It will come out soon, but you should not have used permanent haircolor on your highlighted hair, you should have used a temporary dye, and always leave the color as long as instructed in the box, or you can risk stained hair.
Anyway, to get rid of it faster, buy some deep-cleaning shampoo like Neutrogena, and mix it with some baking soda in the palm of your hand. Apply it to the hair and leave for a couple minutes. Rinse it out. Follow with a hot oil treatment. Your hair will look a lot lighter after just this one wash/hot oil.

Get a lighter hair dye, one that matches your own colour. Those loreal ones are rather good with the highlights in the box. But dont over do it and get a really light one to compensate for the darkness of your hair now or you'll get redish tones.
It might just be that the dye is still fresh... I dyed my hair darker and it looked really bad for the first week, but after a few good washes it does tone down to a more natural - looking colour.

It's the hairdressers for you, sorry can't help. You know it usually states on the box of dye to do a strand test, and I have to confess I have never done the test, so I think I'm lucky not to have had a disaster. Hope all goes well and you get sorted at the hairdressers.

Honey, I've colored my hair blond all of my life and I've done what you did before,getting the werong shade.The biggest problem is the damage done to your hair by color. If you plan to go lighter by yourself I think you should do some hot oil treatments,VO5 makes a good one, and use a deep conditioner and leave it on for a few hours. Then it will be O.K. to use a lighter shade of blonde. If you can afford it have a stylist fix it.
The worst thing I ever did was color my hair then dive into a newly clorinated pool ! My hair was bright green for ages !

If you don't mind paying a hairdresser than that is definitely your best course of action. They should be able to sort the colour out and give you some tips on keeping it healthy and what treatments will work with it.

howdy , i desire to advise do going to a salo, perhaps get the dye out ? And cut back your hair , it's going to enhance back. you're able to attempt organic remedies for lightening darkish hair , indexed under are some- Swimming in oceans, sea, lakes, swimming pools, etc lightens you hair. you're able to attempt the lemon juice way yet i do no longer reccomend it because of the fact it ruins your hair. I certainly reccomend making use of heat tea, like each organic form , in the bathe , pour heat tea over your hair, and comb it to the ends , you ought to pour it some situations to get the coloration you like. Then bypass away it for some million/2 an hour to an hour and rinse. or you need to use henna powder that's the main primary approach. i think of it incredibly is actual hair dye would not artwork the way you like during pregnancy ? good success with your hair and being pregnant !(: x

Go to a stylist and get it stripped. It will take it back to your natural color. It is the best thing you can do right now. If you keep on adding colors on top of one another you will end up in a worse position then you are now. Plus, you can really damage your hair by dying it so much at one time.

If you don't mind paying for a hairdresser then I'd book an appointment, ask for a colour technician, its a speciality that not all hairdressers are equally good at.

I may have answered you before about this and i think that I told you that you shouldn't mess with it but go back to the salon. However a few years a go I would have tried what you did myself so it'a live and learn experience.Trust me on this :quit while you're ahead and go to a proffessional to get it fixed. Good luck, hair issues can be rather traumatizing
