I've been coloring my hair for almost ten years. Now, I want it to go away *but* I also don't want to cut my hair. There are color-removers available. Would my hair end up purple/green or fall out? I've had cancer and don't wanna be bald again.

My natural color WAS dark brown; I colored my hair brown to cover the grey. Now I'm old enough not to worry about it. So I want to go natural but they don't make a grey hair dye. *big smiley*

Yes, unfortunately they don't make grey haircolor! Color removers work reasonably well, but they'll never remove every bit of color from your hair. Especially if your current color is lighter than your natural ( for example, if your hair is grey with a little brown, and you've been coloring it a light brown or blonde. Your natural color would have been lifted, and no color remover can restore it to it's natural darker shade.) Your best option might be to start using a semi-permanent color, same shade as the permanent color you now have. It will fade out in 4-6 weeks, but just continue doing this until you've cut off the ends with the permanent color. This way you won't have to live with just growing it all out, and having horrible roots. Good luck!

As a hairdresser its hard to give a consultation on line without seeing your hair, firstly you don't give the colour of your processed hair and what condition its in if you can provide these i would be quite happy to give you some advice, but the best thing really is to seek out reputable salon in your area and book a consultation with a qualified senior stylist.
good luck x

The safest thing you could do is choose a colour very close to your original one and dye your hair for the last time. This way, you don't need to cut your hair. I wouldn't recommend using all the colour remover stuff because some can be a little harsh on your scalp.
Best of luck!

Try coloring your hair like your natural shade at first so you dont see a drastic change.. and then just let the color fade so that it could blend with your new hair.

whilst i became youthful, it became easy blonde, now after having toddlers and nearing the age of 50 it is grimy blonde with some patches of gray right here and there. I shade mine to as quickly as I can too and function a tendency to choose for the reddish blonde, it particularly is my famous : )

i don't think that your hair would turn any weird colors if you were to seek the advice of a professional that is my only advice.
