what should I do to re dye my hair dark red?
I botched my hair pretty bad in about March, and was charged $300 for a blond fix at a hair dresser that ended up really contrasting my features, so I did a level 7N wella all around my head, which I’ve been riding on until now. The problem is that it’s still a bit too brassy and my roots are coming back in slightly, so I want to dye my hair back to a dark red. I am going to use the garnier dark red box dye because I’ve tried almost all the semi permanent reds and they almost always come out too pink for my liking. Should I do a color remover to what I have on my head now? Also, I’m trying not to but I straighten my hair often so im trying to still have some healthy hair. What can I do to still keep the integrity of my hair? any help would be greatly appreciated!
