I just did this! I would recommend going to a professional salon. They'll strip it, and then dye it the color you want. Bleaching doesn't always get red out.

If you want to go from dark red back to blonde, you will need to bleach your hair to remove the underlying pigments and then apply a toner to remove the brassy tones. Some people refer to hair bleaching as stripping because it strips and lightens the hair. This type of process should be done only by professionals.

Thanks, rockerchick. Everyone here says that I know my stuff when it comes to beauty and skin care. Hanna, if you want to successfully go from dark reddish brown to blonde without the brassy tones, you will need to bleach your hair to the level of lightness you want and then deposit a toner to achieve your desired color. To prevent a hair disaster, have a professional do the coloring processes.
