Correcting red hair dye.?

Hi,

I dyed my hair "dark reddish brown" with Garnier Nutrisse boxed dye over my dark brown semi-permenant colored hair. My real hair is dark brown but I wanted to "intensefy" it. Anyway, my roots came out red and the rest of my hair stayed brown with red tones. Today, I went out and purchased Ion Brilliance dye in "medium ash brown" and "darkest brown". I bought the medium ash brown thinking I would correct the red but I think I made a mistake in mixing it with a 20 developer instead of 10 to just deposit. Now my roots are even redder and the rest of my hair is a dark dark brown with TONS of red tones, which I hate. I really want to try and atleast fix my roots, take out the red without having to go to my hair stylist. Do you guys think it'd be a good idea to try and dye a dark ASH brown over it to correct the red? I was thinking of just doing the same darkest brown dye but I think it would just stick with the red tones since most brown dyes do that.

Help? :(

try bleaching your hair and then dying it after.

The best thing to do is stop dying it.. lol. Anyways, it will definitely fade as you wash it more, because red doesn't have "staying" power.. But if you do wish to dye, I would NOT use "ash" anything... Use a semi-permanent dye.. in a medium brown perhaps.

get a *deposit only* hair color and just do your roots.

green is the opposite of red on the color cycle so it cancels out the green....you need a hair color with no peroxide so you don't risk lifting your hair at all in a an ash shade..you should try to do the roots only..this would bring them to a darker color that would look more natural...if you go to a salon they are going to do the same thing...except that will probally dye your entire head dark brown....their is a product called loving care....its no peroxide no ammonia..it washes out you could try this without risking more damage...good luck i know the feeling i have had all kinds of color disasters even the one you have as well...i actually have the same color on my hair right now as you do

hon,be careful for using too much dye in your hair can cause drying %26amp; breakage. %26amp; it might turn an awful color..i suggest using somethng semi-permanent, that has no peroxide,no bleach! for sure stay away from them.

If you have a Sally's beauty supply in your area,these ladies can be very helpful.I've been using a "lights %26amp; brights" that's tinted w/brown,it's safe %26amp; stays on pretty good.it's put out by Ardele..they may also have other products,even if they do not have this one.or go to Sally's beauty supply on line..

also, try using the temporary rinses,for now,just to be safe ,to give your hair a break..You might want to put a deep heat conditioner on now too!.Did you know carrot juice is GOOD for your hair? check out the ingrediant in Paul Mitchell's detangler//juice a carrot or 2 or buy a can %26amp; mix it with your shampoo,leave it on 3 min..rinse ,then you can wash it out..Your hair %26amp; scalp will thank you for it!

Be careful / takes a long time to let hair grow back out, if it's really damaged.
