How to color very dark hair!?

Question

I have jet black hair naturally, and I love to try and add color to my hair. Ive bleached my hair before and that is the only way I can get it another color. Now I've been trying to dye it red. It will color red, but not as bright and then it rinses out very easily even when its permanent! PLEASE HELP!!

Answer 1

bleach it..

Answer 2

Your only option is either bleach or keep doing it with the lightest permanent color there is until you get the desired results. And not a semi-permanent, it will never show.  I have very dark hair too.
