    If it is dyed black then you probably need bleach because black hairdye is hard to fade and get out

    If you're unsatisfied with the results then I suggest that you go back to the salon and have the hairstylist fix your hair. You would have to use some kind of hair lightening product to get a lighter shade, such as a high strength volume peroxide developer or bleach. Do not attempt to fix it yourself, it may result in a red/orange shade. The hairstylist will most likely mix a formula with a high strength volume peroxide developer to achieve your desired color without the brassy color.
