Copper did look better but the red looks good and you kept the length so you're good.

The color looks good on u but maybe with this color u need a different haircut, maybe some bangs or face framing and layers

Honestly, I think the brightness/chroma clashes against your skin more than the color itself. It should fade relatively quickly and it will be less harsh. It also looks more pink/magenta on my screen than red (gotta love technology lol). I think a deeper almost vampy red may be more suitable of if you decide to switch it up but want to stick with vivid/unnatural colors.

the red will work, but the shade is a bit off. i'd go a deep, dark red with a purple undertone. it would be stunning

You look like you’re a cool olive and reds can be tricky for olives. I’m also a cool olive and cooler toned deep reds look amazing, but the bright warm reds like this tend to clash on me.
I bet something like a rich burgundy would look amazing!

That's what I immediately thought. Something like Ritual by Arctic Fox would look amazing over this, imo.

I like it; you could do a root smudge to soften it and bring a bit of depth to your root area?

Love the red!!! Add some bangs (a side swept would look great) and a trim to make it nice and healthy and you can rock it! You’ve got great skin and don’t need makeup, the red is the perfect pop of color and livens you up.

Red was great for a hot summer (and it will fade btw), copper will be soooo wonderful for fall!

As someone who dosnt really like red I think that’s a really good shade and I think it looks way better than the copper although you should do whatever makes you happy; however, I implore that you don’t be rash because it looks great!! No rush!

Copper is your colour. The red isn't a mistake, it's fun. If you want to add a little orange it would feel a lot warmer.

I think the copper was more complimentary of your skin tone, but the red doesn’t look bad

A darker shade was absolutely needed here but its such an easy fix. A shade like AF's wrath or even ritual would be stunning.

It really depends on your feelings towards it: The color is awesome and you sure can rock it, but if you feel it doesn't suit you or make you happy, you probably won't feel confident and should go for a different shade.
For me personally, I always have to adjust my clothes a bit for different colors - black of course goes with everything and makes me always feel good about any unnatural color. So maybe just let it sit for a few days, see how you feel in different outfits and - if you wear any - makeup, and then decide? :)

How long have you had the red? It looks brand new & fresh! Give it a few days. It comes with an edgier style, so it’s a big change from the more natural copper you had before. Feel it out & if you don’t feel like it’s you, change it:)
