Hair color mess up!

Asked Jun 3, 2007, 12:43 AM — 3 Answers
My normal hair color is medium brown, I recently colored it at home and it is a raspberry red color! Not horrible, but not me! I want to recolor my hair at home but don't know how to get the brown color back and remove the red. What color do you suggest I get to remove the red?

Thank you!

Well the red is a very hard colour 2 get rid of I suggest you die it a mahogany red and leave it 4 a while the brown won't come back you will have 2 go 2 the hairdresser and strip the colour out then let her town it down 4 you that's the only way or dye it a mahogany brow at home

You don't need to strip your hair. Simply choose a medium ash brown color to neutralize the reddish tones. Leave the hair color mixture on your hair for 10 minutes then rinse it out.
