    Default Fucked up my hair!

    So I went to this lady who did my hair...I wanted to go blonde. Always wanted to try it out. And I heard she was really good. She's been doing hair for like 20 years. Well long story short, my hair is FUCKED up. It's like yellowish at the roots and the rest is brown lol. So I'm going back tomorrow to have her try to fix it. But honestly I'm scared to go back to the same lady. I'm thinking of just dying my hair at home. Instead of going for blonde I'm gunna go in the opposite direction now lol. I'm thinking of doing a very dark brown, almost black with a reddish tint. Any recommendations on a good dye that I can use at home? Also, how do I upload pics here? I wanted to post a pic of my ugly ass hair to show how bad it came out! Lol

    No no no. Request someone else at the salon to do it, or even the manager. Is your hair blonde now? If you try and use a darker colour on it it might not take depending on your shade of blonde. You most likely need to fill it before colouring it anyway. If you use a dark brown or even a black shade over it it may turn out patchy, muddy and damage your hair further. Call the salon you went to and request someone else to do your hair. Just please don't use box colour or try and fix it yourself. Chances are you'll just further damage it. When I'm not camming I work as a cosmetologist so please heed my advice!!

    If you use a dark dye with a red base, the parts of your hair that need to be "filled" should come out okay. I do not know that it will be even though. If you go to Sally's, I'd say Clairol 4BR, demi-permanent.

    I'd go one step further, just ask for/demand your $ back, then go to a place that specializes in fixing color mistakes..I don't know the exact term for this. I would not trust the salon period, they have someone working there, that obviously doesn't have clue, fucking up someone's hair. Sorry, I believe in going all out about this. I am still dealing with someone's fuck up, after over 3 YEARS with a LOT of hair cut off too (my hair's long) I had previously had good results w/this hair stylist, & she does have experience. Experience means nothing, if they don't care/get lazy/in a hurry/whatever. I would also report the salon to the state license board, and the Better Busines Bureau if they don't/won't give you your $ back. (you can do this online)

    Yeah, I called the salon and they said I would have to have it fixed by her. Umm why the fuck would I want to go back to the girl who fucked it up in the first place!? And my hair was (still is, but she cut off way more than I asked her to) long too. I just don't want to she'll put $200+ dollars at another place, especially right before the holidays. Still gotta do my Xmas shopping and all that. So I guess I'll go back to her and see if she can somehow avoid fucking it up more, and at least make it even. It's brown except maybe 4 or 5 inches at the crown of my head. That part is a horrible attempt at blonde, but more of a yellow orangish. Looks terrible.

    NO NO NO!!! Go back there demand your $ make a scene if necessary, especially at a busy time! Cripes, they cut it off too?! They are SUPPOSED to refund you! Trust me, they won't like dealing w/BBB & the state licensing board. They are trying to keep your $, which they're not entitled to!
    DO NOT GO BACK to that hairdresser! OMG, who knows what she'd do this time??! How can she fix it, when she doesn't know what she's doing in the first place? "You'd HAVE to have it fixed by her", NO, YOU DO NOT!

    Yeah, I wouldn't. The hair is yellow because it needs to be toned. As far as the brown part-- it's up to you. If you want to do it at home, you could potentially match it to the yellow and then tone it all. Or, you could dye the top part a corresponding brown. I went from dyed black hair (with brown underneath) to blonde in three days and my hair wasn't in the greatest shape before hand. Now, I did have good hair for maybe a month and then I ended up chopping off a bunch of inches because I was personally tired of long hair. If you want blonde hair, I'd probably say learn how to do it yourself (coconut oil is very necessary) because the upkeep is kind of insane even if you don't mind rocking roots for a few weeks.

    Well I went and got it "fixed" and it looks better. But it's still a little bright. I think maybe it just needs to be toned more...would the purple shampoo work to make it less bright? Or I'm thinking of adding highlights and lowlights to even it out a bit more. Are those hard to do at home? Or would it be too damaging to my hair to even try it, since it just went through getting dyed 2 times already this week?

    I would NOT be dying it at all anymore for awhile. I don't know about the shampoos, basically they deposit water based color which washes out Hard to say how it would look/react on your hair now. Treat your hair very gently, use shampoo, conditioner, leave in conditioners for damaged hair. Very little to no heat styling

    Purple shampoo is supposed to knock out the yellow tones, but if your hair is particularly porous right now, it could grab a bluish-purple tint. It would wash out after a few attempts, but it is still annoying. I would not put more bleach on your hair right now, nor a developer over 10, 20 max.

    Thanks guys! I'll prob just leave it alone for now, since it's not too terrible anymore.i have curly hair so it'll be pretty easy for me to avoid heat styling for a little while, just throw some mousse in there and let it air dry...I used the purple shampoo today but don't see any difference...it's still kinda bright. Anyways...I don't think light hair looks good on me. Which surprises me because I'm fair complected, always thought I could pull lighter hair off lol. But how long should I wait before I dye it again?

    Trust me, I'm never going back there again! Lol. My hair is down to my waist, not quite to my butt. It wasn't really damaged at all. Before this it had been about a year that I hadn't had it dyed.

    Ok, good. Well, it's long, long hair's older hair, it always needs gentle treatment. Just give it at least 6 months? Again, if you feel you need to dye it consult w/someone who's good. What I do is when not working, I wear it up in a bun, with a wooden stick to protect the ends. Sleep on a satin pillowcase, they also have satin wraps for your head.

    you need to go somewhere that specializes in color correction. as long as it doesn't feel fragile you can still dye it immediately. I would leave a lot of keratin conditioner on it overnight first and follow the dye with another keratin treatment. if it is bright yellow then you need a toner that is a little darker. if you want it very pale ash blonde then you need to bleach the yellow out. Keune makes a fabulous conditioner that makes my hair feel so healthy after every time I bleach it. http://www.keune.com/products/care-l...ve-hair-repair
