Dyed my hair professionally but want a lighter color. How to fix?

This is my 1st time dyeing my hair hence, I am very new to hair dying so bare with me lol. My hair is naturally black (turns really dark brown in sun, not blue) and I got the bottom half layer of hair dyed a warm brown. I thought it would come out a brown but it came out a fairly dark brown. It's not very noticable and I want it to be a bit lighter. I don't want to dye my hair again. What will happen if I wash with regular shampoo (instead of shampoo made for dyed hair)? Or would shampoos for sustaining light brown or blonde hair lighten it? Someone told me that John Frieda's shampoo for brown hair would lighten it. Can you recommend some specific products?



-- I'm not sure what double bleaching looks like so can someone tell me if that is what my hair dresser did? She first put the white-ish dye stuff in my hair and waited for about 45 minutes (but the color didn't show) and then put more in for about 30 minutes. She massaged it in and then rinsed it out.

sounds like she just used plain ol' bleach..



you can buy that yourself and leave it on longer (but i wouldnt recommend it)



nope..diff shampoo isnt going to fade it unless it used to be lighter and you put color on top of it..then it makes the color fade... but it wont help if it was already dark to begin w/



hang out in the sun if that helps you or go to the tanning bed? if you like going...by all means dont get skin cancer because of this answer though.. hehe



that's all i know of, unless you just bleach it some more!

i also have dark hair so dying it a lighter clolour usually doesnt work. i reckon u should ask ur hairdresser to highlight that piece, she should put a lot (depending on u) of thin highlights there then dye it that way u will see the difference. if u worried about ruining ur hair just use a good treatment after dying in. i suggest v05 hot oil it works like a charm



goodluck

The very best thing for you to do, is go back to where you had it done and tell them you are NOT happy! They will redo it for free and your problem will be solved.



There's NO shampoo that I've ever heard of that will make it lighter.



Just go back....Things like this happen all the time, and salons are used to re dos to make their customers happy.



Just DO NOT attempt anything on your own! You're only asking for trouble if you do that.

When hair has been lightened it cant go back to darker with out adding more color. Your natural haircolor has been lifted out and remved. Regular shampoo will Just not protect your chemically processed has as much.

Shampoos do not color or lighten hair per say. You need either A, get it died back to the original color as close as possible, but give it a month or two to recondition or B, get our hair dresser to bleach and die it a different color again after giving it time to restore condition first. The answer to the your bleaching question; yes it was and has to be bleached first going from darker to lighter. It is like creating a clean canvas to paint on.



Condition with Matrix Bio and V05 hot oil treatments



Also, have your hairdresser do a sample strand next time...



Sorry, my mom ran a salon out our home when I was growing up....learned a few things...good luck!

I need help with my hair?

Im a natural chesnut brown and i want to be blonde i have used hair colours and every colour i use turns my hair ginger or copper and i hate it. I have also used colours with extra lightners and it turns my hair white and the only other thing to use is bleech but this makes my hair so dry and bright white. I want to achive a nice honey dark blonde but i cant afford to go to the hair dressers either. When im blonde though my roots always come back black is it worth ruining my hair to get it blonde or just leave it brown how can i do this ? please help xx katie xx



I need help with my hair?

Getting all of your hair honey blonde is going to be a very complicated procedure. A heavily done highlight one shade lighter than the honey blonde that you desire would be the easiest way to get the results you are after. (And maintaining highlights is a little easier than maintaining a full head of color) If your hair is all brown right now, you can pick up a highlight kit, pull quite a bit of hair thru the cap, use the lightening product (probably bleach) and watch it like a hawk, when it gets to a orangey-yellow color, rinse the bleach and lightly shampoo and condition the hair (KEEP THE CAP ON) now towel dry the hair and blow dry until it is almost completely hair, now apply a medium ash blonde color (permanent) to the hair sticking out of the cap. The medium ash blonde will counteract the brassy tone that the bleach left and leave you with a pretty honey shade. If you let the bleach lift your hair all the way to pale yellow it will be harder to get the color to "take" to your hair, by leaving a little pigment in your hair the permanent color gets to do both of its jobs (lifting color and deposting color) it will also keep the bleach from staying on your hair so long that it destroys its intregrity. You should use a deep conditioner daily on multi-processed hair. I use 3 separate conditioners every day just because I live in a sunny climate.

