I naturally have red hair and I've been dying it dark brown and even black at one point, for about 2 years.
I bought blonde hair extensions and used 5A Satin Hair color to dye them. I already use that to on my natural hair to tone down the copper. I want to achieve a Medium/Dark Rich Brown that will match both hair (the extensions and my natural)
I've had some crazy things happen and go wrong with dying my hair and I don't want to go through it again. Please Help!! :]
If anyone knows what combination and or color to do, I'd appreciate it a lot! Thank you!!

Personally I would get it done professionally. Dying it yourself is horrible for you hair. Buying hair dye from a store doesn't actually dye your hair properly. It doesn't seep into the hair, but it creates a coating on the hair which then makes it almost impossible to get the proper colour that you want from it. Go to a professional, you won't be able to get the exact colour you want yet, but they will have to gradually make your hair the desired colour.

I have red hair. At one point I was going to take my red out for a golden brown. And my hair dresser told me she has to basically strip the red out because red is hard to take out. So I personally think you should get a pro to do it because that can seriously be tricky to do yourself. You want your hair to be somewhat healthy you know. Keep that on mind.
