Answer 1

make sure you buy a dye with red in it because if you dye it straight brown the chances are your hair will go green looking so be very careful

Answer 2

You are better off with a tint for your hair. It will give the same effect as a dye. The problem is if you have bleached your hair blonde you need to go red then brown if using a dye as your hair could go green. Not a good look I promise. Schwarzkopf poly colour tint should work that's what I use. I go from all blonde to blonde with brown streaks added and never have a problem. The are under £3 in most places but don't come with conditioner so you will need to deep condition your hair after.

Dear dear. You will need to first re pigment the hair with a red. Then you can apply a light brown or dark blonde. Best to go to salon for this as you will first need to use a specialist shampoo to stop the bleach from coming through. Some bleach/lightners carry on working after they have been washed off. If you just put a straight colour on without re pigment it will go green

Answer 4

You need to seek proffesional advice on this one. When you bleach your hair you oxidise all the pigment out - imagine an empty smarties tube. You need to basically put a bottom on the smarties tube to stop the sweets falling out. This applies with colour! You need to add pigment back in so you're hair doesn't go khaki. If you apply a packet dye you risk not only khaki or orange hair, but also the risk of it looking two tone on the roots. Sorry but this is one best left to the proffesionals. Good Luck! :)

Answer 5

Roleal. It conditions your hair too, when you dye. Don't forget to use colour care shampoo, or it will wash out gradually. But it's not good for your hair to be bleached and dyed in short period, so be careful.

Answer 6

You should really go to the hair dressers. You don't want to end up going back to school with a bold head. You should not mess with your hair you are to young if your still at school plenty of time for that when you get older and start going Gray

Answer 7

I would recommend going to a salon to let a professional deal with it. Most often when tinting hair back to a natural color after bleaching the hair needs to be "filled". You need to add the base color back to the prelightned hair to achieve a natural color. If not you may end up with a greenish or redish cast to your hair. Also, if tinting back yourself, even if you reach a desired color, if the hair isn't filled first, the color will fade quickly.

Answer 8

To be honest id go the hairdresses to get it shorted, Only for the simple fact Bleeched blonde is the worse colour to do your hair with, it wrecks your hair! My boyfriend had blonde bits & wanted all his hair dark so he had to get it done in the hair dresses & they but special stuff on the blonde bits b4 dying it! You could end up with green/orange hair!

Answer 9

ooowwww....please try to go to a hairdressers! as a last last LAST resort if its not possible, use clairol nice and easy. But it could easily go green or orangey depending on how much red is in your hair so it'd be so much better to see a pro. good luck mate xxx

Answer 10

Use Loreal its real safe for your hair, thats the same one i used and it lasts for a long time too.
