Will I fry my hair?

Question

HI. I have light brown hair and have home highlighted it a few times over the past year with a real light blonde. Not all of it-just streaks. Then I colored it all to match my regular color to start over (always waiting months in between). Then I highlighted it again. I got alot cut off recently (including layers and it got dark again so I highlighted it again but my cousin screwed up and only got the back done. She got the front but left it on for about 10 minutes. The next day I got another kit and did where she did it for only 10 minutes and then some-so I have almost all bleach blonde hair. Now, I want to put some darker streaks in to even it out but will it kill it? This highlighting just happened a few days ago? I take care of my hair with good products and everything but I don't want it fried. How long should I wait or should I not do it at all? Help me please!!

Answer 1

Even if you've had good luck in the past coloring your hair at home, now would not be a good time to fix it yourself. If you have "bleach blonde" hair, those light pieces may grab the dark color . This could result in a grey or greenish tint if not done properly. You should probably go to a salon to get it fixed. If this isn't an option because of money, maybe consider just living with it. It doesn't sound that bad, especially if your natural color is a light brown.

Answer 2

It sounds to me like you should leave it alone for awhile. You sound like you don't know what you want, light, dark, light ,dark, and now bleached blonde, I would say your hair is fried, deep fried. I would not touch it for at least a month. luck

Answer 3

Wait at least a week. Then use a semi permanent color. It's not as damaging as permanent.

Answer 4

i don't think you should dye it any more than it already is!!
