Can I get my hair to look like this with a one-step coloring?

I have medium brown hair with some natural red tones. My hair has been recently colored; it is dark brown naturally, but it's gotten lighter from the sun, and also, I used a dark blonde color on it which only lightened it a little. I want my hair to look like this: http://hair.lovetoknow.com/Image:Jennife... Will I need to get my hair colored in two steps, or do I just need to get highlights? I think something will need to be done to tone down the red. I plan on talking to my stylist when I get it trimmed in a few days, but I want a good idea of what I'm getting into first. Also, how long do I have to wait from my last coloring before I color again? Thanks.

This question cant be answered perfectly with out a consultation with your stylist. BUT i can tell you whats going on with Jennifer's hair. It looks as tho its a highlighting (so a lighter color and darker color). This is often done as on process using foils, some stylist choose to break it up in to two processes. (just a preference thing) It looks like there was high-lift color used here rather then bleach. Its a good option to ask your stylist about, but its not for every client. Depends on what you walk in with. About the length of time... If you are unhappy with your color you can change it any time. If its just for a change I would wait about 6 weeks. There are many different methods that can be used to "take the red out" but with out an official consultation its really hard to say. Hope you get what your looking for!

if your current base color is not what you want it to be, and you don't already have highlights of the color you want it to be, then yeah it'll be a two-step process. Sometimes hairdresers do it all in what seems like one step, that is, it's all washed out at the same time. But they'll use one dye on most of the hair and do foils with another dye for the highlights. Just depends what look you're going for. Either way getting hair colored at the salon is pretty expensive. Good luck.
