So I dyed my hair like 2 months ago and I was going for dark brown but it came out black. So I waited awhile and now it's brown but I'm wanting to go back to how it was before (somewhat strawberry blonde, red). So I'm wondering how or what type of dye I should use to make it go red and not come out some weird mixed color. HELP PLEASE!

I was born with blonde hair, had evry color in the sun... black WAS the worse to get out. Now my hair is a nce light brown w/red undertones. I would go get it done pro. Mixing the wrong color could make you go funky oranges or green even. Color does not take out color so going light could be a process. I would go to the salon and highlight the colors you want in your hair. Have them write it down on a card so when you go back they know the formula to use. It took about 6mnths to get my hair done and now I only highlight and lowlight.
