I want to go red!

Hi Kelly:

You are probably asking for trouble if you try to achieve your desired red color at home. First of all you have to know that "tint will not lighten tint" so the mahogany red that is already in your hair will not come out by applying a lighter shade of tint over it. You will need to have corrective color done. This is usually something that must be done professionally. It can be very damaging and a trained colorist can monitor the damage and color results. This is especially true if your new growth is virgin and not colored at all. To be truthful I would not even try this at home you may do more damage to your hair that need be. Call you local beauty salons and get prices. Some salons or even beauty schools will be reasonably priced.

Good luck Forest
