Review: Doesn't fade - I’ve tried more red hair dyes than I care to admit — and this one truly stands out. The color is rich, bold, and gets compliments daily. Even after multiple washes it doesn’t fade like most reds I’ve used before. The application was straightforward, the shade matched my skin tone and hair base beautifully, and the result looked professionally done. My hair still feels healthy (not crispy or overly processed) and the pigment remains strong. I also appreciate that the formul seemed to have good staying-power and didn’t wash out or turn brassy quickly. Highly recommend this for anyone who wants a red tone that lasts.
Review: My hair is soft! The color is bright! My hair looks healthy! - This is a very dark color. I was looking for a dark color. I dyed my hair yesterday. I made the mistake of picking the wrong color. This is the black cherry. I have to say I’m not mad about it! I’ve already received a lot of compliments on it. I color my hair all the time myself with pinks, reds, purples and even oranges. This is the first time I have ever gone this dark. I was a natural blonde but as I get older that started to become mousey and of coarse I have grays. (I’m 61) Those colors washed me out now. I made the mistake with the last color to dye with an ask brown color and then the dark color and it didn’t stay because my hair had already been saturated leaving no space for the new color to absorb into the strands. That washed out very quickly. I’m really hoping this lasts for me. I haven’t washed it again yet. If it doesn’t last, it will probably be because of my already dyed hair and then I will bleach it and try again. I won’t blame the dye. So far I am happy with the brand which I have used in the past but I’m not someone who is loyal to just a brand. I try all of them. My hair feels very soft! It smells great! My husband even told me I smelled good. I think he thought I had perfume on. LOL! I say buy it. Try it. Make sure you’ve left enough time from the last dye job to let the color to saturate your hair. I am not a stylist. I do not have a license. I’m just someone getting older who wants to have fun with her hair while she has it and feel younger and pretty. Changing up my hair makes me feel good. Plus it’s fun! It’s just hair. It can be changed. It can also be lost in life. Enjoy it while you have it! Just give it a little love with some TLC hair conditioners here and there. The after conditioner provided with this brand is wonderful! I wish they sold it separately! My pics are in bright light and regular light. Very dark in lower light. Bright in bright light.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work on African American hair?**
A: I don't see why not.  It is a rich colorant that colored my hair beautifully and I have thick wavy hair.  Good luck!!

**Q: Is this color an actual red or is it maroon as one reviewer said (and loved that it was maroon)?  i do not want any maroon or purple, just red.**
A: I have read a lot of the questions and reviews on here about this red color being more of a purple. Seems the blame is being put on the manufacturer of the color. You can look at the back of the box and it will show natural color examples and then what the new red will look like after the dye is applied. The same scenario applies here to the different color combinations of makeup. Those boxes only give a few color examples when there is an array of natural hair colors, hence the color level number. Also, if you have very dark hair then the red can only show so much. If you seek to have a bright red color with dark hair then you will most likely need to lighten first. You also have to keep in mind what happens with the mixing colors. For example, Ash blonde sometimes looks green because it does not mix well with the original color. The color spectrum applies here so always research what you are mixing with your own color, ESPECIALLY IF YOUR HAIR IS ALREADY PREVIOUSLY DYED, because some colors if mixed together will not give you the results on the model on the front of the box. My niece tried bleaching her hair and it turned out a very bright yellow. When I went to sallys to get the stuff to help her get it back brown I chose a mid level brown but I also bought red and did 1:4 ratio with the red being the 25 percent added to the brown. This balanced out her new brown perfectly!

**Q: My hair is dark black, will it work or I have to bleach first? th x**
A: Is it black brown like the last picture on the back? That's usually how I can tell if a color is going to be too light or dark on me. If your hair is very dark, the red is probably going to show up faintly, like in the sun or bright lighting. I'm wary of at-home bleaching processes, but if you are hoping for more of the red, you will probably need to lighten first. If you have previously colored your hair though and that's why it's dark, I would pick up Color Oops Color Prep. It will release the previous coloring molecules before you color with a new color. It's a long, stinky process, but I do that when I am changing color. Hope this helps.

**Q: Why can't I subscribe to Mahogany Red?**
A: Not sure, but they sell it at walmart

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best for gray coverage that also lasts long too!
*by P***. on October 25, 2025*

Thank you, Schwarzkopf! Best dye that is true to color and lasts long too. Others fade fast. This one I have been using for over 3 years and it looks beautiful on me. Super great at covering grays! It is the only brand that does a black cherry and that also lasts pretty long too. My hair is naturally dark brown, so this color is exactly what I wanted to achieve and it worked! Yes I highly recommend this brand and this color, sometimes it's on sale, but regular price can run you close to $15 a box. Please keep making some more of this color, for me 😄😄😄!
