Can hair that's been dyed brownish black be dyed red?

I want to use a dark shade of red but I wonder if it will show up where my hair has been coloured, or if it will be too uneven because I have about four or five inches of hair that's never been dyed. My real hair is only a shade lighter than the dyed part .

It will be uneven color... sorry. Red would show up on the other dye as long as you used a red color in the same level ( depth of color) your currently have on your ends. You could do a rinse on your ends ( use a bleach powder and developer mixed with shampoo and water apply to wet hair and leave on for about 10 minutes or until you see color coming out). to get the hair to match up better with your natural color and then do the red. Good luck! You know, you could go to a cosmetology school - cheap!!

well if you want a nice dark red.. maybe you should lighten up your hair first.. make it one even color then dye it whatever red you want... use clairol...however you spell it.. i used that for when i dyed my hair red... it turned out nice and it lasted a while.. but you have to remeber that when you dye your hair such an artificial color as red.. it will come out realy quickly in the shower... it may sound sick but dont wash your hair for a couple of day... jut let the color soak in all the way.. otherwise it will rinse out in a matter of days... good luck!
