Answer 1

give your hair a little bit of a break! wait AT LEAST a month before dying it again

Answer 2

Don't dye again for at least two weeks. I tried dying my with copper highlights and almost had my hair fall out by dying it again 5 days later. Look on the box of dye for a helpline they have expert advice about their product. Also, try washing it one more time it might lighten up after a few washings. I risk take with my hair too but don't like my hair going down the drain. Find a cute hat if you really hate it.

Answer 3

Every time you put haircolor on top of another haircolor, you will get a darker color. Unless you use a product like Redkin Shades EQ. This product lifts while it deposits color at the same time. But this is only a professional product, so I would recommend getting what you want professionally.

If anything, I would say a quick way to get a lighter shade would to be to get a medium to heavy highlight using a fine weave (meaning, highlight very small strands but lots of them all over the head.) That way, you have a two dimensional color. Also, I wouldn't leave the bleach on for very long. Be careful to watch the color, as you wouldn't want to lift your color too high or go too blonde.

Good luck!

Answer 4

First what product lines did you use ?
This is very important.
Permanent or Semi ?
If you used Feria it is hard on the hair and you shouldnt dye it for a while.
Personally I have dyed my hair dark brown and hated it. (It looked unnatural)
The way I got it back to normal was to use a dark blonde color.
Then wait a couple of days and use a medium golden blond highlisting kit.
Best of luck.

Answer 5

Boy this is gonna be a mission...
1) as you have only just coloured it that is good
2)as you can't lighten colour with colour you're gonna have to shampoo bleach it.
3)buy some bleach from the chemist or wherever you want. mix equal part shampoo, equal parts powder lightner, equal parts peroxide. apply to slightly damp hair.
4)your hair should start lightning nice and slowly. wants its to a redish colour or light enough wash it out but don't coniditon it.
5)apply your desired colour. whether it be light brown or what ever. if your hair lightened up to quite a orange colour use an ash light brown or something. then just do the hilites on top of the colour after you have washed it out. Good luck

Answer 6

You will need to remove the colour first. A colour alone won't life out the artificial colour. It will need to be pre bleached to a level you want to be and then a colour deposited over that. It is quite a process to do yourself at home.
