From Dark red hair to light red hair?

Hi people /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

A few months ago a coloured my hair with Majicontrast Red (with 30 vol peroxide) and it turned out like this

Its a lovely shade of deep red but I want a lighter red. Would I have to strip out this colour before i attempted my lighter shade of red?

Also, Protein fillers? Are they worth the money? I have quite thick hair and after dying it for the last 7 years (mainly blacks and reds with bleach thrown in there) its quite hair to keep colour locked in.

Any Advice and answers would be most welcome /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Thanks in advance /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I would consider what you have a light red, it doesn't look dark at all. I think if you venture out to lighter territory you are going to risk it looking pink instead of red.

get like xxlive hair dye but your hair does look very light already but them hairdyes are good

if you lighten it will turn red, let it set for two weeks to see if it lightens overtime on its own.
