I dyed my hair red a few weeks ago, my natural colour hair is starting to grow back (brown) and it's really dull now. I was wondering which colours would work from red. I doubt blonde would work but I'm unsure? I was considering dark brown, but thats not very colourful. :)
Any thoughts?

I'd just redye it read, really. But if you want a change go and talk to your hairdresser/a hairdresser about what colours would be "safe" to go for after red.

Get it professionally done, you never want to mess around with red. Hope you realise it's going to take months and months for the red to go, it's the hardest colour to get out.

purple would work from red, i've gone from red to purple to red to purple so many times and it has been fine although i get it done professionally

brown would work easy but if you want something colourful purple/dark blue might be best as already mentioned heh

Oh this is a slow response, but I would follow the advice and just wait for the red to get out. As Catchy said, it is the hardest colour to get out (black and black-blue are also difficult to get out in case you consider those) so I would wait.
Purple or Orange/Ginger wouldn't look too bad after red but I would seriously just wait.

Is it like, a proper neon red? or just a tint of red?
cos my hair is slightly red, nothing amazing, but I just keep redoing it red and it seems fine. I have gone to purple once too, and it looks nice :)
I'd just go to the hairdressers

The last one is atm but yeahhhh I guess its fading buttt its taking ages :(
oh that's not a proper red, get a stripper on it (12.99 boots) and then redye over it whatever you want.
literally spent the week stripping my hair, gone from black to lilac haha.

gotta love your top (;
You could easily dye it to brown (not light) or something.
But yeah, do what Beth said and get a stripper c:

I knew someone would pick up on that ;P
As soon as I posted it, I was like 'ah' xD
I did hairdressing at college and have my full NVQ so I think I am qualified to tell you, do not dye it blonde, you would need a load of bleach to get through the red to make the blonde not turn out brassy or orange/yellow, putting a brown over it is the best idea, preferably go for a 'cool' shade rather than a 'warm' shade to prevent it turning out too red, unless that's what you want
Do not even attempt blonde at this time
Brown is the safest option, make sure it is a darker shade than your red and its very unlikely that anything can go wrong. Also, nope you do not need to go to a professional.

Dye over it in red. You could slap a blonde dye on it, but it will most probably go ginger. Putting a dark dye on it will keep the reamining red there still.
