HELP! Hair colour gone awry.?!
Question:
Well I had black hair, and went to the salon to get it done blonde. It didn't turn out and now its yellow.. I was wondering, would it be a good idea to use a box? I have one but it is meant for medium blonde hair (mine is really light and yellowy right now) So do you reckon it would make my hair yellower or blonder?
Answers:
Oh, dear. If I were you, I'd go back to the salon, talk to the owner and try to convince them to do it over for free, since they seem to have ruined it the first time. (Ask for a different stylist to do it the second time, of course.) Be very careful about which color or color combination you choose.
If you decide to try at-home coloring, choose a shade that's just one or two shades different from your current shade and be sure to follow all the instructions carefully. Good luck!

You need to let your hair rest for a couple days. You did something tramatic to it. Your not going to want to use one that is meant for the wrong color hair. Make sure its close to your new color.
I'm not sure, but whatever you do do not start from scratch. My friend got a bad dye job once, and she got this stuff to remove hair coloring so she could start fresh. well, her hair turned gray!! it totally removed all the color, so whatever you do, don't make her mistake!
it would probably turn green. really. you know that ashy green from mixing blondes. dont do it. go to your local beauty supply and buy a toner. its a lesson learned you should never die black hair blond you should slowly lighten it and the salon you went to should have told you this.
If you don't want to go back to the salon, call the hotline below before you select a color. You'll probably have to buy 2 different colors and mix them to achieve the look you want. Good luck!

Lots of experience.
If your hair was black originally and you went to that drastic a change then your hair is probably stripped and you should leave it alone for awhile. Recoloring too soon may damage it beyond what it already is. Try asking a different stylist from a reputable salon and see what they reccommend
Black hair is NOT a good candidate for bleaching.it usually has lots of red in it and often bleaches to a very brassy orange/blonde. To get your hair to the color it is has really damaged the strands. You better be very careful, no matter who or when you play again.you will end up with a fried mess on your head. Hair does not repair itself. You might want to consider going darker with browns.blonde is probably not for you or your skin color. And not to be pessimestic, professionals don't do a very good job on many colors of hair.there are always surprises.
first things first don't go back to that saloon. i think u should try to make it blonde
When you want to go from black-blonde you have to take Babysteps. Black has alot of pigments, to remove the pigments you have to bleach your hair. Bleaching your hair is never good for it. When you start out with black, its gonna take a while before you get the color you want.
You might get a grey/red/yellow shade. And thats 'natural'.
What you can do right now is color it in any shade of brown, wait a couple of weeks and then go blonde.
