Adore Paprika

I used to have black hair. I used colour b4, it removed it. Was a very dark auburn color. I bleached it. Most of it came out a orange color with ginger bits here and there. I did have some blonde here and there too.

I dyed it medium copper with a permanent hair dye. It helped evened it out. It was just too natural even though it was pretty. There is this dye by Ion called intense red 7rr, it is copper but very vibrant. The woman told me to use it 30 vol. I asked her if she was sure just because I was so light to begin with.. you'd think I would only need to deposit color with 10 vol. She assured me 30 vol would give it a "kick". I took her advice figuring she knew what she was doing.
It sure did give it a "kick" lol.. some colors it came out copper as it was suppose to, with a fire engine red glow, plus my ends were pink because my ends being so light to begin with.
I grabbed whatever I could find in the cupboard. Which was Paul Micthells bright orange. Put in my head and it has helped a lot. It looks like now I have vibrant copper but then all the strands that were pink and red are now bright orange.

In a few months will this happen again with the same dye even if I use it with 10 vol?
I would love to try and stay away from this dye if possible. Does Adore have a color that is close to these pictures?
This is the color I am trying to get. I am not sure what it is called. Something copper but very vibrant. I have heard on here Paprika by Adore is pretty close. For some girls online it looks like it comes out fire engine red? Does it come out fire engine red, then fade to a gorgeous orangy copper?

You were right to question the 30 (!) volume. This is one of the many examples of why not to take advice from the Sally Beauty employees. Most of those employees have no cosmetology training and are just trying to sell products. I am not familiar with all of the Adore colors but you would probably only get a bright red from Paprika if you were dyeing over very light blonde hair.

Thank you!
I am now aiming for napalm orange lol. It's coming in the mail.
I read on here some people with a ginger base still had great results with it. I hope it turns out well! My hair is very ginger, especially the more it fades from all the bleaching it's been through.
