Hi there! I use to go to school for cosmetology.
Red will not show up on black hair. It may leave a tint in the sunlight, but it won't give you that dramatic, red look. If you are wanting that look than I suggest to go buy so bleach, and a 40 volume developer and bleach your hair. Since your hair is so dark, when you bleach it the first time, it'll turn orange. This is why you will need to get a neutrilizer, to kind of take some of that orange away.
I'd suggest to get the bleach done professionally. But once you get the underneath a nice, even color; I'd apply the red.
By the way, red fades very quickly, and it turns to a real nasty orange color. Everytime you wash, you will see some of the red come out. Red isn't a permanate color; its made for fun;
With the bleach, if you chose to do it yourself, you have to watch it. Hair color stops processing within a certain amount of time; just like on the back of a box it says, "leave in for 30 minuts," bleach never stops processing. It can process so long that it can break your hair off.
You'll have to bleach your hair a couple of times to get it the color you want. And some of your hair will fall out, not a lot, just like it would if you was brushing it while it was wet; it also depends on what type of hair you have; thin or thick; If you notice your hair feels rough, go buy some leave in conditioner, and leave it in over night. This will help get back the silkyness, and the texture you want. You will have do it a couple of times a week!
Hope I helped! Need anything else, feel free to send me something to my inbox!

It could be because it there is no bleach/peroxide in it. My friend with black hair tries all the time and it never works.
You either need to get a stronger dye, or lighten your hair. After you've lightened it (it could go a brown), leave the hair for a couple of weeks , dying hair damages it. Then put the red on it - but be aware if it's not permament, or maybe semi your hair could go a ginger colour after it washes out so it's important to choose the right shades.
What I find if I am unsure is go into your local hair dressers and just ask for their advice, then you'll know what to do. And if you have money, get it done at the hairdressers, it's always better.
