Hi friends!

Well, it's that time again and I'm thinking of dying my hair.

My goal is for my hair color to look like this rich, dark, plum color: http://longhairstyleshowto.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Hair-color.jpg

But alas! I have a problem... my hair is currently kind of ombre.. Since this picture I've toned it twice and its much less orange now and more ash colored. http://d.gr-assets.com/photos/1360258099p8/687602.jpg

I'd ideally like to do this myself since I almost always dye my hair myself because I have extremely thick, long hair and having a professional is so expensive!

But I do know it's better.. So if I can find a good way to do it myself, I'll definitely try!

I'd like to avoid bleaching my hair anymore to get this dark plum color.. I've had dark red before without any bleach and it turned out great! And this was dyed on my natural hair color: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/475426_10151328522450442_1571815040_o.jpg

That being said..

Should I just find a dark brown to match my natural hair color and dye it brown, then plum? Or... maybe two different shades?

We have a Sally's here where I shop so I can pick up the color and developer there!

Anyone have any suggestions except for getting my poor, broke butt off the internet and hauling it to a salon? Ha!

Thanks guys!

 
Absolutely use a brown but make sure you DONOT use Ash. I dye my own hair and went from bleach blonde to burgundyin two applications and I love it! The Ash will add gold and you do not want gold. Good luck!
