Great tips, even for brunettes. I'm glad you didn't tell everyone to just "go to the salon" like most u tubers. A lot of women can't afford nor want to rely on a salon.
exhibitjean thank you! As much as I LOVE my hair stylist for cuts (he does the best!) I actually have found that I prefer my color at home. It just works better for my schedule and is really affordable, considering I have to color every 3-6 weeks. In glad it helped you too!
It makes me feel better to see that you are re-coloring as early as 3 weeks. That's usually what I have to do. My daughter used to do it for me and she moved out, so now it's the hubby. My daughter gave him a crash course, haha. In order to not make the poor man have to color my hair every 3 weeks, I touch up the most visible places myself (eyebrows, temples, forehead hairline, and where I part my hair), and then 2 to 3 weeks later he will do my whole head. God bless him :)
That's a keeper!! What a sweetheart :)
Kudos for the video content! Sorry for the intrusion, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you tried - Millawdon Goodbye Gray Trick (Sure I saw it on Google)? It is a smashing exclusive guide for learning how to reverse gray hair fast without the normal expense. Ive heard some great things about it and my BF after a lifetime of fighting got great results with it.
Agreed , I hate it when you go to a salon and they are sniffy about you colouring yourself give us a break we had to when everywhere was shut.
I just did this exact formula on my medium brown hair (used 30 developer). I already had old highlights and some red streaks but wanted to be strawberry blonde! I am so happy with the results!! I have some natural red in my hair, I really wanted to lift my color so I went with Level 30 developer for 45 minutes and my hair is gorgeous! It's a little more red, sort of reminds me of Christina Hendricks' strawberry blonde hair. Thank you so much Molly!!!
Also, I have shorter hair and had quite a bit left over mixture, so we added the rest of the red and sunlight blonde brown, a bit more developer and used it for my cousins hair (who had dark brown hair). It turned out a really pretty coppery color and she loves it! So we got a 2 in 1! Thanks again!!
Thank you
Did it overlapping on already colored hair
You are the reason I have been a ginger for a year now! I absolutely love the color, and have never felt more myself in a hair color.
Agh!!!! Thank you, that's so exciting. I really love that the formula has been a help to you! xo
Touching up tonight for a wedding tomorrow, and I'm so excited! Always love touch up day. I feel like a new person every time!
Same, after touching up I'm always like THIS IS THE PERSON I AM MEANT TO BE. haha!
I'm so happy to hear that this color has worked out for you!! That'd awesome. It's nice to know that this formula has worked for other gals and that you love it so much! :)
Ever since seeing your UA-cam video two years ago I have been coloring my hair with different-amount-combinations of the Wella Color Charm that you have been showing. My preferred formula is 4 parts of the golden blonde to 1 part Titian Red Blonde. I get compliments on my hair all the time and most people think I am a real redhead. Thank you, Molly!
Thank you, Elke! So nice to hear that the formula is working for you too. It's the best when people think it's natural, right? Thank you for sharing your mix, it helps everyone out to hear different amounts!

Hello 👋
This hair color is absolutely gorgeous!! It's not bright or brassy. What a lovely shade. Thank you for all the details.
Dear Molly ! Finally I found a great solution to replace my favorite Wella koleston perfect 8/04. This color I could find only in Europe last years , however it already gone from Wella chart. I had a lot of fall attempts to get my lovely color , but all of them had the really bad results.
A few days ago I found your channel and I’m so happy !
Today I used your formula successfully , thank you so much ! I can see my hair as was few years ago!
Thank you Molly so much ! Keep doing women’s life magical!
I've actually changed my hair this colour. Thanks I get lots of compliments
Hey Molly! I just used this formula on my hair and it turned out SOOOO good! I had to use a little more 8G because my hair was a little too "red" and it lightened it up perfectly. I will use this formula from now on! :) Thank you for sharing this!!!
I just used your exact formula but cut the quantity in half since my hair is shorter than yours and it turned out perfect. I love the color, thanks so much for sharing!
