Brown hair dye turned my hair coppery red?

I used a hair dye over the weekend and the brown turned into this coppery red that doesn't look good on me. I know red is impossible to remove. Do rinses like Fanci Full work to tone down the red? Any other suggestions to tone down the red? Thank you, Kristen

I'd recommend that you don't try to get rid of the red, as much as cover over it. Use an "ash" tone brown...Ash tones lean toward green (don't let that turn you off, it's just an undertone), which is red's opposite.

Try using a paste made of henna and curd.

Hair color will ALWAYS turn dark hair red. Why? Because the pigment in dark hair is red. Red is the underlying color for all brunnettes so as soon as you start to pull color, it will bring the red out. What you can do and GOOD colorists can do to avoid this is they use Ash or Natural colors that add an ash tone to your hair but because it naturally pulls red, the ash doesn't really show up, they cancel each other out. When you buy hair color over the counter, unless you understand the color scheme of hair, it's very hard to get it right. What you can do is go to a beauty supply and get a toner that has an ashy tone or a natural tone to it, NOT gold or golden. That's only going to make it worse. But it won't last forever. And remember, next time, use a neutral/natural or ash tone. Whenever you "pull" color-meaning you're using a 10, 20, 30 or 40 volume developer for "lift" it's going to bring out the red. Color either LIFTS or DEPOSITS. meaning it lightens or darkens. If it lightens and you have dark hair-it's gonna go red, every time-unless you correct the color before you apply. :)

You could go a hair salon and get it fixed.
