getting my hair back to the red i dyed it once before? SE Cherry Bomb?

I made this long post with pictures and everything and  *ott*
it just all went bye bye
im also sorry if this is in the wrong post
this does have to do with semi permanents

to make a longer story even shorter now
i faded my red hair using clarifying shampoo and head and shoulders and i plan to use special effects cherry bomb over it.
I dyed it before with one n only new hair dyes in red and hot pink and idk why i was not happy with the shade for some reason
i dye my roots using hi color in red and magenta
a few months ago i did the stupid mistake of putting the hi color in all my hair
so its not fading like it used to
i dyed my hair red professionaly over a light brown a year ago and like 5 months ago decided to do my hair myself

this is when i dyed it myself a few months ago i loved this red

this is my hair faded should i fade it out more? should i even bother with a color remover when i just want my hair red and my hair is already red.

should i go dunk my head in my local pool in hopes it fades more?
anyway the question is will cherry bomb from special effects go over this faded red hair nicely?

and lets say in the future i want to go with this hair color will i have to bleach my hair?(yes i know this photo is probably photoshopped its such a nice red though)
