    Default Heeeeeelp Meeeeeeeee!!!

    OK, so I have pretty, naturally blonde hair. For the longest time though, I have talked about dying it light blonde... but was too scared of fucking up a good thing.

    Today I got my nerve up....

    and it's like BRIGHT BLONDE

    what can I do?? I'm not happy at all...

    Tone it?

    Bright how? Bright like platinum white, or bright like the sun all orange/brassy yellow?

    shimmer lights should be good for a temporary fix.. i use it about 3 times a week to keep my hair from turning that brassy yellowish blonde color.

    I'd try a toner in 9N. Use 9A if it's really brassy. I wouldn't really go lighter than a level 9. If you do you are looking at going a really light Playboy blonde. In my experience though, with super light hair you have to worry as much about it grabbing ash tones as grabbing gold.

    Also remember any toner you use is going to fade some if you've bleached your hair before hand. If you only used high-lift color, I'm not really sure, but I believe the fade will be much less.

    ok - update. I went to a different stylist today and had a toner put in.. and I believe they used 9N, coincidently It does look playboy blonde, but I can handle that... I couldn't handle the yellow tint. It was so gross. I felt like big bird. or a highlighter. or a light bulb. you get the point...

    I think I may still try the purple shampoo in a few days though... once my hair isn't so porous..
