Dark red is one of the hardest colors to lighten. You do have to use something to take the color out like a bleach. To keep from stressing your hair, have you thought about foiling your hair to add highlights first to see if you would like to be a lighter color of red. Any hair colorist can do this easily and it might get you to a color you really could like.
