I think it's L'Oreal that makes a product that removes hair dye from your hair. I've seen it at Walmart and used it a LONG time ago when a dye job went bad. It works pretty well and is inexpensive.

Another time a dye job went bad, my stylist "fixed" it for me and it only cost $30. Maybe call around to salons to see if someone has a special going if you're leery about using the store bought stuff.

Good luck!

In order to go from black to red hair, you must first lightening the hair with bleach (hydrogen peroxide) and then apply the desired color. After you bleach your hair, you can deposit your desired color immediately. This process is difficult to do yourself. You should consider going to the salon.
