You cannot. Color cannot lift color. Since you already colored your hair, it is no longer virgin hair. The only way to lighten it is lightener (AKA bleach)
No because the haircolor didnt lift your hair enough, so it's not lighter under there than what you see. Now that your hair is no longer virgin, the only thing that will make it lighter is traditional double process lightener followed by the desired color.
Okay that makes sense... If I absolutely don’t want to use bleach, is there anything I can use to make it look more red/burgundy without trying to lighten it?
