PLEASE! CHOCOLATE BROWN COLOUR!!!!!!

Dear Arianna,For as long as I can remember, I always considered my natural hair color to be a medium brown (and I dyed accordingly). However, upon going to a VERY reputabe haircstylist, she analyzed my root area and said that I am naturally a very dark BLONDE! She said that people really tend to believe that theier hair is MUCH darker than it actually is. Anyway, at that point she used a color restorer and brought me to my desired shade of brown (I now highlight and I love the golden effect). After, I kept up the haircolor at home by using a light golden brown-- never in my wildest imagination had I ever thought that a LIGHT brown would do the trick-- but it did-- with rich, soft color. My stylist also said that people don't realize that the color medium brown IS very dark-- with dark brown appearing black to the untrained eye. I hope that this helps!Sherry> I dye my naturally medium brown hair a colour called> "Sable Cove" by "Hydriance". It is> supposed to be a dark brown but it turns out to be> black on my hair.

I dye my naturally medium brown hair a colour called "Sable Cove" by "Hydriance". It is supposed to be a dark brown but it turns out to be black on my hair. I really want a dark, chocolate brown colour and I want to know if I can gradually change the colour myself by dying it a few lighter shades each time I dye it. Or, do I have to go to the salon, get the colour removed, and get it dyed to the desired shade?? Please help! Arianna
