My window currently have a red tip, if I change it to blue, would it be lighter for me to slide up or down?

Best,

It would be, but make sure your window sash falls in the weight range for the blue tip: 10 to 29 pounds. It's a big range, so it works for a wide range of windows, but some very light windows would be too small to use a blue tip. Just make sure your window fits in the range.
