Ok, so I have naturally light/darkish brown hair with natural blonde highlights. I dyed my hair a haircoler called "Intense Auburn/Sweet Pepper" by Garnier. It turned out BOZO red! I'm freaking out, this has never happened to me before, I just want my hair back! Can I redye it brown again or will the red leak through? Please Help! Thanks! :)
Well red is the one color that will fade out the most quick so you're in luck. What I would do is mix up some laundry soap and water at a 1:1 ratio and wash your hair with that and hot water to make the color fade. You can color your hair again the same day or the next day. However I would advise against using boxed color from the drug store. Those boxes are often years old and some have been sitting on warehouse shelves for up to 6 years so the color is not as good as it once was. Go to a salon is my suggestions. However if you choose to color from a box again and you want to cancel out the red, think about the color wheel. The complimentary color to red on the color wheel is green so that's what will eliminate it from your hair. Any cool toned brown would work to tone it down though, like an ash brown. Since you have a lot of red in your hair already the warm tones will still show through but the ashy-ness of the new color will more likely make it appear more golden brown than red brown
Thanks so much for the advise! I dyed my hair an ash brown and now it's brown not red!! I was so excited to see it! Thanks so much for the answer, you're my savior! Haha!
It would start coming out [[butt it would take like a year or more... ]] for it all to come out so just find a color that looks the most similar to your natural hair color..Quote:
