Things You'll Need:
- Hair color remover
- Hair dye
-
Step 1
Determine if you want to color over the red hair dye with a lighter or darker hair dye. It's a shorter process if you decide to go darker.
-
Step 2
Prepare your hair by first washing it to remove any chlorine, hairsprays or minerals. A good shampoo will do the trick.
-
Step 3
To dye your hair darker, simply apply the hair dye directly on top of the red color by following the directions on the hair dye package.
-
Step 4
Use a hair color remover kit if you decide to change your color to a lighter or brighter shade. These kits remove permanent hair dye.
-
Step 5
Follow the directions on the hair color remover kit. When you are finished, you will be left with a color close to your natural color so you can dye lighter than red. If you want your natural color, you will have to wait until your hair grows out.
