its called bleach
use a low volume bleach
that should make your hair a reddish blonde anyways
then maybe get some red dye
The only way to lighten hair is to bleach it out. Once you do that, you can use a “pure red” or a “bright red” color to tone it.
Proceed with caution, however, especially if you have long hair. Coloring your hair is damaging, but bleaching is even more so. If you bleach and color your hair repeatedly, the ends will get dry and frizzled, and your once beautiful mane of deep reddish-brown will become a mop of bright red straw.
What you might consider instead is letting the current color wash out naturally with time. Red hair dye is notoriously short-lived, unfortunately. So chances are good that the color you’ve got in there now may lighten with time. (I color my hair with a very dark brownish red hair dye and it always lightens up within about 6 weeks, much to my chagrin.)
Also, next time you’re going to color your hair, test out the color with a semi-permanent or natural hair dye first. If you like it, you can purchase the permanent version of your selected color the next time.
And of course, seeking professional help, especially the first time around, is not a bad idea. If you go to a beauty school and request one of the instructors, you can get a great dye job and also purchase the products necessary to continue coloring your hair at home using the same products in the future. I definitely recommend this whenever you’re tempted to try something drastic like using bleach!
Best of luck!
