Want to go a different shade of red

My hair is currently faded bright red, and I was thinking of switching to this for a while -



What do you think? What colour should I use, keeping in mind I have some red in my hair? Should I fade it a little more first? I want to get a pretty intense colour, like almost bright orange but not quite, a slightly more realistic colour. What should I plop on my hair to get something like that? Blonde dye maybe? That might work, if it's a yellow tone, the "Missing" bit of my red that's faded will be replaced by that and make a red-orange.

I've seen people with hair colour like that flat colour though. Highlights *would* be a nice idea, I might try them.

I'm hoping I can bleach my hair to blonde some day though. When it gets a bit longer and I can afford to cut it short again.

Do you think dying my hair blonde would work? Or just bleaching it? Last time I bleached red out it to try and get a similiar colour it came out a dull orange that didn't suit me; I only suit rich colours.
