I'd ask here for specific tips on unnaturally bright (but not
horribly so, like with so many synthetic dyes!) reds. I know I'll
have to wait a while anyway because of the dye that's in my hair now.
I'll have to strip it, which will leave me with roots and ends of two
different colors. Can you dye over hair that's been stripped? Does
plain bleach/peroxide leave your hair in a different condition than
synthetic color.

I found a great color here (bottom two):

But alas, those girls have naturally blonde hair. I think I'd have to
lighten my hair to get that color, and lighten the roots each time I
touched it up.

Thanks for the quick reply!
