if it's just sun-bleached, you may try rosemary and sage infusions. I don't know how
to do them, but if you google around a bit you will come across recipes. I have the
impression that the key to getting them to work is to repeat, repeat, repeat.

browns *with* henna *without *a red tint, I don't think they exist - henna has this
property that it pops up in sunlight no matter how non-reddish brown your hair looks
indoors. the strangest thing.

another possibility is walnut.

and there are two logona shades that I know of that claim to have 'minimal red' -
brown umber and natural brown. you'd have to strand test to see how 'minimal' the
red is in them.

if you don't like experimenting, this may be a tough road for you to pursue because
as far as I know there is no 'out-there' answer to your question and it will take
experimenting to get the results you want. have you thought about temporary hair
colours? that may be easier.
