red hair dye fail

last night i decided i wanted red hair again (it was dark blue before) so i color oopsed it and it came out like a lavenderish gray so i put in the red dye and it comes out like purpleish pinkish red. at this point im pissed so i decide to sleep it off and i just washed out the second round of dye and its like a deep red with purple undertones and i dunno how i feel about it. I guess its my fault for buying 5 dollar box dye but whatever. i dunno if i wanna keep it like this or get a new red dye :P