Hi Susan,
That is awesome, I'm SO happy to hear that the formula worked for you too. :) xo - Molly
Susan, what base tone you did on, did you have yet colored hair or virgen hair ?
Another great thing for grey coverage that doesn't change the color too much is mixing a Neutral or double neutral in with red based colors, so same level colors, using a N or NN based color, wella carries both, add a tiny bit of that in with your color instead of the 7G, unless you want the depth of the 7G.
Just an option for resistant greys. That's what i recommend all my clients do.
That's awesome, thank you for sharing! The neutral didn't work out for me (I tried it once before) but it might work for someone who isn't as grey/white as me.
I prefer more of a light golden strawberry blonde, so I use 9G and 8RG. My natural hair is about 6/7NW so I lighten about 2-3 shades so a 20 vol developer works for me. If your hair is 3-4 darker than your ideal shade, then you might want use 30 vol. The ratio I use is 2 parts 9G to 1 part 8RG. I use a mixing bowl so I just use kitchen utensils to measure the color, so for example I might mix 2 tbsp of 9G, 1 tbsp of 8RG, and 6 tbsp of developer.
Thanks a lot
Thank you, Molly! I went from a golden blonde and tweaked your formula a little and I'm happy with the color to start. I only used 1 ounce of the 8rg, and 2 ounces of the 8g with 20 developer for 20 minutes. The color isn't exactly where I want it to be, but it's a big change and it'll be a good stepping stone. I think if I would have left the formula on for longer the color would be darker and closer to where I want it.
Use a 10 because the 20 is probably lifting your hair with the 8g that's what my stylist told me
Molly, I use your formula for my strawberry blonde hair. I'm naturally a red head, but as I get grays, this is the perfect formula! Thank you!!!! I recently read that if you mix 10v developer with 20v developer it will make 15v, which is perfect for long lasting red color! I'll try it and update:). Thank you for sharing this formula and tweaks with us red headed gals! We have to stick together. Your hair is lovely btw!
Wow, that's a great trick with the developer!!
Been trying to find some way to get my natural red hair back, strawberry blonde really, I miss it! And I hate bleaching my hair constantly. Thank you for uploading this! You are heaven sent. Can't wait to go back strawberry blonde.
Oh that's wonderful! I really hope this formula works for you so you can go back to your natural strawberry blonde!! xo There is a post on the blog about transitioning blonde hair to red also.
I started out with extremely dark hair almost black, I went to the salon had a colour remover and then l'oreal inoa 7.42 and I love it
L'oreal INOA is such a great line!!
Helpful video! Thank you Beautiful Molly!!!!
Im so excited to tweak my own formula of 8rg and 8g soon!!!! I'm a level 8 golden blonde. Also I've previously used 8rg and my hair turned out super copper red, I loved it!!! But I wanted more of a strawberry blonde 😣 so this video was super helpful for me! I'm thinking on doing 1/2 an ounce of 8rg and a whole tube of 8g just to be on the safe side, I don't want my hair turning out too red this time. Wish me luck 😍
How did it turn out? xo Molly
Wow lovely very professional at home and beautiful colour 💖
How kind! Thank you, Kery :)
I have been using your exact Wella Charm formula for months now and am still so happy. I am so glad you posted the link about those damn bottles. So hard to find!!
Thank you, that's so wonderful to hear! And yes, it's the most simple bottle, but hard to track down. Glad the link helped :) xo Molly
Gorgeous!Remind me of young Ann Margret!
Hi Liz, thank you!!! That's a huge compliment!
Exactly!
Oh my goodness! Your color is gorgeous. I'll try to dye my hair at home (finally!) and I'm gonna follow all your steps. Thanksss!
