Amonia free hair dye

Has anyone ever used the L’Oréal casting crème dye or the clairol natural instincts? My hair right now is a balayage brown to blonde. I’m tired of it plus the blonde is fried and at the moment I don’t have the $$ for a professional salon as my sons bday is next month and Christmas. I’m wanting to either go a Betty day or a chocolate brown. Any idea how this would go with one of the dyes I’ve mentioned? Any personal experiences out there?

Thank you in advance.
