    Question Can I dye my hair the day after dying it?

    This is probably a really stupid question for most of you all but I'm a total beauty noob. I have been a wash and wear kinda girl my entire life but I recently decided I wanted to go from medium brown to red hair. I dyed my hair last night and I'm not thrilled with it. It's not terrible but you can't really tell that it's red. I used L'Oreal Feria #56 Brilliant Bourdeaux (auburn brown). It's supposed to be a deep red but on me it turn out brown with a little bit of red.

    Could I redye my hair today with a brighter red? I'm thinking a copper red color. Would I need to strip out the red that's already on my hair? Do I need to deep condition or anything?

    Some background on my hair: I wash (and condition) 3-4 times per week, no heat EVER, and this is only the 4th time I've done anything chemical to my hair so my hair is super healthy.

    You can dye your hair again, just make sure you're conditioning. My sister is a high end colorist and she dyes my hair all the time, sometimes the steps she takes require four dyes in a day.

    If you go to Sally's, you can buy developer and the little bottles of dye. The colors are better there.

    Check out this blog, its got good hair advice.

    You can redye, I have done my hair 4 times in 2 days. But my scalp was very stressed afterwards! Buy a deep conditioning mask (the matrix masks do a great job!!!)

    Go to Sallys or any beauty store, where you can buy your own hair color and developer seperately (get a 30 or 40 one) for the color to deposit harder into your hair since its already a dark shade. Leave it on for 40mins and keep checking on it afterwards if needed for longer.
