blonde roots and red ends..How do i even it out?

ok my natural hair color is brown i have colored it an R-1 loreal color which is Extreme Copper Auburn. Now i had roots that has grown in so now i want kind of Beyonce or J-Lo's color.......so i was told to use a 8.1 Medium ash Blonde with an 30 developing cream. shw said apply shampoo to roots then color ..then applu to rest of hair...I did just that now i have blonde roots with the same end color--red!  WTF?

listen, did they tell you tint won't lift tint?  not that far anyway....you could either use a color remover just on the red and then tone or whatever...when i went to a pro to fix a problem i paid 50.00 for something i could have done at home...they put bleach on it....in text books it says to use color remover on colored hair and bleach on virgin.  i know you are freaked out but really nothing is unfixable unless you just keep going....do no more than use a color remover.....sucide eve wrote up a page just about that very thing and tells what kind she used and is a wealth of info for the hair-dis-tressed.  if color remover does not do the trick they have good bleaches out and i always put conditioner in my bleach mixture.  good luck and let us know the out come.
