Colour Correction/ Stripping Hair
Ok i had a topic like 5 months ago about how i got my hair done for my birthday and wanting to go a little darker for winter however it came out waay to dark.
It was a dark dark brown looked black, not to mention i had to go back the next day for her to fix it because she missed some parts of my hair. Overall i HATED it and just bared with it until last week. All i wanted was to get it back to my natural light brown hair colour. So i decided to dye it myself however when i was finished, very upset that only my roots dyed a light brown on top as the rest of my hair stayed that dark colour, so now i'm 2 toned! I tell you i've been having the worst luck with my hair and so i went to go find a upscale salon. Well a friend had told me good things about this place and this lady who does the colouring. So i called and made a consultation appt. Next day went in and showed her and mentioned what all had happend and bascially she said what my mom told me which was that i had to strip that darker colour out of my hair, then she would re-dye it. Also because stripping can damage your hair and my hair is really fine/thin she also recommended that i also get a deep conditioning treatment or whatever. At this point i was so anxious to get this fixed and i had the money to do it. I am very sad to say and very disappointed after leaving and coming home with family telling me my hair looks orange/redish, also come to find out all through-out my hair i noticed blonde patches and on top of all that, it's still 2 toned!!! I mean i know about how people say stripping your hair takes time but my hair wasnt black. She told me it was working really fast and if i had black hair i would be sitting there all day when i was only sitting there no longer than 10mins. I am very concerned about this since i paid a nice amount of $$$ doing this and i am not satisfied at all. I actually have a appt with her tomrw so i can bring it to her attention and see what she will or won't do for me, and i hope for her to fix it with no additional cost, right?
I know i need to give my hair a vacation and let it rest but i really need to fix this, ASAP! Not good for work or school you know.
Does anyone have any advice to help me out? Also how long do i have to wait now until i can re-dye and fix this problem???
Thanks!
