Dye it with an ash based brown, the ash will cancel out the red and give you a nice chocolate brown depending on how dark of brown you choose.

How do i get orange tones out of my hair I dyed it a dark ash colour but it faded and the orange was still there but darker?
Ashe colored hair dyes have a green base. If your hair has orange tones, applying the ash color will not cover the original color. Brassy colors of hair have to be dyed with blue base. One way to correct the issue, without over processing hair, is to add blue food coloring to your hair conditioner. Hair should be deeply conditioned before trying to change color again. When hair is ready to be colored again, use a blue based darker hair dye to acheive the results you are looking for.

If you are using a neutral or ash color the base for those hair colors is green. When coloring your hair you should leave it up to professionals. Its not as easy as it seems. It's all chemistry.
I have dark brown hair and want natural highlights. What are some ways to get Aubourn or light brown natural highlights in my hair without using the sun or henna?
Hair dye. They make home highlighting kits that are, for the most part, reliable. You can buy them at most drug stores or supermarkets. Since you have dark hair, you will get the best results by using a demi-permanent or permanent dye, as opposed to a semi-permanent dye that will not be able to lift your dark color as well. Most colors will come in a warm, neutral, or ash tone. Neutral and ash tones are less likely to turn your hair orange.
Can you use a brown hair dye to get rid of orange brassy hair?
yes, but use anything with the word "cool" or "ash" - ashy browns reduce gold or orange tones.
Can you dye your hair from orange to brown using a semi permanent colorant?
yeha (say the girl sitting infrot of me) Yes you can. However make sure the semi permanent has a green/ash base such as a ash brown or ash blonde, this will then cancel the red and neutralize the orange and tone the color.
What is the difference between light brown and light ash brown?
An ash color (as in your light ash brown) will neutralize red or brassy tones in your hair. Be careful when coloring blonde hair with an ash tone as it may turn green. As with just light brown it is a neutral color with neither ash nor golden tones.
Does light ash brown or medium ash brown cover orange hair better?
If you are born with naturally orange hair and are not happy with it, ash brown colours should give a good result. Medium ash will give you a deeper brown colour. Orange coloured hair is more commonly the result of bleaching dark hair lighter. My own hair is naturally very dark brown and can go from rusty orange to pale yellow as a result of bleaching. Bleaching can also damage hair and any subsequent colour can really grip; the end result is a darker colour than you originally wanted. After talking to a colour specialist, I have been using Ash blond at home for about the last 12 months. I get a constantly even colour, no red/brassy tones; and glossy shine every time. This is because I know from years of experience how my hair will react, how to follow the instructions accurately, and use very good hair maintenance products. If you are not sure, and your hair is orange as a result of bleaching ......go to a professional hairstylist for the best advice and treatment. Reply to above answer- Well, my hair color is naturally orange. Possibly this person's is too. I think that regardless if you bleached your hair to an orange or were born with it, your answer seems rude. I go to a salon to have my hair colored over in a brown color, it did not take that long to do or seem very difficult. I made an account here just to say that.

What does ash tones do to hair colors?
Ash tones means that the color is cool. For example, Kate Hudson' and Lauren Conrad's hair is golden-blonde which is warmer, more gold and less ashy than Nicole Richy's. While Kate Winslet's hair is warmer than all of the above because it has redder tones in it. Often toners are used to make hair colors more ashy and thus cooler and less brassy or warm.
What colour to put over the medium orange to get medium golden brown and not a redish brown?
With the target color being medium golden brown and the starting point is a medium orange, I would go with a medium ash color + 20 volume developer. If you used a medium gold or a neutral, these colors would add too much brass to that already brassy orange. After using an ash color, the hair may seem a little dark at first. Once it's washed a few times, it should be at about the target color.
