I just dyed my hair about 3-4 shades lighter than my natural shade and it looks horrible. I want to redye my hair to my natural color
is that okay on my hair? Keep in mind that I have strong healthy hair that I don't color often.

yeah you have strong healthy hair right now, but if you lay another permanent color over that process right away, that will no longer be the case.
If you absolutely cannot wait the week that your hair needs to rest, make sure you only use a temporary, or low peroxide semi- permanent color, which wont damage your hair.
(Ideally, you need a week before re- applying a level 3 or 4 product)
If you're unsure, you can always throw in the towel and go see a color expert!
Good luck.

yes you can recolor it. I suggest by a professional, cuz that home stuff is harsh and I'm not sure about how your hair will feel after. But having worked with professional color I know you can do that, and a permanent dye is not necessary-just a semi when going back darker. It will grab and act as a permanent color-it won't just wash out. It will fade just a bit but that might be a good thing because it can grab darker than you want initially. also-don't use anything ash based, over the lighter hair this will look really drab and muddy and possibly green-your better off with a bit of a warmer tone or just natural.

It would be fine to color your hair again, but you wouldn't get the exact same shade and the texture would be different. The color might also be darker because your hair is now light, so try to get a shade that was a bit lighter than your natural hair color.

Yeah you can dye it again. But it may not go back to your orginal color. Since you made your hair lighter it may be more difficult to go back dark this soon is you are doing this at home and not in a salon. Also what can be a problem is that you dye it back and its fine at first but then your hair may start to lighten back to the color that you previously dyed it. I think the best thing is to get it dyed back professionally.

NO!!!!!!! Do Not do that!!! If you dye your hair again, your hair will begin to fall out. you should wait around 4-5 weeks til u dye your hair another color. On www.clairol.com you can put a pic. of your self andchoose a color you wold like to dye it, andyou can see how you look like before actually dying your hair that color.

Do you like your strong healthy hair? Because you will have ugly, dry, damaged hair. But if you do it make sure you get some really good deep conditioner.

...get the closest color to your own natural mix about a 1/2 oz shampoo with the color and put all over hair that is dry..leave 40 mins........ad a little water suds it up Real well then rinse and condition.......................leave a few of the lighter strands out around your face ...it should look great...............