Hi Molly I've been using and ABTING your formula for over 3 years and here is what I know for sure. Wella only makes 20 vol. developer, at least that I've ever seen and I've tried mixing other brands level 10 developer with the formula (for ends only) and it just doesn't come out as good. Also I've noticed the same as you, my ends are always a bit darker. I have to do my hair every 4 weeks because I hate that line you see when the roots and grays come in. Thank you for putting this online, best advice ever!!
I have mousy light brown hair naturally. I just use the 8 N on my roots and it comes out golden reddish blond. Perfect strawberry blond hair. It would look brassy on some skin tones, but it works for me, looks great!
Sounds so pretty!
What line do you use? This is my natural hair too and the color I’m going for!
You are an ANGEL. Seriously, you are a total lifesaver and your videos are everythinggggg XOXOXO
If your starting out from 8 blonde or lighter dont use 20 volume it lifts to.much from the 8g use 10 because it only deposits and you may wanna use more of the 7g but that is just my advice but the 10 volume is defiantly important I feel like I have pink hair now and my stylists said the 20 volume on my hair was probably the cause unless you have greys you don't really need 20.volume for permanent dye
What if I have orange copper hair should I bleach first ?
Thank you! I am a strawberry blond but as Im getting older its turning white! I like the different dimensions in my hair and dont want a solid color, do you have any suggestions?
So, I'm a natural strawberry blonde and the blessing for those of us heading rapidly into our later years is that we often don't go grey. However, my eyebrows and eyelashes are a combination of SB with a smattering of white in my brows. I used to get my eyelashes dyed a blue-black, which was fine with blue eyes, but the BB home dye is pants, so I now use a dark brown home colour and use it on my brows as well, because the light brown home dye doesn't work either (on my hair). I'm happy with the DB on my eyelashes because I use mascara as well anyway - it just gives extra definition (and helps me to see where to put the mascara when I'm wearing my contact lenses), but I'd love to find a good dye for my brows that will give me a colour that will give me definition without being as harsh as the DB. I'm not expecting you to solve that problem for me - I'm really just pointing out that getting the right colour for us strawberry blondes is problematical too, because genuine SB hair doesn't take colour well and has the risk of going horribly wrong.
I've actually been bleaching mine with the Sally Hansen brow and face bleach (remember this drugstore classic? ha!) and I feel like it warms up my brows to match my hair better and also blends the grey and white hairs in. Maybe this is worth a try for you too?
I have dark hair do I have to be blonde first to have this color
I did the formula and it was on a level 9 blonde and it turned a soft pink, like strawberry pastel. Going to try the 7g and 8rg and see if that gives the desired result. I was also thinking of subbing in a cool tone or neutral. Love this video and your strawberry blonde is my dream hair!
Hi Bethany! I'm so happy to hear you are willing to keep testing and trying! This post might help | girlgetglamorous.com/how-to-transition-blonde-to-strawberry-blonde-hair/

Beautiful color. It looks natural.
Thank you, I appreciate that!!
girlgetglamorous - Molly very natural looking. you are very welcome.😊

Thank you, Denize! This post might be helpful: girlgetglamorous.com/how-to-transition-blonde-to-strawberry-blonde-hair/
Hi I love your video pretty color ,if I have red hair color and I want this color should I bleach my hair?
This is my dream hair color. But idk is it possible to have this results. I'm naturally between 6-7 shade level.
When you have gray you have to add a neutral. Substitute the 8g for an 8n
will this change the finished colour?
Hi can you please tell me where else I can buy the dye? I’m in uk and for some reason Sally’s uk does not sell them xx
Hi! eBay is a great place to get hair color, especially if sellers ship internationally! | rstyle.me/+Y9LJS8ofsE43N6eynh_JzQ
girlgetglamorous - Molly thank you ☺️
i love your hair color i love your color . mine turn out with some purble!
Love the color but ,would how would i do formula for short hair cut to the jaw line and how much developer.
Hi there, you can just cut the formula in half - use half the amount of each shade and developer. Or make the full amount and throw out what you don't use. (Opened color tubes can't be held on to anyhow, they color will go bad) :)
What is your natural root color and did you have to bleach it for the dye to take?
