I normally get it done with my hairdresser, I did it myself, the hair is so dry, like straw, what can I do? It's fried like an electric jolt. I left the dye-in-the-box in too long. Is there some sort of home remedy to bring back the softness, or does anyone know of an ace treatment product? thanks so much....

Break 2 eggs and mix it with mayonnaise. Cover your hair with it.
You could do the same with some avocado, smash them up and lather your hair with it.

Well you most likely did it wrong, because when I dye my hair at home it comes out better than when I get it done at a salon. You shouldn't leave it on longer than is suggested. And you should have washed your hair 24 hours before dying. This allows the natural oils in your hair to protect your scalp and hair shaft. If there's any product the color may not stay, so next time wash your hair the day before, don't blowdry or straighten it (if you do) and don't use any products. Also do a deep conditioning treatment a couple days after you've dyed it to keep your hair soft and less fried looking.
You can try some olive oil. Take a teaspoon of it, if you have long hair, use a tablespoon. Apply it to the ends first, then comb it through your hair so it gradually gets up to the roots. Let it sit on for 10 minutes and then wash out in the shower. You don't really have to use conditioner, but if you need to that's fine. Also, if it still feels greasy, you most likely put too much in, just shampoo it again. I just did this last week because I have very dry, static prone hair, and since then my hair has been fine, and very soft. I suggest you try this.

I have left my hair dye in a half hour longer than advised before, and nothing happened. Did you not use the conditioner in the box, or did you not buy a product that comes with a conditioner? You can buy the color and the developer separately, and I imagine that is what you did if your hair is really that bad, but you have to also buy a packet of professional conditioner to use after you dye your hair. Try a beauty supply store, the packets usually cost under two dollars.

Put mayonaise in your hair, then put a plastic bag over it. Then let it sit for 30 to 45 minutes (do not go outside in the sun while your are doing this) . Then rinse, condition (leave in conditioner may work best) and style (just don't use hot setting in hair blower, use medium or lowest setting). Good luck.

I really wouldn't put "food" in your hair. Uusally ends up bad and smelly. I would suggest a product called Queen Helene Hot Oil Cholesterol teratment. It sounds gross, but it will work wonders. Also, try to stay away from heat styling you hair for a bit. It will just dry it out more.

A do at home hair mask:
Olive oil
Vitamin E
Essence of any other oil-lavendar, rose, vanilla, etc
mix together, coat hair especially ends, wrap in a plastic bag, wash hair, condition.
Get a trim from your stylist ASAP!
If your hair is still coarse try Biosilk hair serum. Don't wash hair everyday. Avoid heat appliances

No but maybe try washing it, then using a deep conditioner with an egg mixed in, maybe leave it on for an hour or 2 and then it should be better, or if you can get a reconstructor.

You need to do a deep conditioning treatment. You can do it at home, but it wouldn't hurt to call a salon and ask an expert for some advice.

The best thing you can do is try to go to a store and buy prantene.Use the one for your hair color that you died and see what happenes after that.If that doesn't work try putting an egg yolk in your hair.It worked for my hair when I did it!
