At the moment I have bleached blonde whitish hair but I am bored and want to try dark dark brown - is there no way back if I hate it or it doesnt suit me?

there is a way but it means more dying and remember dying your hair excessivly is unhealthy (look at gail porter) id advise to strip your hair professionally first and then go dark if you dont like it you can go back to your bleach without dying your hair too much

If you hate it you will need to leave for a while before doing anything else or your hair will be in such poor condition it will end up breaking off near the roots!!! With such a big change it will take a little while to get used to it anyway. Remember if you go DIY with colour that dry bleached hair may be more porous & absorb the colour more resulting in a deeper colour result. You may therefore want to choose a shade a little lighter than the result you want to be on the safe side. If you really hated it you could always put in a few high/lowlights to give the colour a lift

If you do this you can gradually build the blonde back up via highlights.But you will need to have it done in a salon for the highlights.
You would be better off having the brown done too in a salon.They can put a t-bar of highlites over the brown at the same time then, just to break it up.Have a chat with your hairdresser.
Happy Xmas

You should go to a salon and have this done professionally.
Otherwise, you will end up with ends that soaked up too much color since bleached blonde hair's ends tend to be porous.
Good luck.

Try on a wig to see if you like the colour. You could go back to blonde but the condition will suffer

don't b tempted 2 go 2 dark.

If you dye it dark brown and like it, then great! If you don't like it, then just bleach it back blonde and you'll be back where you are now.

If you want to go brown for just a little while, use a level 1 semi-permanent hair color, just be sure, that is the one you dont have to mix.

Use a toner to see how you like the color before doing anything permanent. The toner, if you just put it on without anything else, will only last a few days.

Use the semi-permanent dyes. They washout after about 2 mths.
