But I talked my mom into letting me dye my hair black with the kind of
Dye that lasts 4 weeks or whatever and if I like it I can perm dye it
but I still want the red extensions.
Any suggested brands of 28 day hair coloring and what is it called?

MsHoney, I have a 17year old daughter too...fun eh? Her best friend is in cos school (just graduated) and they have both been about every color under the sun in the past 2 years. Its been a real treat...
XposeYourself Id suggest the clip ins for a funky highlight...since Mom dont want you to color hair!
Yes she'll think i'll change my mind when i'm older.
How old are you? My daughter in 17 and I won't let her dye her hair with a permanent color either but she's allowed to use rinses if she chooses too.
Do you think she would mind you dyeing it back to your original color if you change your mind about the color? What did the girls on the hair color forum suggest?

All those Asian type henna coloring will stick on the hair permanently. Some even have a metalic compound that will NEVER lighten up. Those hair colors for men usually have a metalic compound, maybe it sounds more macho?
If you go with the hennas used for body art you will not have the heavy metalic compunds usually found in henna box hair color kits.. The only drawback with using hennas for coloring is the time you have to leave the henna on your hair. Plus you usally have to mix in some indigos and other natural powders to get the color you want or the hair will have a reddish hue to it..

"So my mom went to a salon and asked our stylist about dying hair permanently black. She said it wont be a good idea because its really hard to lift a highlight even from dark brown hair and to get rid of it I would probably have to grow it all out."
I don't understand, my meds haven't kicked in yet. Why would she want it permanently black but then lift the color later? Does she think you'll change your mind or something? Why not a semi or demi color that'll rinse out.
Can't she henna it black? It's gentler Xpose, your mom may not mind. It's all natural.

Like metalgirl said, when hair is porous, it grabs on and doesn't want to let go. I've had the same experience as asinnamon going darker.
The thing that stands out for me here is that her mom said no. I know when I was growing up, when mom said no it meant no and I had to find another way to either present the idea or forget it altogether. I'd hit mom up for a set of fun clip-ins and do the black and red thing with those. She might go for the idea!
Eek! I have a naturally med dark brown hair that is porous. I dyed it a dark #2 which ended up closer to black then dark brown. It was a b*tch to get rid of. I had to color fix it a few times and then recolor with a lighter color then what I wanted to end up with. I think you should ask about coloring over at the hair color section, I think there is a lot of rgeat info over there.
Instead of red, you could always do black low-lights with clip ins, if you weren't hot on red....
If you haven't done much chemically to your hair, you MAY be able to get away with using a 28 wash kind of color, something like Castings think it's called.

I've gone from honey blonde to jet black and it rinsed out after several shampoos. The honey blonde may have been a little darker but the black was gone. Maybe it depends on the brand.
The terms 'semi' and 'demi' permanent are misleading. All it really means is they have no or low ammonia and low peroxide. If the hair is porous, even a semi or demi will be permanent, especially in black.
