Hair dye: Nasty smell?

Hey guys, so I dyed my hair back in December. I've had it dyed plenty of times before, every time by a hairdresser and there's been no problems.

So the other day I washed my hair, same shower I always use with the shampoo I've been using for a good few weeks as well, and my hair smelled quite bad after. It smelled like dye and when I dried my hair the colour had changed from a dark brown to a more red brown.

Now each time I wash my hair it still has the smell, though thankfully the colour is ok. Does anyone know why this would happen? Or what I can do to stop it? I've tried using another shower and a different shampoo but the result is the same.

    try using the shampoos that say on the bottle 'safe for color treated hair'

    your hair may smell bad from the hair dye itself, but when i used hair dye REMOVER i almost choked myself out on the fumes!!
