How Do I Get Rid Of Blonde Spots In My Hair When Transitioning From Light Blonde To Brunette

Hair Coloring: I dyed my hair blonde but my ends are green and mid shaft is dark orange and roots are light? How can I fix this? (I wanted light caramel)

First, I have a question: are you using box color? Have you used box color in the past?The two major causes for color results such as yours are:-The reaction to underlying pigments previously added to your hair (from dye)or-A reaction to medication that may have been in your system when you previously dyed your hair.I've seen this happen before in salons and it sounds like what you're dealing with is not that uncommon.Generally if you've got green ends, it means you've used black or dark brown color before. Black hair dye often has green underlying pigments, which cancel out orange/brassy tones. If you used box color, the dyes are harsher and harder to cover-up, unless you "strip-out" the old color.If your mid-shaft is orange, same story. The color you may have dyed your hair with had copper/golden tones but was not at the same color level as the blonde you have added, therefore your midshaft is not going to match your roots, when your roots are the "virgin hair" (hair that has not been chemically treated before.) Try to think of it this way: imagine you're coloring with colored pencil. First you used a black pencil, which as we know is the hardest color to cover-up. Then you went over the black with an orange or brown pencil. The black may be less apparent, but it's still there, just masked by heavy coloring. Last, you go over the orange/brown and black, with a yellow pencil. It's not going to look yellow, right? You have all that dark pigment underneath and you simply cannot color over it. You'd have to erase all the previous colors in order to see the "true yellow."That's the same thing with hair.The best solution for you is color correction, in a salon by a hairdresser. The process often involves going into your hair and attempting to tone out the underlying pigments you don't want. For your ends, they'll add orange or red, since they cancel out cool colors like green. For the orange mid-shaft, they may add purple, as purple cancels out orange. Once your hair is more or less an even tone, then they'll add the caramel.It's not the quickest or cheapest process, but unless you're okay with going to a darker color that can cover the orange and green pigments, color correction is your best bet.The chart below will explain what I mean by color "levels" and "underlying pigment." Anytime you consider coloring your hair in the future, refer to this before making your decision, it will save you lots of time and money.

I bleached my hair too white, what can I do to get it back to blonde?

It depends on the first# on the toner/color which determines how dark the color will be.The higher the#, the lighter the color.If your white, you are a lv.10 so choosing a toner in a lv.8–9 would be good, use with 10vol developer only for no more lift to occur.

Do you hide your grey hair or embrace it?

I found my first gray hair at 13, and started coloring my hair to hide the grays around age 25. By the time I was 50, the gray roots would start showing within days of coloring. It was costing me a lot of money and TIME (Ugh - the time!!!) to keep hiding those grays, so right before my 51st birthday, I decided to embrace my grays.I have LOVED every minute of my gray hair transition. The gray hair brightens up my face, and it’s so unique - nobody with gray hair looks the same, because everyone’s gray grows a different way,in different patterns.My hair is practically black underneath (framing my face), but silvery-white on the top layer. The color is AWESOME.And the texture? It’s amazing - not coarse and wiry, but smooth, SHINY and healthy!Now that I know all this, I wish I had never started dyeing. But I was so afraid of looking “old.” Never dreamed my silver strands would make my look younger, and that I’d be so darn happy doing it!Here are some pictures from my transition so far:February 2018:Last time I dyed my hair - it looks SO fake and one-color to me now:About 5 months into my gray hair transition (I went cold turkey, meaning I haven’t colored it or done any processes except getting my hair trimmed every 8 weeks):This final photo is around 10 months into the transition. As you can see, my hair dye is really fading (I do use blue shampoo every so often to try to tone down the brassy orange tones that come out in fading brunette dye).But the color that’s coming in? It brightens the hell out of my complexion! I never dreamed it would take years off my face.So, to answer your question - I DO embrace the grays. I only wish I had started sooner.I even started a blog about it for women who are considering ditching the dye. So many of the stories out there about going gray are about fear and trepidation, but I celebrate it - it’s so freeing to throw off the societal constraints and just enjoy being yourself! (Whatever that means to you)

What do I do if I want my hair back to its natural colour and I bleach it and then dyed it blonde and then dyed it again dark brown. How can I get my hair back to its natural colour, is it possible to remove bleach from hair?

