Red head wig color problems.
I cant figure out what color I should get to match the hair color of Amy Pond. she has natural bright red orange hair. but I'm afraid that any wig i pick might be to orange and fake looking.
can anyone help me pick a color from Cosworx wig color selection that would match her hair? http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4067/...9d820d5a92.jpg sorry...this picture moves but it shows her hair well. http://static.tumblr.com/dwxeqfl/FS7...ond_pretty.gif

Her hair colour is a more copper red that matches both Henne Red found in the Newlook line and Shop.Coplays Natural Red shade.

Arda's Light Copper Red is a nice bright blended colour that you could dye a little darker with fabric dye. The Dark Copper Red may be close enough without dyeing, but it may not be red enough.

Ehhh, IMO her hair color is somewhere between Cosplay.com's Natural Red and Dark Orange. It's a lot more coppery-toned than Natural Red, but Dark Orange is not red enough. For a realistic look the choice would be Natural Red, but it doesn't look like a good match to me. (I've got the swatch ring in front of me, too.) Arda's Dark Copper Red looks the closest match to my eyes, at least from the owner photos on their site. (I don't have their swatch ring to compare.) But you should also consider what will look better with your own coloring - something more orange-y or more red? Something a little lighter, or a little darker? Personally I know I would go for the darkest realistic shade because I simply look better with darker hair. Light wigs look too fake on me.