Hi! This video might help answer everything! ua-cam.com/video/GOHpNCTODqA/v-deo.html :) - Molly
love your hair color, I have always been blonde. I would love to try strawberry blonde, but I am concerned about the lasting time. Do you find your hair colour turns rusty, do you have to uar special shampoo? thank you loving your colour!
that color makes your eyes pop. very becoming on you. thank you for sharing. my mother was a licensed cosmetologist I unfortunately did not take after her.
Thank you! I love this color too. :) My fav out of all I've tried!!
Wella illumina I have on mine at the hairdressers can’t get wella charm in the UK 😏
As a cosmetologist let me explain about partings are very important instead of adding processing liquid to blow open the cuticle take thinner partings instead. Sometimes to thick of partings especially with covering grey can be the reason you patchy color.

Gr8 Tip! Thank you for
sharing your wealth of professional information!
I have this hair color naturally but it's a lot more brassy. Do you think if I were to tone my hair that it would make it more like yours?
You could add a few drops of green food coloring to your shampoo to tone the brassiness down :)
@@girlgetglamorous Or blue shampoo.
Omg I love your hair!!!!!
Thank you, Essie!
your hair looks amazing.
Thank you, you are so kind!
please whats the exact name of the hair color and amount of peroxid?
If you have a darker color, can you do a whole head with this color? Or will it give hot roots?
Hi Beth! I'm not a colorist, just a gal sharing my own hair color formula. So I really can't say what you should do exactly, and most colorists would only give a formula after seeing your hair in person. It's definitely worth trying once, if it comes out too hot at roots, you could always try adding a bit more of the 7G color into the formula. I hope this helps and you get a great color! - Molly
girlgetglamorous - Molly
Thanks!
I looooove your hair color!
Thank you!!
I can’t find the Wella colours on the uk site, do you know of any that are the same but uk version?

Hi, is there any difference between Wella colour charm gel and Wella colour charm liquid? I mean by colouring the hairs. Its difficult in europe get this 3 colours in gel.
I just asked this at Sally’s the other day and they said there is no difference.
Hi Gracja! Sorry for my delayed reply. The only difference is the texture, gel vs liquid. I find the gel formula covers my grey roots better. I hope this helps! - Molly
I am a natural medium brown and I really want to use your formula, I love the color. do you think maybe a 30 developer will work better for me? or do I have to pre light my hair?
I think 20 will probably work best for you :) It's the standard. 30 is more more deep brunettes trying to go much lighter.
Hi Molly, so I colored my hair using Wella Color Charm. I used 1 once of 8RG and 2 once of 8G. The color came out great, absolutely beautiful. I am so amazed but unfortunately I noticed a significant hair loss. I guess ammonia is not good for my hair. I am so disappointed because I really like the color. Can you suggest other brands that do not use such harsh chemicals? Thanks!!!!
Hi love - I'm so sorry to hear that. I would definitely check in with a doctor/allergist before doing any more color just to lock down the exact ingredients to avoid :)
Molly question... I have a light ashy blondish/brown root and 50% gray. If I were to use 9G instead of the 8G do you think that it would pick up lighter blonde? This is what I'm aiming for since you have more gray than me. Let me know if you ever tried that or thoughts... TY :)
I haven't tried that, but you probably would get a lighter strawberry blonde shade! I would use less of the 8RG with the 9G so that the formula doesn't turn too peach or pink.
hey my hair is highlighted im wondering if I should use less of the red since my hair is soo light any thoughts
Hi Amber! I'm not a licensed colorist, so I can't give specific advice, but here is what I've done in the past on myself: girlgetglamorous.com/how-to-transition-blonde-to-strawberry-blonde-hair/ I hope it's helpful!! xo - Molly
amber lindsay did you try this formula on your light hair?
