I got the lighter red shade, but it's gone a dark red! I don't
understand. There is absolutely no trace of the red/pink left which is
strange.
I'm a little upset. While the colour itself is beautiful and it makes
me look very sweet, I prefer to keep lighter colours and I can't really
bleach this stuff out. I was hoping to slowly work my way from bright
red to strawberry blonde.
I'm guessing this will fade to a much lighter colour, but then it will
be dull too which is exactly what I don't want; I wanted a vibrant
orangey red like the box suggested.
I got this for cheaper than normal... 6 Euros... at the same time I
might decide to keep it this way for a while as it is a very nice
colour, just a bit too "natural" for me. Since my hair is a little damaged I prefer to keep colours that reflect that I guess...

I'm glad it came out all one shade and looks nice, I was concerned
about that in your other post when you said some of it was banana
blonde and some was pink. This color, like most reds, will likely
fade fairly quickly, so you may as well enjoy it while you have it
since you say it looks nice and you plan on being lighter after
this. Remember later that color won't lift color, so if it
doesn't fade to a much lighter shade, you will have to be careful when
you try to go lighter red to not put a dye on it that will just come
out darker. If it doesn't fade to much lighter (like a really
pale pink color), you will probably have to either use a dye remover
like colorfix or bleach to a very light orange first (Colorfix being a
much safer choice for hair than bleach...it has peroxide, but not so
much as to be too damaging).
