I want to dye my hair crimson
Hai! I'm an 11 year old girl and I would like to dye my hair crimson. Or at least dye the ends/half of it crimson. I have always admired it ever since I was 9, because I loved the way it looked on my mom. Here are my only problems about it:
1. Well it cause my (dark brown curly) hair to damage and fall out?
2. Will my hair change colors?
3. Are there any sprays that can make your hair look crimson/maroon when it touches sun?
Those are a few simple questions I have about it. Thanks! :D

I had a daughter when just a bit older than you wanting to dye the tips of her hair lime green. SHe'd seen it on a female singer and loved it. Her hair is brunette but straight. We did use the bleach first and figured that at the worst, if something went wrong and it fried her hair that she'd only lose the two inches and her hair was real long. When she was much younger, about 9, she wanted lighter brown to blonde hair and I wasnt about to use a harsh dye on her. But decided that the lemon as a way to lighten the hair wasn't as harsh or bad. It gets to be messy doing that, sticky too. So we searched around and found a product called Sun In, its still out there but not everyone carries it. Its labeled to be for blondes to help lighten their hair but it did so for my daughter, so well that one day a lady walks up to me and says, your daughter just fell and needs you. I say where, She points, isn't that blond girl over there your daughter? It finally struck me that indeed her hair had turned a dark blonde from using that product. Its not the fast way to go but you could just spray it on your ends while your hair is dampened and combed out, and once the ends are obviously lighter, then use the crimsom on them. good luck. It should look pretty.

Since your hair (like mine) is dark brown and curly you may find a problem with getting the dye to show through. be best results usually come from bleaching the hair first and then dying it however this can cause major damage and split ends.
a more natural way of lighting your hair is to use lemon juice. squeezing a lemon and then putting the liquid onto your hair will lighten it naturally and less damage will be caused. this means that when you do dye your hair the red will show up better and the end result will look more professional. the only problem with the lemon juice is that it takes a long time to work properly.
an alternative to this is buying crimson hair extensions and clipping them in under the bottom layers of your hair. this mens that no damage will be done to the hair and you can remove them whenever. but hair extensions are also expensive and its
not as permanent as i suspect you would want.
in answer to your feed back, the lemon juice does take a few months to make a noticeable difference, you would also want to apply it regularly and it works best then in direct sunlight.
hope this is informative and gives you a few options to consider. good luck and i hope it turns out great.
