I have blonde hair now (dyed) but am considering going darker?

Question

My original color is dark red, and now I have very blonde hair. I want to go darker...is this safe?

Answer 1

well its not safe if you do it at home with store bought color, when your hair is blond and you want to go darker you need to put a filler in your darker color. when you mix yellow(blond) with brown you get green/grey, so you need to put in red to cut the green so you end up with brown, i would go to a professional, and not all colors fade, sure if you use store bought color, its made cheap so you re-buy more often so they make more money, go to a salon pay a little more, so you get more out of your color.

Answer 2

It really depends how long ago you died your hair. I wouldn't want to cause to much damage. If you want to put in a color i would try a dye/mousse. They are temp. but often last for a month. It's a great way to punch up your color between dye jobs or.. fix mess ups. I have also used a tooth brush to do streaks with this type of dye. It's way cheaper then buying a streaking kit.

Cheers.

Answer 3

whether you used tint or bleach for the blond, the dark color will fade and you will have to re-apply the dark color to keep it dark until your natural color grows out. Use non peroxide semi permanent color, it will last just as long as permanent and re-applying semi permanent is not as harsh on the ends.

i have had alomost ever color in the rainbow lol everyones hair reacts differen't but since your hair is orginaly red you will always have a red pigment in your hair it really depends on what color of dark you want to go.

I'd say a dark red would be the best!
Good Luck

Answer 5

try it with a temp first
and if it works out
go ahead....
but if you really want to make sure
ask ur hairstylist
but to me it seems fine
as long as you have had it dyed a while ago
then the ammonia will not be as strong in the hair
good luck

Answer 6

nicely for my section i imagine it seems effective. i do not see whats incorrect with it, a hair colour ought to not make you seem trashy, the way you act will attempt this. and in case you do not act like it then there is not any issue to date as i'm worried. i imagine it seems rather effective easily. =)

Answer 8

yes! you should go for it. people think blondes are stupid anyway, so i don't know why you went blonde. No offense to all blondes
