S.O.S. Major Hair Crisis! When Can I Go Back To My Natural Blonde Color?!?

Here's what happend in a nutshell: I have naturally dirty blonde hair and it gets natural highlights in the summer. It's October and I wanted to lighten up my roots so I used this no-ammonia "natural affects" hair color which only seemed to darken my hair. So, I decided to use Herbal Essances "blonde bombshell". BIG MISTAKE. It wiped out my natural roots making my hair one single extremely light strawberry blonde color. Horrible. So, I went for "constructive coloring", spent about $200 for them to fix it which resulted in: light redish/brown on top, and darker redish/brown on the bottom!! Horrible again.

Q: When/how can I get my dirty blonde hair back? Please help. :(

If I were you, I would leave it alone for awhile.. Constantly coloring it will only destroy it more... I should know, I just royally screwed up my hair not too long ago...

Since u died it the color should fade in 3 to 4 weeks.

Wow sorry that was so terrible for you. I would say you have two options but either one will take waiting time...it is recommended you wait 2 weeks or more between coloring. If I were you I would get it colored again but at a nice salon. I know paying the money sucks but I would go to one that is known for coloring or call around to the fancier places and ask if they have a color specialist - then make an appointment with them. I would bring an old picture for them to base the coloring on and ask if they can put some high or low lights in there to get that dirty blond look. They will do what looks most natural. Best of luck to you!!! For now go easy on your hair and maybe use organic stuff and maybe a gentle leave in repair mask...If it is dry mix up some honey and olive oil- nuke it for a few seconds and apply that to your hair. A little goes a long way- it's amazing - i have really dry hair and it makes my hair shiny and wonderful. Just put it on for 20 minutes then wash out with shampoo.

Hope this helps!!!
