HI, IVE GOT A HUGE PROBLEM!!. OK
 
SO MY NATURAL COLOR IS KINDA DARK BROWN, OR BROWN, U KNOW? THE THINKG IS THAT IT IS DARK, ANYWAYS. SOMETIME AGO I DYED IT RED, AND I LOOK VERY WELL IN RED. SO WHATEVER, I STARTED USING THOSE COLOR BOOSTER LOREAL, AND IT WAS FANTASTIC. BUT ONE DAY SINCE IM NICOLE KIDMANS DEVOTED FAN LOL, I WANTED TO DYE MY HAIR BLONDE JST LIKE HER HAIR.
 
(sorry i just realized ive been writting in caps, sorry. too lazy to write it again wont happen again)
 
anyhow.
i dyed my hair, ligter i used a vol 40 lightener and those professional tubes (loreal). im really bored of the color and besides it looks really fake and looks so "wanna be" i hate it, i hate this color. it looks like this http://www.markshields.com/images/markshields.com-celebrity-hair-dye-roots-blonde-fake-2005-brunette-natural-color.jpg - http://www.markshields.com/images/markshields.com-celebrity-hair-dye-roots-blonde-fake-2005-brunette-natural-color.jpg  thats not me i found it on the web, my hair looks a lot like that, except that my hair has no life i mean on this pics it looks good coz it has some darker shades and that mine looks plain.  so know i look like if i had a dog on my head!! or like a very old lady the ones that dye their hair just to make the white hairs less noticeable......Cry

Just choose a red shade that looks close to the color you want, TEST STRAND it to make sure it will come out exactly like you want (just mix a little to use for your test, not the whole thing) and keep trying stuff until you get a test strand that works.  It shouldn't be too hard to get red from yellow, it just might fade a little fast and need to be redone.
