Ok ladies I need your help!

I just found out that I'm pregnant and I need to decide what to do with my hair. I have been scarlet red for about as long as I can remember and I know they say it's safe enough to continue dying hair during pregnancy but it's not like I will have to time or money to do so anyway :)

So, I want to go back to my natural colour. Before I got married I accidentally dyed my hair too dark and I went to a salon and they did what they called a deep cleanse, it took me back to my natural colour before they re coloured it. Only problem is, now nobody knows what I'm talking about and one hairdresser asked if it involved bleach. I'm sure it didn't but if anyone knows what I'm talking about could you please help?

If that isn't an option, would it be possible to put a light brown colour through my hair so that when it grows out it's not as noticeable?

I think they used bleach to strip out your color. Red usually doesn't come off easily. Please check with your doctor before using any color since you you are pregnant. usually ammonia free colors are safe

I'm guessing the deep cleanse is what hairdressers call a "shampoo cocktail". If it's this, its equal parts shampoo and bleach. It will usually remove most colours in hair, but not all.

With that said, if you've been colouring scarlett red for a long time, most likely that will not work. What is your natural colour?
