just dyed my hair and i hate it! plz help

hi. i just dyed my hair on friday. i bought the hairdye from shoppers and it was L'oreal. i really do not know which colour but on the box it looked like a brown with a purple tint to it. instead my hair ahs turned a dark dark purple, almost black, and in the sun its like a cherry red. i really do not like the colour and i want either to go back to my previous colour, light brown, or either get highlights and streaks. i do not know what products to use or where to buy them, because i have never had this problem. to get the streaks/ hilights about how long would i have to wait until i could get them?...a week or two?..cause i really need my hair to be a normal lighter colour by aug 24th. plz help me.

thanks

If what you used was L'Oreal Féria Chocolate Cherry Deep Burgundy
Brown, I wouldn't do anything for a while. Wait a week or two and you'll
see the dark purple hues have faded and it's a natural, dark auburn. I
dyed my hair that way a year ago from a medium/dark brown and it
looked SO purple but after a week or so the weird hues washed out.
