Hello there readers,
I dyed my hair about a week or two ago from a dark brown to black. At first I liked it but now I am sick of it and want to go back to dark brown, I don't know what to do! The product I used was L'oreal Paris Superior Preference, and the box says that it is level 3- Permanent. If I have to I will wait until it grows out but I want it out asap. What should I do?:confused:

Help fade it out with a clarifying shampoo. Some members on here have said that head and shoulders has helped to fade hair colour. The more you use it, the more the colour will fade. These types of shampoos are quite drying, so remember to use conditioner afterwards. :)

The fastest way is to bleach it, which will turn it an Irish red color. Then two days later fye it dark brown. I have been dying my hair black for years, but every now and then I get a role that calls for a different color and that's how I have always done it. You could keep washing it out, but that's not exactly the fastest.

I went through the same thing you did... I used PALMOLIVE LIQUID DISH SOAP as a shampoo for about a week with GARNIER FRUCTISE EXTRA MOISTURE CONDISTIONER... I would wash my hair let the SOAP sit for FIVE MINUTES then rinse... put CONDITIONER in (alot! ) and let it sit for TEN MINUTES... I would rinse it out and then put GARNIER FRUCTISE SLEEK AND SHINE HAIR SERUM in and COMB out with a FINE TOOTH COMB so it was distributed EVENLY... DO NOT BLOW DRY... do this for a WEEK and your hair will go from BLACK to LIGHT medium BROWN... fading drastically...

Go to the salon and get your hair lightened... and please don't use boxed dye. It's so bad for your hair.
