I am a natural blonde. About a month ago I dyed it and was hoping for a dark brown, but it turned black. Today I decided I wanted to go back blonde. After I colored it... to me is looks orange/red. It did try to go blonde in some spots though. However my mother thinks it looks like a strawberry blonde. Either way, I hate it. Since I have to wait eight weeks before I can color it again, what can I use to dull/strip this color quicker. I plan on washing it more often, but is there anything else I can do?? Please help!!

This is a big mistake a lot of people make, trying to dye their hair so dramatically. (I've been a victim too)
It is impossible to go from black to blonde hair in one dye job. You need to take steps. (ex. Black to dark brown wait 2 months, dark brown to med brown. Wait 2 month... and so on) without taking steps it goes an orange colour. You can dye your hair a medium brown colour. But this is going to take quite some time to fix. Definitely go to a salon, they will help you fix this.
