What should I do with my hair..?

Normally, I would decide something like this on my own, and I will. But I need ideas.. Because I am so lost right now. My natural hair color is brown, but my hair is red, because I dyed it. (Like a natural red..) I absolutely love my red, my it's so annoying having brown roots coming back and having to redye. I have never fried my hair, and I'm really scared that I might fry it.. Does anyone have any ideas? I wanna dye it, maybe for the last time, before school starts. But do I have to go back to my boring brown color..?
