Red dye suggestions?

Ok so I tried dyeing my hair red with the reddest looking dye I could find at the store.

My hair turned out being a copper/rusty orange color, which is fine for now but I really want it to be red.
Can anyone suggest a red hair dye I can buy online that would work on someone with...copper colored hair?

Located in the US preferably.

for a deep red in my opinion your chances of getting better then a box dye is slim to none. i recomend garnier and not to bleach your hair before hand. ive never found a semi perm dye that hasnt leaned tword the copper or pink side. the plus to a box dye in that case is that its perm and will lost alot longer then semi perm...obviously haha

I personally get it downtown at 'the rock shop' but I suppose it would depend where and if your city/town sells this product in any of their stores. There are dozens of viable online stores that sell this product, just use google!

i get mine from a local beauty shop. you just have to go in lots and remember which brands of dye each store has.

Hot topic has just started carrying it... I think it's 10 buck a jar (cheaper than the others that are carried) if you are in a mall or can't find a beauty store, or don't want to order off line.

a good dye i use for when i go pink or any other colour is Smart Colour, it lightens then dyes and it works on any hair type and colour. i dunno if you can get it in the US, but you can order it online if you want and it takes about 5 days. you dont have to bleach your hair and it feels really soft and shiny afterwards.

i just looked it up on the american site and it's about $13-00 and comes in all colours
