          | i dyed my hair last night with l`oreal feria [permanent.. i think that colour is auburn blonde].. i was attempting to go for a vibrant red, but instead, the colour`s turned out horrible.  it looks like a faded redish-brown.. very ugly. 
 i was wondering if i can dye over it with another colour?  or will that just create a bigger disaster?
 
 thanks a lot for the help :)

          | In what condition is your hair? If it`s dry you risk damage with any chemical process. I foolishly colored my hair about 8 times over a 6-7 month period. It didn`t get like straw until the very last time I did it. Afterwards my hair immediately felt crisy. I would suggest looking at color-enhancing shampoos and conditioners and/or semi-perm colors. Just please be careful not to wreck your hair !
