What color should I dye my hair? (Pic included)?

Question

http://rosenrosin.deviantart.com/art/Inspire-139249526

My hair is shorter now than in the picture (it's cropped to about 2 or 3 inches on the right and tapered to just below my chin on the left, with sideswept bangs), and although it may look a little red it's actually a medium to dark brown with a few chunks of blonde where the bright purple washed out.  I'm looking to dye my whole head, not just the blonde chunks.

I haven't been able to figure out my skin tone, because I look good in warm and cool colors, some of the veins on my wrist are blue and some are green, and my eyes are turquoise with hazel around the pupil.  If I had to guess I'd say my skin tone is pink with gold undertones.

The colors I'm considering are ash black, some red color, burgundy, and light brown.

Any opinions? Please include pics if you can!

If you are doing the colour yourself, do not try to put any colour including the word 'ash' over blonde.
It makes for a nasty, greyish result if not done by somebody who knows what their doing.

I'd say a deep chocolate brown with red undertones.
It's a nice warm colour that I think you could pull off. :)

If I were you, i'd keep a brown shade, but keep it light. I'd go with the most natural look you can get. If you want a wilder look, try a brown undertone with light brown highlights.

Some examples:

This would bring out your face.

This is a bit simpler.

Plain light brown hair.

For a more professional look, go with what I mentioned. :)