I want to do this your hair is the exact color I am wanting but I have gone through the videos and you talk about how long to leave on roots and then only 15 for the rest of my hair, but how long will I put it on if I am coloring for the very first time? Will I just put it all over for 40min??
Hi Keira! For the first time coloring, I put all over for 30 minutes for no greys, or 40 minutes all over with grey hair.
@@girlgetglamorous Thank you so much for replying! You are gorgeous! Love your videos!
Hola !Buenos tardes!Quise preguntar como puedo saber en su formula de uncias por gramos de la tintura.Gracias!
Hola! Here are all the posts with the exact ounces of each shade :) | girlgetglamorous.com/master-post-of-strawberry-blonde-dye-hair-posts-links-photos
Omg I really love your hair
If I am naturally a little darker than a strawberry blonde would you still recommend this formula I tried using sevenRC straight up but it was just too orange it for me
I would definitely try it, you can always tweak the formula to suit you (add a bit more of the red color, etc)
Love this video! You are beautiful and so is your hair 😊 Do you have any advice for someone going from a level 5 brown to this shade? Trying to figure out if I should use a 20 or 30 volume developer. Thanks! 😘
Hi Carly! I would stick with 20V to start, the higher the developer #, the more it can cause damage. I hope this helps!
Gorgeous color
Molly's formula halped me find "my best formules". lm don't have so much white hair and last time im try from "indola" 1 ounes 8.34 "light blonde gold cooper" and 2 ounce - 9.83" very light blonde chocolate gold ) and 3 ounce- 20 vol. and im like my result ! Thank you Molly for your recommendations ! :)
Hi Fata, I'm so glad your formulas has turned out wonderful for you! xo
Hi. I love your content! I have always read that one needs to include an n color to cover gray, but your formula does not contain an n. Any comment on that? Thanks!
How could I get this mixture with Wella Koleston or Majirel? Color Charm is not sold in my country. Thank you
Hi Tricia! Here is a post on international formulas. :) girlgetglamorous.com/strawberry-blonde-hair/
I have naturally strawberry blond hair and I HATE IT SO MUCH...this video is making me rethink....I never imagined there are people out there colouring their hair strawberry blond on purpose.
Calling Any professional hair stylists: if my hair is already color treated an orange copper tone do I need to bleach my hair first? Another question, would 20 vol developer be good enough for light brown roots?
I love love love L'Oréal excellence color in 7G which is dark golden blonde but gives the most beautiful red ⭐⭐⭐⭐ and I am 100% gray.... white in some areas . I leave it on 45 minutes and get a TON of compliments on it
Loreal has a new color shade, Light Reddish Blonde 9GR it's a very pretty reddish blonde with golden highlights. It's recommended for dark blonde to blonde hair for perfect color.
I'm grey & white - I'd like to try out a strawberry blond - would this wash out ok?
hi Molly I was so excited to find your channel last night I was a redhead for years and then the last 4 years went back to blonde because of the gray and once I realize that you had gray hair and we're doing red I thought yeah I want to go back red or strawberry blonde I really don't like the blonde I only did it because I was getting gray so I'm so glad that I watched your video and saw your results and I am heading to the store today LOL I find your videos to be extremely helpful I'm so glad that you do this thank you Lisa
Hi Lisa! I'm SO happy to hear that! Have you tried it yet? I hope it came out great!!
Make sure before one colors that your hair is dry , all dry or the color wont grab properly . Especialy the roots and if your hot or sweaty dry your hair first.
Hello beautiful Molly! Thanks for another great video :) Your hair seems lighter here than in your previous strawberry blonde video ( where you first share the wella formula). Also on your instagram pics, you seem so much blonder now! But then I watched your extensions video about red shades and if the "signature" shade is the one based on your color, it's darker than I thought!
The "blonder" shade it's too light for me and I'm still trying to achieve the perfect shade based on your color but sometimes I'm confused :) I know it's nearly impossible to pin down an EXACT shade cause it changes so much with different lights...
