Re-dyeing hair?

I dyed my hair blue/black about 2 and a half months ago. If I use the L'Oreal HiColor red will it take on my hair?

Save some hairs from your hairbrush and do a strand test on that hair. If you don't like it, you will have avoided a lot of aggravation. If it looks good, then go ahead.

Before you decided to dye your hair red I would suggest reading this article from Teen Vogue. This gives all the ins and outs of dying your hair red. It will also answer your questions about why red hair fades so quickly. Here is the article:

Just out of curiosity - what is your natural hair color? Is the blue/black the first dye in your hair or have you been experimenting to try and find a color you like? Red is a special color and does not always look nice on everyone as skin tone has a lot to do with how a dyed hair color looks. Really black hair is basically the same so why do you not like the black/blue color on your hair?

I would like to suggest something for you to try before you redye your hair. Make a trip to one of the department stores that has a hair salon and wig shop and try on some of their red wigs to see how you like the color on yourself. Or go to a wig shop in the mall and check out their red wigs just to make sure you like red on yourself.

Or maybe try something entirely different - dye your hair with Kool-Aid as this is very popular now - it is not permanent but will give a good idea of what red looks like on you.

Remember - most sites will say if hair is black (dark color) that you should remove the color first. There are lots of ways to do this I believe this link shows a safe way to do this without using a bleaching compound/mixture.

If you would like to check out the Kool-Aid idea here is link to read.

If the first dye was permanent, you will have trouble getting it red without lifting it first.
