want my natural hair colour back

St

hi everyone am doing a post because am bit confused about hair stripping. i dyed my hair when i was 11 /12 year old. never stopped dying my hair but am getting sick of dying it and want my natural ginger/ blonde hair back. i have let it try to grow out for months and am sick of walking about or try do my modelling with ginger/blonde scalp and medium brown long bits. so anyway i got hair colour remover. did my hair. my hair did went ginger but dont think it my natural hair. i been told to get a hair dye. i dont want to dye my hair and then been told with in few weeks my hair will get darker and my natural hair will come through. am kind of bit confused. was it waste of time?
