my natural hair colour is medium ash brown. I had dyed it 2 shades darker and decided that I prefer mid brown. I used a colour remover and it turned my hair orange... then I dyed it medium ash brown, and it went reddish, after a couple of weeks I used medium ash blonde, and its orange again.... better than after the colour remover, but still not brown.... its very difficult to get brown hair when you dye it yourself.... I decided to stop experimenting and to go to a salon...

you could either dye it all red and then pick streaks of your hair out, wrap it in foil and dye the rest black or what maybe would produce better results as i know from experience that red can show through black, is to pick out streaks wrap in tin foil, dye the rest black then pick the brown streaks and dye them red.

That's not possible. You'll have to lift the colour then dye it brown.
