For Kpop idols, regularly changing hair color is a thing that helps create a new and attractive feeling for fans. Changing hair color also sometimes makes their faces shine more when they find a hair color that suits them.
However, among the hair colors that Kpop idols dye, red is said to be the most "disaster" color even though many people have dyed it over the years. Recently, two experienced hairstylists for Kpop idols shared about this in a program on Youtube.
The two gave reasons for saying that it is the worst color for Kpop idols and hairstylists. Check them out below:
Changing hairstyles and hair color is soṃệẗḧing that most K-pop idols do on a regular basis. This helps refresh their image and create a vibe that matches the group's concept or the song they release.
There are many strange hair colors that have appeared in K-pop over the years besides natural black or brown hair, such as navy blue hair, 7-color hair, bleached blonde hair, smoky gray hair, pink hair, red hair ,...Make sure every time you see these hairstyles, you can't help but notice those idols.
Meanwhile, for fans, some hairstyles of Kpop artists have become trends for them to follow. However, when sharing about the hair colors favored by Kpop idols, two stylists Goya and Aeri prevented fans from learning to dye their hair red according to their idols. Two seasoned K-Pop hairstylists revealed it all in an interview with AYO.
Specifically, Goya and Aeri have worked with many K-Pop stars at several famous hair salons, including Jenny House in Gangnam. Their combined list of clients includes members of BTS, Wanna One, Super Junior, NU'EST, Fiestar, EXID, VIXX, and more. So, with all that experience, they revealed the problem that idols face when wearing that hairstyle.
But first, let's take a look at some of the Kpop idol names that have tried this hair trend over the years. From the top famous K-pop stars like V...
until TXT Taehyun, EXO Baekhyun,...
...to girl group stars like Red Velvet's Joy and aespa's Ningning...
They absolutely stand out with their fiery red hair like a mermaid! But the problem they face when dyeing this hairstyle is equally troublesome.
Goya and Aeri vehemently agreed that there was one main problem with red hair: color bleeding. Goya describes the disaster of this hair color: “After just one rehearsal, this kind of red dyeing will make your sweat bl00d". Of course it's not real вℓσσ∂, it's just dye flowing from the hair but it surely looks like.
Meanwhile, Aeri went on to explain that out of all the hair dye options, red dye seems to be the most prone to bleeding. So when idols sweat while performing, the dye gets mixed into it and when it comes out it's like dripping вℓσσ∂.
This is not uncommon, fans have also witnessed many such cases on stage. Some even mistakenly thought that idols were injured. Especially V, who used to dye his hair red right before the concert. As soon as he started to sweat, the color spilled out like вℓσσ∂.
But Aeri actually has her idol's red hair struggle story from her own experience to share. She explained that once she was working with EXID's Hani, who had long hair at the time. After dyeing her hair red, the color eventually ran out and stained her outfit, causing it to spoil. This is really difficult for everyone and especially the stylist director jokingly said to her: "Do you hate me...?" because of this incident.
In addition, besides making sweat red and clothes dyed, red hair bleeds means stylists have to dye it over and over again to keep it vibrant for a long time. That makes the process of dyeing hair more time-consuming and labor-intensive than ever. Goya shared, "Members shed вlσσd and sweat, and I shed tears".
It can't be denied that red is hard to keep color, easy to flow, causes costume disasters or misunderstandings about sweat as well as damages idols' hair, but when they dye their hair red, it makes absolutely their visual outstanding and prominent!
