Well my temporary dye washed mostly out so I dyed it.......and it's not gingery enough. If I am in direct light then it looks like the gingery color on the box of dye that I picked out, but in any other light it's just a dark reddish brown. I know from past experience that permanent red hair dye fades a lot and always ends up becoming super coppery so I'm hoping that it will turn more gingery over time as I wash it.

. I heard a story online of one snapping randomly out of nowhere a while later. It seems to appear pretty though.
) that basically your hair had to be lighter than the hair dye color in order for it to properly work. So I decided to try the baking soda+hydrogen peroxide method instead; I mixed the solution with the proper ratio and because I saw a video on youtube where a girl got major lightening after having it on her hair for 30 minutes I decided to start with 15 minutes. Once I washed it out and my hair dried there was no difference. LOL. So then I decided to try a method where you just saturate your hair with a solution of half hydrogen peroxide/half water. I felt like that was a pretty big dilution especially considering how unresponsive my hair has been to all lightening attempts but I figured I'd try it and if after ten minutes it wasn't lightening I would add more HP. Well after ten minutes there was no difference so I added more, ten more minutes no difference so I added more, ten more minutes and no difference so I added more.....etc. I had to do it like 5 times and had it in my hair for almost 90 minutes and it finally lightened.........one shade. Mind you I have thinnish light brown hair, it's not like I'm working with coarse, jet black hair here. So I sprayed it with the solution again today and it's probably 2 shades lighter now. I guess I will have to keep spraying it till it eventually gets where I want it, which at this rate will take 40 years.
