So I went to get my hair colored today, and wanted a violet red color. Well, we went through the entire process and my hair looks EXACTLY the same in normal lighting, and only has a very slight tint in direct light. Needless to say, I am quite disappointed, but the stylist was very nice and she didn't charge me because she doesn't know what went wrong.

Anyway, because this color didn't work, we're going to do a different color next time, and she's going to lift some color from my hair so there will be a change for sure.

So...what color do you think would look good on me?

Here's a pic:



My undertones are actually a lot more yellow than this shows...this pic is from the summer when I tended to be redder from the heat.

Thanks!
