I'm a dark blonde natrually although i had light blonde highlights, my roots were coming through so I had them touched up but they went a very bright shade of yellow. Then i put a blonde hair dye over the yellow and now have a green tint to my hair... what colour is best to dye over this disaster?!

I had he same problem once. I used an ashe blonde on my hair and it turned green...I went to a Salon and asked what to do...here is what they suggested..I used lemon and baking soda mix. It will strip your hair. Now this process is not good for your hair so u have to use a oil treatment or two after wards. u also may have to do it a few times. I wouldn't color again until u do this. Also they have a kit at wal-mart made to remove color from your hair. u can try that but it contains a peroxide in it so it will bleach your hair so be careful. Good luck!

If the high lights are to much for you to keep up with, get rid of them. Its not good to use hair color that you can buy in a grocery store(box color). they are called metalic dyes- Box color strips your hair of everything and then deposits color into your cuticle. causing the cuticle tons of stress (once your cuticle is blown it will never allow your hair to be colored a darker color, you could only color your hair a lighter color and ultimatly kill your hair and need a hair cut) If you are going to color your hair at home go to a sally beauty supply or something like that where you have to buy the color and a developer. they will help you there, but if you want to get rid of your highlights and make your hair darker all you need is a 10 or 20 volume developer. if you want to lighten your hair you can use a 30 or 40. high light are hard to alone unless you use a cap. and if your hair is thick and long this will take forever... also they have toners. if your hair gets to much of a brassy tone use a blue violet toner.. I really hope i didnt confuse you and that this helps.

You probably used an ash blonde..Check the base color on the package. Ash has a green base coat and the highlights grabed that base color.The damaged hair soaks in the base color.
I would advise a hairstylist.
But get a color with blonde with a beige It has a pink base and will cancel some of the green. use10 volumn peroxide you want to deposite color.Just acording to how green it is.You may have to have a dark blonde with a red base. 10 volumn agine.Remember we want to deposite color. Id try the light one first. Then condition and use a color shampoo so it wont stripe the color off to bring back the green.
When you use to many chemicals on your hair soooner or later it will be damaged so much it wont hold color or you wont get a true color no matter what you use.

Try the tomato juice soak. The red in the juice will neutralize the green in many cases.
I had that happen to me a few tmes while I was in college. Dying it brown will only partly cover the color & it may show green thru in the light. Going lighter again will cause more damage to your hair. If you can wait a few days & just condition you will have better benefits when you go to redye your hair. You can go to Sally's Beauty Supply & get a color remover & try over.

it sound disgusting but try tomato sauce(yes i am being serious) the red will cancel out the green! dont use loads as it could have the opposite effect, then use a blonde shampoo and conditioner and leave it on for a while it will tone the colour slightly!!!

This happened to my friend. Her hairdresser put ketchup in her hair. i am not joking. There is something in ketchup that takes the green out of the hair.
If it does not work on your hair, maybe you should go back to dark blond

Time for a hairdresser! If you keep fixing mistakes...your hair will be so fried you don't have to worry about color. Take your head to a professional to fix this one and then try to maintain it. Seriously!

Put a red mousse on it, then a medium brown colour, but if you want to go blonde go to the hairdressers!!!!! x

for me it depends on the girl. Like I might see a girl with black hair and also think she is totally hot yet see a girl with blond curly hair that is meh and vice versa.