Hi! The lighting can be so tricky. I can take 3 photos in 3 different locations on the same day and my color will look totally different in each one based on lighting and the time of day.
Have you tried this current formula? It's the one I use every 5-6 weeks for my color. It comes out a bit darker than my old 8RG and 8G formula.
xo - Molly
I saw this pic looking for hair dyes I looking to go darker than the titan red what is a good match I was thinking 8/43 and the 7/03 and 8/03
I’m so annoyed. This is the hair color I’ve been wanting and no salon listens to me. At first I had highlighted hair and asked for this color and it came out DARK brown with a tiny reddish cast. Then it faded and I went to another cosmetologist and told her what happened this time it came out red but medium to dark mahogany/copper red when I specifically asked for a medium or lighter natural copper red so I’m about ready to strip it and try myself.
Hi Molly! I did my hair yesterday! Loved it, but my hair was already a super copper like bright penny orange. It toned it down a little bit which is definitely what I want, but I am almost wondering if next time I should add less of the 8G?? I wish I could show you a picture of my color! I am thinking maybe I need to do more of the blondish brown to tone the orange down??
So is the 8g what makes its the orange color ? Did you try the brown to tone it down did it help ?
For the left over color, can you reuse the next time you color?
Janelle Smith I'm not a professional but I don't think so since it keeps processing the longer you leave it out. Unless it's not out of its container or mixed with other dyes/chemicals. I would search that though.
Hi Janelle, sorry somehow just seeing this! Sometimes, I will use color that is left in the metal tube the next time I color, up to 6 weeks later. But color that has been mixed with developer I throw out as it won't "keep." I hope this helps!
Gorgeous colour! Wish I have gut to go for this shade lol 😍😂
Ha, let me know if you try it!!
Grt color video. What lipstick are you wearing w this color?
Thank you! I can't remember - it might have been the Circa beauty lipstick in Ava which is sadly now discontinued. Similar shade is the Charlotte Tilbury in pillow talk: rstyle.me/n/c9fvdybb7df
i love your hair colour it exactly what i want but cant get those colours in australia. i have looked up even on ebay and the koleston ones but nit available. cant even get it shipped with amazon :( so sad. wish i could copy you!
what do you do when you cant find the 7G color?? i can not find it in a cream online...or at sallys..not even amazon

@@girlgetglamorous Thank you Molly! It was very helpful😉
just tried your original formula and I love it- however it's a little too dark. What do you recommend as far as altering the formula to make it a little lighter? I believe I used a whole tube of the 8G, half a tube of the 8RG, and 1/4 of a tube of the 7G with 7oz of 20vol developer.
Hi! I would take the amount of 7G way down. I only use about 4-5 pea size drops to deepen my formula up. I think the formula in this video would probably work for you. 2 oz of 8G 1.5 of 8RG and 4-5 pea size drops of 7G, 7 oz level 20 developer :)
I'm curious, i'm putting this over bleached blonde hair. my real hair color is red, but i'm hoping to achieve the color you get. would i need to use a lower developer, like 10 volume to get this look? and, do you think it is wise to put on over processed blonde? i just want my strawberry red back.. so over this blonde. i am also 90% gray as well.

Thank you very much. Definitely going to give out a whirl this weekend!!
Awesome, please let me know how it goes! Also, if you want to share your formula and results in the comments of that blog post, that would be awesome. I know a lot of people have found that comment section super helpful!!
Molly, I used your most current formula with 7G 4-5 drops. Still came out darker red, I am 100% I think. So wondering how many more drops of blonde would seem appropriate? Thanks for sharing
Hi! Have you washed it yet? It takes me about 3 washes until I get to the perfect strawberry blonde. It comes out a bit dark on me at first as well.
Where do you get your hair products from?
Hi Elizabeth! I get them from Sally's, if you click on "Show More" below the video above, all the products are linked to make it easier to shop exactly what I use. xo Molly
When u use the 7g what do u mean by a drop
I usually add 5 drops that are each about the size of a frozen pea. I posted photos on the blog of the size if thats helps!
