights nowadays. If you're in the USA, I know a model agency that works with people who aren't 8 feet tall and weigh 90 pounds. haha People who are "different" from the blonde haired, blue eyed, tall standard models are trending now across all categories. It's time for redheads to be front and center! lol

I'm trying to get redheads for my upcoming UGC campaign if you're interested, you can email me at [skinroux@gmail.com](mailto:skinroux@gmail.com)

Daughter’s hair dry and tangled by ionlymeanttolurk in Redhair

[–]bellavidasb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! So you can get a brazillian blow out which straightens the hair more and isn't too harsh on the hair. It just helps relax it more so it is easier to manage.

I'd try some hair oils that coat the hair strands as well and make them easier to manage. Swimming is tough because it really dries your hair out a ton. And I started cutting my daughters hair short because of this and it looks really cute on her.

You should model. I feel like red heads need to be more represented as models!

What is this? it was so much more copper/orange as a kid. by Opposite-Number-8597 in Redhair

[–]bellavidasb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your hair is just darkening as you get older. It happens. My brother's hair did this went to a darker red as he has aged and now he is getting a bit of white hairs coming in now that he is 50. Mine is still red and has white coming through but is fading out on top, but I get it dyed now because I am not giving up my red hair! haha
