Hair dye

I’ve been coloring my hair since I was probably 15 years old. It started with sun in spray which is the worst for my hair because I have a reddish tint to my brown hair. Then as the years went on I got lighter & lighter and became blond. About 7 years ago I went back to brown since it’s the easiest to keep up (gosh I’m making myself sound old, ha!). My favorite hair color is brown with highlights but it’s so expensive to keep up. My problem is I like my color to be dark brown w/ the highlights but after a while the dark brown seems to fade so then the ends get brassy. So then I have to dye my entire hair again & get highlights. If I could just do my roots when they came in then I would keep it up but because the color fades after a while I can’t.
So during the winter I’m trying to dye my own hair. I’m not working so I’m trying to save money in certain places. I have a lot of hair (even tho I chopped off a lot a couple months ago) so I need to boxes of color. I used Revlon #50 this time instead of #51 I used last time but I still got a reddish tint. The color is Light Ash Brown but looks pretty dark. I’m going to continue to do my hair for a while trying different colors until I find the one I like. I will get this!! I’m thinking of trying the highlighting too but I’ll do one thing at a time.
