Anyone tried Loreal Casting Creme gloss in Mahogany??

Hi. My hair is currently copper, not permanent, but was applied professionally. I can't afford 100 odd quid on haircuts anymore so thought I'd try the dye at subject. Can anyone recommend this? Is the finished result like a dark auburn? What I don't want is a plum based or toned colour. Many thanks

Watching with interest as that's the look I'm after too.

Just from looking at the l'oreal website the mahogany looks plummy to me, the chestnut looks more auburn, but it's hard to tell from the small swatch.

A good rule when choosing dye is to go a shade lighter than you think, ie if you want medium brown choose light brown as medium usually turns out to be dark - IYSWIM!

Thanks macherie, Perhaps I should go for amber.
