Hope you don't mind.
Roux used to make -- and I think still does -- "color rinses" that might help. (Take it from someone whose copper-penny hair started going that gadawful steel-grey-with-white at 18, 'K?) I've changed my haircolor more often than I've changed -- never mind... Just trust me on this one -- I have some experience with haircolor products, 'K?
Anyway, what can happen with hair color -- especially at-home brands -- is that they open the hair shaft so much that the color molecules kinda fall out, if that makes sense. (Red is probably the worst for this, of course, being the largest molecule in the visible spectrum -- guess how I know that?) Anyway, the Roux rinse can coat the hair shafts, but can't penetrate, so they are sometimes helpful to use temporarily while the color stabilizes a bit. (And I know they make -- or at least did -- a huge range of blondes...)
I'm very sorry your hair hurts, Dinah. :-(