Hair dying question??

I have dark brown hair and its lighter about 10cms down. It sort of looks like re growth but its not, its from having blonde foils. My mum only gets me get it semi died all brown because if its permanent i will have re growth and she doesnt want be dying it all the time. Could I just wait till the semi is all out and dye it my nautral colour (the colour at the top) and then as i get regrowth i wont know until it hits the blonde.. so it wont be dying it all the time... just until the blonde is fully out?



I would get it done at the hair dressers so they can match the colour but is this possible? Im 13 if it helps.



Hair dying question??

im a hairdresser myself.. and i can assure youll be fine, deffinitly go to the salon, and tell them what your looking for.



Hair dying question??

Ive been exactly the same. you will have to go to a hairdressers to get it sorted. if you try it yourself, there is no way that you will be able to match it because you're not qualified to.



so book yourself into a salon %26amp; explain it to them.

Hair Advice?

I have possibly the worst combination of hair. It is dry and a bit damaged at the ends, oily at the scalp and very frizzy and naturally thick and curly. I look after my hair and i need to wash it nearly every day to keep it in reasonable condition. I use Herbal essence and get may hair done at the hair dressers regularly, but i cant just get out of bed, brush my hair and be ready for they day. I spend ages tying it back and straightening my fringe. I need to keep my fringe to frame my face a bit, i dont like what i look like with my hair all pulled back. I like to keep it long, hoping that the wieght of it will make it less frizzy. Is there any products out there i can use to tame my hair for everyday wear without spending hours pulling it back or using my straightener??



Hair Advice?

Use a smoothing cream before you style and that will make it less frizzy. Wash your hair every day! I know people say it's bad because "It strips your hair of natural oils" but if you have already oily hair then it's ok to wash it regularly. I have oily hair and always wash it everyday. When I go to get my hair cut, my stylist always says how healthy and clean my hair feels. Just make sure you use a good conditioner always and keep it away from your roots.

Hair Advice?

I like these for my own waves . They are also not as expensive as some things out there



http://jessicurl.com/Products-p-1.html



As someone with an oily scalp its a struggle but I like the shampoo as its not so heavy Then I follow with this conditioner



http://jessicurl.com/Products-p-1.html



then this to style



http://jessicurl.com/Products-p-1.html



also the conditioners are great from this place



http://www.mixedchicks.net/curlyhairprod...



Once a week I deep condition my ends



Good luck



ps get those dry ends cut so your hair doesn't get split ends all the way up. Healthy hair is beautiful hair



To truely control an oily scalp getting highlights helps besides the face they look real pretty when done right



Hair Advice?

Oh dear, I have terribly frizzy hair, especially when it's HUMID out. I tell you what I do....I use equal parts of conditioner and honey when I wash my hair. I KNOW it sounds stupid and you're thinking "Doesn't the honey make your hair sticky?" But it doesn't. If just your bottoms are frizzy just use the honey/conditioner mix on the ends of your hair. Don't put it on the roots or it will make it more oily. The first time I used honey, I was hooked...I keep a bottle in the shower and use it everytime I wash my hair to straighten it. Hope this helps!

Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

I thought I'd try getting one but now greatly regret it. Im desperate for straight hair and I have layered which makes straightening an even bigger hassle. To get it presentable looking takes five times over with a straightener,no lie, and even with damage protection products its taking its toll. I cant get chemical straightening because Ive been assured by a hair dresser it will make it fall out. Do I have any options?



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

Try styles that pull your hair away from your face... this will make it less noticeable to you and easier to deal with until it relaxes or grows longer. I had gotten a perm once and freaked out because it was so different. I had always had straight hair and it was too much of a change. I did the stupid thing and got it straightened and my hair did indeed fall out... a lot of it! Just be patient.. and don't worry, I am sure it doesn't look as bad as you think! (looking back now at the pictures of me with curly hair, it was actually pretty cute)



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

Sorry the only thing you can do is let it grow about 4 inches (4 to 6 months) and then get it cut to lower the impact of the curls. You can use an anti-friz curl relaxing shampoo and it won't hurt your hair or its roots because it is temporary. Good luck!



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

I feel your pain. I did the same thing when I was younger. I just brushed it, constantly and always wore it up. It eventually, after about a month or so.. started to loosen and the Curls dropped.



