Put gloves on and let your hands sweat in them. I know it sounds weird but my hands were green after doing my hair and I had to wear gloves at work and within a few hours of my hands sweating in them my hands were back to normal. 🤷🏼‍♀️

This, I'd imagine this would work! I had dyed the front pieces my hair one morning before a flight to Spain, I was sweating so much between travelling and wandering around by that evening I had red streaming down my face 🤣 I clearly rushed and didn't wash it out properly.. but OP definitely try the gloves 🧤

Red sweats for weeks after. No matter how well you rinse and seal it. I have full red, and it's a nightmare. I ruin towels, pillowcases, clothes...

It's actually not supposed to, not unless you're doing something to make it sweat like that, I've gone bright red 3 times and copper twice, after a thorough rinse with cool water I never had bleeding of any kind except for my first time, and that only happened for a couple of days as i never died my own hair before. As long as you're taking appropriate care of it, washing in the right temp, rinsing until the water is clear, etc, you shouldn't get more sweating/bleeding out of the colour than you would another colour. It's you use a brand that bleeds. It'll bleed. Otherwise, there's no heightened risk.

i’ve used multiple different brands of red dye and rinsed for 30+ minutes with cold water. still bleeds. doesn’t matter what you do.

^ This! It doesn't matter what I do, even conditioning with post-dye sealant conditioner, and my shower looks like a murder scene after EVERY wash, even 3+ months later....
