Okay, so have dark hair, and I've used the fuschia L'oreal Color Rays dye before, and it showed up really brightly and looked nice and everything. So, tonight, I tried the same brand of dye, but in red rather than fuschia, and I did a test strand - the result is that it looks like I just bleached my hair - there's not really any color at all on it. Now, before I go and do all of my hair and end up looking like I highlighted it (meaning the faux-natural, preppy highlights that you see on everyone - I want BRIGHT RED or nothing at all), do you think that the reason the test strand didn't work could be because I didn't get the right proportions when I mixed the dye, and that the test strand was just kind of flukey? I'd do another to double check, but I don't really have the time at the moment... Any input is appreciated, thanks. Also, is there any way to get this particular brand to show up brighter and last longer? It's got peroxide in it. Also, it says not to apply heat... why is that?
