Hair dye question?

[JisthenewK]

I'm a natural blond, but I hate my hair colour. It's like a dark golden blond shade. I wanted it light brown, so I bought some light brown hair dye and had my friend dye it for me today. It came out slightly darker, but still blond. What other brands could I use to dye my hair light brown. This time I used Clairol. Also, how long can I wait in order to dye it again?
