How I Nailed Bold Red Under Black Hair (And Avoided a Color Catastrophe!)

Ever dreamed of that peekaboo pop of red under jet-black hair, but worried you’d end up with a splotchy mess? Been there! The first time I tried, I underestimated the prep—and let’s just say, my towels paid the price. 💡 Start with unwashed hair (yep, a little grease is your friend!) to protect your scalp from dye and bleach. 📌 Section like a pro: Use clips and foil to keep the black and red layers separate. Decide how much drama you want—thicker black on top for subtlety, or more red for a bold reveal. ⚠️ Bleach is no joke! Only bleach the bottom layer, and if you’re new, ask a friend or go slow. Rinse with cool water to lock in color. ✅ Maintenance is key: Use sulfate-free shampoo, deep condition weekly, and refresh the red as it fades—no need to re-bleach every time!
