Your Natural hair will never return.

Answer #2

get a dark brown is the easiest way x

Answer #3

1st you need to get all the red dye out. fastest way I know of is too wash your hair a lot with hott water and use head and shoulders shampoo. I used it to fade my side bangs blonde to dye them blue. so try that for about a week then if its still not all out id say you might have to get the red color lifted by a professional. you could try dyeing over the red with brown but it might not come out the right color you want.

Answer #4

I agree that you could just dye it again but there’s also a product in the dye section called Oops. There might be more to the title than just oops, I don’t remember, but It says Oops in big letters and it lifts color that you previously put in your hair.

Answer #5

Red hair dye is the hardest dye to KEEP on your hair. Don’t worry, after about a week or two of washing with shampoo it’ll go right off. Since you have naturally dark brown hair, this is really easy to change back to. Just buy the dark brown dye closest to your natural color and it will go right over the red.

Answer #6

Trust meee I have put that much red dye in my hair that it does fade a lot and wont fade to a normal colour it goes like an orangy pink and I cant handle having my hair that colour.. I was thinking to bleach it, what will happen if I did that?