After using a bleaching treatment, you have stripped all pigmentation out of the shafts of your hair. So, you have to redeposit the colours back into the hair, moving up the colour chart from white to brown.I'm sure you have seen people who have yellow hair that intended it to be blonde. It's because they didn't take it down to the level past yellow. Black to browns to orange to yellow to white. You have to fill the shaft of hair with the colours, depending on how light you took it with the bleach.It can be done, I'm a senior stylist and colour Tech. If you are trying to do this on your own, I need some details please.May I ask what is your natural colour? In order to help you out, I need to know what colour you are now. Level if you know it. I also need to know what your natural is. Hair is made up of several colours, so if you can give me details about colour you pull when you first used the bleach, it can also help. For example, I'm a level 5 brown and my hair pulls copper and gold no matter what I use. Do you know what you pull and what level you are at now? As well as what you want to achieve?

My hair is bleached medium blonde, what volume developer should I use to dye it red?

Don’t know how light it is, but the bleached hair will grab the color. If it is really a medium blonde and the same level or lighter than the target level, it should be easy.Semi permanent or Deposit only color in the red you want with the same level or slightly darker and 10 volume peroxide. If your hair is bleached light blonde, there’s no contributing pigment and it’s a different deal.Always apply color to clean, damp hair. It’s much easier to work with and it works better.See my video, why apply dry, when wetter is better.:

I had my black hair bleached and then dyed brown at a hair salon. If it fades, will it fade to black, or will it face to my bleached blonde hair?

It will fade to the bleached color. Bleach doesn’t fade. When you bleach hair, you strip the color out. When you dye it, you add color, which washes out. HOWEVER, it will most likely not fade to the lightest it was when bleached—rather, it will fade to some sort of orange-ish or green-ish hue left over from the dye (which one depends on the color of the dye, i.e. if it veers red or blue), since dye will usually stain the bleached hair a bit.Typically, once you start dyeing your hair, you can’t just let it go and hope it will return to something decent-looking on its own. I currently have very intense burgundy red hair (coming from a natural medium/dark brown) , and the last time I let it grow out on its own, the whole area that had been red faded to a dull light orange that was in no way flattering, and 4–5 inches of dark roots… I finally had to go to the salon to get it dyed a nice rich chocolate color, which eventually allowed me to go back to my natural color, since the transition between the last dye and my natural hair wasn’t very great.Having done a lot of crazy stuff with my hair, especially as a younger girl, I kind of got used to having two-three different colors in my hair from regrowth and fading, but it’s not a look I would recommend, particularly in a professional environment.Long story short: if you make dramatic changes to your hair, you will have to deal with dyeing it back to your natural color several times in order to go back to your natural color.

Can you dye your hair if its already bleached?

Yes, you can definitely dye bleached hair. I do this for clients almost every day. But please have it done at a professional salon. There are good reasons for this:Store-bought box dyes are one-size fits all, or more accurately, one-strength-fits-all, meaning they are made with the highest concentration of chemicals so that they will work on most all hair types across the spectrum. Putting strong chemicals on bleached hair is damaging hair that has already been compromised. Even if it is “all natural” or “naturally derived” it is still very, very strong and can cause hair to break off or in severe cases melt off.Almost all salons and colorists will “tone” hair after bleaching it. This is simply using dye on bleached hair, but at a lower “volume” or strength, to add pigments that shift the blonde color in certain directions (platinum, sandy, icy, strawberry, etc.) away from plain yellow and orange. This is completely normal.If you want to go DARKER, you can use a dark brown or black ammonia-free hair dye (semi- or demi-permanent) with a low-level salon peroxide developer (generally 6-10 volume) that simply deposits color on your lightened hair. Professional colorists should also mix formulas that “fill” the hair with missing pigments that were lost during the bleaching process so that the end result looks natural and not muddy, greenish or grey.If you want to go LIGHTER you will need to bleach your hair again. I recommend waiting at least two weeks MINIMUM between bleaching sessions to allow your hair to recover. I definitely do NOT recommend trying to use a lighter-colored dye on your hair, which could cause extensive damage and will likely not turn out anywhere close to the desired color.Direct-dye fashion colors such as Pravana (without ammonia or peroxide) and temporary vegetable dyes (such as bright pinks, reds, blues and purples) are generally safe to use on bleached hair. The only downside is bleached hair is technically compromised (damaged) already, so bright colors will fade quickly and require regular upkeep.So yes you can, but please be careful and choose a dye that will not cause further damage.
