Serious Hair Color Problem!!! HELP!!!!!!?

I have been coloring my hair myself to save money because my hairdresser was charging $70 each time and I had to go every month! I've done it 3 times before this one today...I use the white powder stuff in a tub I think called BW2 from Sallys and a 40 volume developer and have no problems before today...It turned out too light and is kind of yellow around my bangs....I thought the shimmer lights purple shampoo may help so tonight I put it on my hair and left it for 5 minutes and rinsed and then conditioned, when I dryed my hair it looks like there is some purple tint left!!!! Please help...could the shampoo have left a purple color on my hair and what can I do to get my hair not so light?? Maybe a toner but what kind and can I buy something to help my hair from Sallys? Please, Please HELP me!!!

the reason that there is a purple cast is because there are some parts of your hair that is more porous then others. it will wash out with a couple of washings.



i wouldn't put anyting on it at home to go darker, because just like it grabbed that purple....it will grab the undertone of the color you put on it. however, it will not wash out.



you need to only put the bleach on your roots and never on your midshaft and ends! not only will it continue to get lighter, it will also cause breakage!



my call is, this is when you do need a professional. you could also talk to them and tell them why you started doing it at home and they should give you some pointers. i can't tell you too much without seeing your hair. feel free to email me if you want and send me a pic.

I have been there. At my worst, I dyed my hair and it was too blonde, so I stripped it and recolored it the same day. Made my hair feel like straw. I suggest a rinse (probably a dark color to blend in the purple) and a deep condition.

The purple shampoo is meant to get yellow out of hair of people whose hair is grey from environmental causes like smoking, etc.



It can and often does leave some purple behind. Try washing your hair with club soda to wet it, regular shampoo, then club soda to rinse, then water.



As for a toner, yes Sally's has them, but you have to be very careful what you use because you can turn your hair some very unwanted shades with toners. Some of the Sally's employees know what they're doing and will help. You might be better off with a light colored semi-permanent color that has no developer and that will only color your bleached hair, not your unbleached hair. Something like Beautiful Blondes may fit the bill. In the future let a pro do your hair, just try to find one who's affordable. Maybe a beauty school in your area has a salon where they do work for little money. You'd get a coloring from a student who's ready to graduate under the guidance of a teacher and the student would get needed experience and the school would get some money. An all-around good thing.
