My hair is brown, and when it's in it's natural state it's several different colors of brown.
I dyed my hair an "intense auburn" color - it was nice, but I was tired of dying and re-dying my hair due to how fast it grew out. It would go from this dark, rich reddish-brown color to funky-light red.
So what did I do?
I had my mother go buy me the most basic brown she could find (now, mine turned out to be mahogany, and it has a slight red tint to it, but it also kept changing from red back to brown from looking so odd.) My brown was also a little darker than my natural hair color - that way when it started fading out it looked more natural.