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

Sucks about the hair. I know how you feel, but I don't have a perm. I love straight hair. It depends on what kind of hair you have for Japense straightning. If you have thin, brittle, hair- dont use it, use like an iron and an ironing board for someone to help you with.



If you have thick hair- you can probably use it unless otherwise told. Have fun! Hopefully, it will become straight again.



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

Sorry, but the worst thing in the world is waiting for a bad cut or unwanted perm to grow out.



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

The cheapest and easiest way is just to go to the store and get an over the counter perm. follow the directions on timing and instead of putting the curlers in just comb (very gently) straight.



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

I did the same thing, I got a perm a month ago and I hate it, I dont want this puffy frizzy hair. I have been using a flat iron, but even with using a heat protectant spray, its splitting my ends alot too. I think all you can do it let it grow out, and keep flat ironing in the mean time, but only do it once every 3-4 days, shower with a shower cap, thats what I'm doing %26amp; its working out, since I dont really have any other options but let it grow out at this point. Good Luck.



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

Um... ya went wrong with the perm honie, no one got one of those since the 70楹搒, my mom was in 鑼卪, I saw her old clothes ill just say the 70楹搒 were NOT a pretty time.. OK so you can )if you still have the chemicals in) style it straight most perms will style staight if the chemicals ar still in..since your hair will fall you with a straight perm.. i think you should try to strsighten it out.... or buy a CHI they ARE expencive, but tottally worth it!!!!!



GOOD LUCK



!!!



-I楹搈 not strange, just unique



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

I did the same thing once. I used allot of conditioner and I kept having the perm trimmed off. I used Aussie scrunch spray on it until the perm grew out. I wore it up allot also. Good luck



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

If you are not sure, you shouldn't be asking strangers here! Isn't that the advice you rudely just gave to the person asking about studying law??? If you are going to be rude to people here, you can expect it back...see they can answer your questions too! I'd say karma gave you the bad perm for being nasty to people here!



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

A PERM CAN BE TAKEN OUT BY GETTING A BOTTLE OF PERM SOLUTION PUT IT ALL OVER YOUR HAIR THEN KEEP COMBING YOUR HAIR STRAIGHT UNTIL THE PERM IS ALL OUT IT PROBALY WON'T TAKE MORE THAN 10 MIN. THEN RINSE THE PERM SOLUTION OUT, TOWELL DRY YOUR HAIR SOME, THEN IN THE BOX THAT THE PERM SOLUTION WAS IN THERE IS ALSO A NEUTRALIZER--PUT THAT ALL OVER YOUR HAIR , COMB IT THRU AND LEAVE IT ON FOR 5 MIN. THE NEUTRALIZER HELPS THE HAIR GO BACK TO NORMAL. THE PERM SOLUTION WILL NOT HURT YOUR HAIR AS LONG AS IT ISN'T LEFT ON BUT 10 MIN OR LESS, THE NEUTRALIZER HAS TO STAY ON FOR 5 MIN-NO MORE TIME THAN THAT, RINSE OUT THE NEUTRALIZER, SHAMPOO, CONDITION --YOU ARE DONE. THIS DOES NOT WORK ON NATURALLY CURLY HAIR--ONLY PERMED. SOME HAIRSTYLIST THINK YOU HAVE TO USE THE SAME SOLUTION ON PERMED HAIR THAT YOU WOULD USE ON NATURALLY CURLY HAIR--AND YOU DON'T. THE STRAIGHTNER THAT YOU HAVE TO USE ON NATURALLY CURLY HAIR IS TOO STRONG FOR MOST HAIR. GOOD LUCK



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?

well i would cut my hair. get it short (not super short tho) and get heavy duty conditioners, id advise biolage, you can get it at your regualar hairdresers for about 20 dollars a bottle, but it will be worth it. straighten it. flat iron straightner. if u get the revlon kind (sold at walmart for about 30 dollars )its amazing and it works on wet hair!!!! also make sure its ceramic and dosent get hotter than 325 or it could damage ur hair worse! i personally have long hair and love it and would hate to cut it off but damaged dry hair is as pretty as a frizzy perm itself, so suck it up and try a cute short look! it will seem like your perm is growing out faster! i hope this helps!!!! (btw have u asked other hairdressers about the chemical straightning?? she may just not want to do it. get a few more opinions if u want!)



Ive had a perm for about a month and cant stand it.?