I'm from Brazil and I never find this formula :c
your hair is the best, really
Thank you! Search the blog for my post on Strawberry Blonde for International shoppers. It has a Wella dupe... xo
Hi. I have changed my hair colour into a strawberry blonde. I'm using L'oreal at the moment and make my own mixture. I did not have to much choice as unfortunately all wella available in the uk have different numbers so I was confused and decided to use L'oreal instead at the moment. Do you have any idea what the wella UK numbers are an equivalent to US ones. I wll appreciate a help.
Yes, there is a post on the blog for international readers :) Search "international strawberry blonde" on the blog at www.GirlGetGlamorous.com I hope it helps!
what color of your extensions matches this color best? 29/30? 28? or 31?
Ashley McCarthy hi Ashley! Shade 31 is a perfect match for me with this color formula. That's the shade I'm wearing here :)
Great video. What shampoo do you use to maintain great color?
Thank you, Esther! I use shampoo from alfaparf. They used to have a great color shampoo but it was discontinued, so now I use their frizz free line and love it! This is the one I get, I buy the liter size, but they have 8 oz sizes if you want to try it first for around $12. rstyle.me/n/cufs9cbb7df
I have lightened my hair to like a level 9-10 with bleach and it’s just too light for me and not me. I love this color, I think it would look great with my freckles. Would my hair turn green if I try to go to this shade since my hair is so light?
It wont turn green bc of the red
@@nayla_bl I ended up doing it and yes you’re right, it never turned green. Thank you 😊
@@meglouise4279 hope it looks beautiful
Hi! Has anyone done this formula on level 8-9 blonde hair. Just with the 8G and 8RG and 10 vol? Or 7G and 8RG please let me know!
Yea it came out pink def need the 7g and I made the mistake of using 20 volume won't ever do that again 😒 it def ruins the color if your starting blonde like I did it dis come out very orange so I'll be adding more 7g next time
@@shewolfbabe3419 awww thank you for the reply! Much appreciated. I ended up using Redken instead just because it was easier for me to come by but almost same formula
I've been watching your videos for years, your hair always looks stunning.
I'm over in the UK and I managed to find these exact colours but price is doubled with shipping costs 😢
So...i'm just checking that I heard you right. I'll need to use a whole tube of the golden blonde?
I was hoping I could get a few colourings at least out of these tubes.
I'm so excited to try this as I used to be a natural strawberry blonde before I ruined my hair with too much bleach and straightening over the years. Going grey now!
Hi Phoebe and thank you for being a part of the channel for so many years! You actually don't have to use the same Wella Color Charm color, just make sure you are using the same shade numbers. So 8rg (reddish blonde), 8g (golden blonde), and 7g (dark golden blonde). I hope that makes sense! You can usually find Wella in Europe, I can't remember the name of the product. But if you head to a beauty supply store and ask for those three shades, they should be able to help you find a match in Wella, Loreal, or another brand. I also recommend trying ebay! Let me know how it works out for you! | rstyle.me/+Yvka7Ii3jDW3kXR8_jhjHw
@@girlgetglamorous That's really helpful. Thank you 😘
Molly! You hair is absolutely stunning! So, after I watched this video (literally 3 times!) I got a Salley's card and bought the colors. I'm super nervous because the last time I went red, I absolutely hated It! However, it was a much deeper, darker, vintage red and I'm hoping this suits me better. My question for you is this: My roots are darker than the length of my hair. Do you have any suggestions to lift my roots so that the color is even?
Did this formula work for you?
Molly, did you try L’Oreal INOA? If you did please share what shades you used. Thanks!!!
HI there! Yep, I've tried it, here is my experience with INOA: girlgetglamorous.com/strawberry-blonde-hair-my-epic-journey-part-3-the-copper-chronicles/
Thank you Molly! You are so helpful!!!
